"You might have heard the rumors by now: T-Mobile may unveil the first handset based on Google's Android mobile platform next week. That's all well and good, but where are the specifics? How much will the device cost? When will scruffy Linux enthusiasts be able to show up at T-Mobile stores and exchange an old sock filled with coins for one?
According to a post on Fortune's Techland blog, the Wall Street Journal has unearthed a handful of fresh, juicy details about the forthcoming device. T-Mobile will reportedly strike head-on at Apple's iPhone 3G by pricing the Android phone at $199-exactly what AT&T charges for the 8GB iPhone 3G right now, assuming you're willing to sign up for a two-year contract. As for the physical handset, the report says it will come with a touch screen (shocking, we know) and be manufactured by Taiwan's HTC."

The winner of the Pokémon Go Championship grand finals in Orlando was stripped of their title, allegedly for 'unsportsmanlike conduct' during their victory celebration. The celebration involved the winner removing their headset, standing up, and pumping their fists before shaking hands with their opponent. Many believe the ruling was excessive and that winner's victory celebration was tame compared to celebrations by winners in other competitive games.
There are people that get offended seeing others just enjoying a moment, or enjoying a hobby, or just having fun.
Can someone explain to me what is so problematic with this? I watched video multiple times and all I see dude having bit of celebration. None of his actions felt aggressive or seem like they symbolize anything... Like winning sure deserves bit of celebration like that. I mean who wants to live in the world where you aren't allowed to be excited or have bit of burst of happiness when you win? Like was he supposed to act like emotionless robot? He should be allowed to have bit of his victory "hell yeah" moment, even if it is before shaking hands with opponent. Like it is not like he didn't shake hands or whatnot. And it is not like he is like some super serious government official to have to stick to protocol to a letter. This whole thing is just ridiculous.
HTC is great! I hope they can rival the touch tech on the iphone and make it look more like a business phone then a toy.
Anyway, if they get that down, they'll have at least Europe in their pockets.
So is the iphone as big a ripoff in the us as over here.
I think the first one workd out at £900 thats $1800 at the time.
If i'm wrong please correct me.
$1800 for a iphone! dude it cost $600 here.
