    The first phone that harnesses Google Inc.’s ambition to make the Internet easy to use on the go was revealed Tuesday, and it looks a lot like an iPhone. T-Mobile USA showed off the G1, a phone that, like Apple Inc.’s iPhone, has a large touch screen. But it also packs a trackball, a slide-out keyboard and easy access to Google’s e-mail and mapping programs.
  • On the Palin e-mail hacker trail

    Have a fear of commitment but want to reap the benefits of the Verizon Network anyway?

Additionally they can terminate their agreement at the end of any month without paying an Early Termination Fee.
