Looking for a rightful successor to your at this time-aging SCH-R211? Samsung and Cricket would like you to look no further than the SCH-R100 Stunt, a dead ringer for the candybar of the same name that launched on MetroPCS back in December of last year. It turns out this is a little bit more than your average ultra-basic phone, though: Cricket says this device is introducing Bluetooth to the lowest tier of its lineup, a particularly useful feature at this time that using the handset while driving is a no-no in many jurisdictions. It’s available at this time (contract free, naturally) for $99.99.

Want to know how to sell Motorola’s CLIQ XT for T-Mobile in 60 seconds? Look no further than this pamphlet that’s circulating at this time that the carrier is (well, probably is) just days away from release, where we learn all about its 3.1-inch display, touch controls, Flash Lite support (avert your eyes, CLIQ users), and pinch-and-zoom browser navigation, all paired up with a 5 megapixel camera and that love-it-or-hate-it Blur skin atop Android 1.5. Between that little pitch and the gallery down below, we figure it’ll take you about 60 seconds to finish flipping through the whole mess — so are you sold, or what?

The ability to remotely schedule DVR recordings hasn’t hit every Comcast system yet (c’mon Ann Arbor) but that hasn’t stopped the company from delivering version 2.0 of the Comcast Mobile app on iPhone (Blackberry is “coming soon,” no word on webOS, Android or WP7 plans) complete with the aforementioned myDVR manager, an improved TV Guide browser, push notifications for emails and voicemails and more. Comcast Voices blogger Scott McNulty has put together a pretty thorough video demo, embedded after the break (also there for comparison, our video walkthrough of the original release), so give it a look while we doublecheck… again to see if our DVR has gotten a new firmware update, or punch the read link to go straight to the App Store and download.
