Do observers still wonder why tablets are all the rage now? More »

From Htcyou: In my estimation, the prettiest Android smartphone on the planet, the aluminum unibody HTC Legend has passed through the FCC’s procedural and is going to Canadian GSM carriers: either Rogers, Bell Mobility, or Telus. For Americans, AT&T; has scored the Legend. More »
