The regional carrier here finally upgraded their network to allow them to carry a broader line of smart phones, so we picked up his and hers Androids today. They're very middle-of-the-line phones by most accounts, but they'll give us a chance to test the waters with this technology and see how we feel by the end of the 24-month contract.

My first tentative experiments with it have really made me come to appreciate the battery life on my iPod. Tomorrow I'll see how the phone fares when it starts with a full charge (it was at 1/4 charge when I was playing with it today).
