Earlier this month at CES, Motorola unveiled its ATRIX 4G smartphone, positioning the device as the world’s most powerful smartphone. Combining some impressive hardware with the new Motorola “webtop” application, it very well could be one of the most sought after smartphones this year. So much so, that we’ve even awarded it with…

There, Microsoft’s competitors have been holding down the fort quite well, and it’s been Redmond doing all of the catching up. The launch of Windows Phone 7 did do well to reinvigorate some of the excitement around…

As we head even further into our digital age, it seems that optical media is soon to become a thing of the past.

I sure do, but I admit that I’m not one to go out and search for them, nor do I get that excited at reading through a billion page build log.
