    What do you think of the droid bionic after a year?

    My only wishes are that I hadn't paid a flagship price for Verizon's red-headed stepchild, and that Moto had kept its promise of unlocking the bootloader. Other than that, I love it. It has officially gotten me hooked on Android. I gave GameStop my one and only Apple product in exchange for...

    Thanks for the free lunch Google/Nexus 7!!

    I won't be using my N7 to pay for everything, but I'm certainly happy to take the free $10. Lucky for me, the vending machines at the office have NFC readers, so I know where I can spend the money without worrying about how to get the tablet there. Thanks Google!

    Extended battery door doesn't fit quite right?

    DanH - There's a quick write-up with a few pictures of them here on this website, but I'm new and can't add links until I have a post, so I'll have to post again right after this one. Regarding size, the fatter portion adds about 2mm when compared to the area at the top. As for the OP, mine...
