â¢Download a song in 4 seconds
â¢Upload a photo in 6 seconds
â¢Videoconferencing without the jitter or stutter
â¢Upload 10MB PowerPoint Presentations in less than 25 seconds
â¢4.3â WVGA display
â¢Mobile Hotspot capability â share 4G connection with up to 8 Wi-Fi devices
â¢40 GB of storage â 8 GB onboard and 32 GB microSD card included
â¢HTC Sense 2.0 with new features including Fast Boot
â¢Built-in kickstand for easy media viewing
â¢720p HD video recording


The iPhone is 3G and not on Verizon's new LTE network. Cost: $199 for the 16GB, $299 for 32GB -- mobile hotspot included -- Up to 5 devices. The iphone has more apps (~300,000); but the growth rate at which new apps for Android are created is 5x that of Apple (currently 130,000 in Dec 2010 per Distimo's 2010 Full Report)

i had a laptop given to me that has ubuntu on it, which i hate. I installed WINE but i dont know how it works or how i install itunes or skype. I have an iphone so i want to be able to manage it on this computer. I also would like to find a photo program that i can install, a more mainstream one than ubuntu.

In most cases native open source alternatives are available and can be installed using the Ubuntu Software Center

Well worth considering is Linux Mint 9 which is built upon Ubuntu 10.04 Its easy to install and easy to use plus it comes with much of the software you are likely to need preinstalled

You download the ISO. image of Linux Mint 9 then you need to create a Bootable LiveCD for installation

Linux Mint 9 can also be run direct from the LiveCD from Booting up without touching your Hard Drive
