I think I must have been one the last people to upgrade to the iPhone 3GS. I wasn't that keen on updating considering what I thought at the time was a distinct lack of useful upgrades. Plus, a lot of the phone companies offering the iPhone we're asking me to pay to get out of my current contract. This would have involved me shelling out about $341 plus the cost of the handset. I wasn't prepared to do that, no way! So, ...

Time Magazine has announced the Motorola Droid the Number 1 Gadget of 2009, beating the 3GS iPhone and labeling the Droid as the first real iPhone competitor. The Droid runs the Android OS by Google and Time also states its the best hardware pairing over the HTC Android offerings. To be fair, it's quite a good decision. The 3GS was a lot less ground breaking than the 3G was. Yes, ok, it had boosted specs. Yes it had a video camera. ...

If your anything like us (good looking and very intelligent) you'll be getting sick to the high heaven of 'Tablet' news. But, we do like to report on news in order to be as a complete as possible.
