Mobile blogging (or, moblogging, as it were) opens up so much in the way of productivity, but it also puts a kibosh on all "away from the computer" excuses. Double-edged swords like this are commonplace in the mobile space. With the Palm Centro [...]

Black Palm Centros hitting AT&T stores

After all, it was announced alongside the funkier "Glacier White" Centro.

But what about the iPhone, or some of the Nokia and HTC models? HTC Touch anyone? Anyway, what struck us the most was that the Samsung i760 took a 2nd position in the survey. Say what?
