I like the design of this one, at least from the front, which is all we can see for now. The specs also look good. Although I am not too fond of Android, I’ll keep an eye on this one. As usual if this one comes to India, I’ll be one of the first few to handle it.

^ Let’s have another TD meetup when you get this.

NO! I shall run away to some corner of the world and make sure no one gets to see it. *evil laugh*

The “ANDROID” part is the only interesting part.

^ Yep, but the specs are also pretty nice.

I must agree that the SPECS are AWESOME and the cell has nice curves and the Android OS makes this device a beast!! Honestly it is the most funnest, networking and reliable cell on the market, whatever you wish for someone will construct an app and walah!! From Microsoft Word, Excel and etc, to just about anything. This OS is definately the dominating the market!!

(correction)…This Android OS is definately the dominating force in the mobile market!

Hi ? quite fantastic web page you may have produced. I enjoyed reading this putting up. I did want to write a remark to tell you that the style of this website is incredibly aesthetically pleasing. I employed being a graphic designer, now I’m a copy editor. I have always loved working with personal computers and am attempting to learn code in my spare time.
