Android are certainly starting to kick arse with the help of HTC.
Depending on what Steve Jobs announces on Monday could mean I finally move over to Android from my iphone 3g….
The screen on this thing looks awesome but I'm a bit concerned about battery with that screen and a 1GB processor!
Don't know whether chance to get HTC Evo in the middle east.
I will have to agree with you on this matter: the business marketing is expanding more and more in the virtual world and we need tools that can help us in that world:))
