So why did they go from dual GTX 280Ms to dual HD 4870 Mobilities? As far as I can tell from online reviews, the 280Ms are better AND cheaper... Is there something I'm missing?

I've had this laptop for 8 months and have no complaints other than the fan is always on, leaving me with a constant hum. It appears to be the case with all DV7's. Has there been a fix issued or workaround?

The only reason why I want to buy this laptop is because it has the ability to run OSX and Windows. If it didn't, it wouldn't be worth the price. Anyone else agree?

As an obsessive phone user, I like to change phones a lot. It seems I tend to do it every month now (currently, on a Blackberry Bold and lovin it). As for the Motorola Backflip, I'm really excited to see this phone in action. I've been wanting to change to a Google Android phone for some time, but hadn't...

Purchased about 6 months ago. This thing has been amazing. It is crazy fast, had a free Windows 7 upgrade included, all for just $399. I'm convinced that you cannot beat the Acer, dollar for dollar.

Finally an awesome Android for At&t

I hate the comparisons between the iphone and everything else as much as the next geek, but does anyone know if google will, or has, implemented a messaging service like BBM into their OS? I want to jump so bad, but I love this feature alone on the crackberries.

I really don't like how the lock screen photos are preset and cannot be changed :( Other than that though isn't this phone great?!
