Palm Pre: Full Review (Part I)

It seems like every few weeks I open up a paper (I know, so 20th century of me) or browse to a major website where I am greeted by a big, bolded headline that begs the question: Is [insert name of new device here] the iPhone killer?

Motorola Rival A455 Review – In-Depth Reviews from Wirefly

Ari Driessen — Thu, 11 Jun 2009 22:27:03 +0000

The Rival looks cute and cuddly – and my psychedelic purple demo model (also comes in a “Tin Silver” that isn’t so loud) is the epitome of what you would imagine a 14 year old “Texting Tammy” clutching 24/7. Looks can be deceiving, however. And this maxim certainly rings true with [...]
