HDigit Dials In And Brings Us An Android-powered DAB Radio

,----[ Quote ]
| When Android was being built, many only 
| visualized it as a phone operating system: 
| for a long time, phones were the only 
| things you could find Android running on. 
| Since then, weâve seen kitchen appliances, 
| cars, netbooks, tablets, robots â you name 
| it, and Android has probably already seen 
| it.

,----[ Quote ]
| Okay, Iâve had the X10 since 8:30pm last
| night now (but I had to sleep some) so here
| is my initial GutReactionReviewâ. This will
| be quick, and mostly point form. Itâs
| possible that any âproblemsâ I list might
| have solutions, but the whole point is what
| the reaction of a first-time smart-phone
| buyer might be, especially if they arenât
| too savvy, or know how/where to solve these
| things on their own.
