Safari 4 Public Beta has been released and is surprisingly great competition against Firefox. When testing it myself, I decided to switch browsers. Come test it out for yourself!

The buttons could be removed to create a full touch screen environment but this HTC Android phone is still incredible. Watch this Vimeo video to learn more about the new HTC Android phone. With all the copyrights Apple has put on multitouch, Android can not excel with its touch screen abilities. -Kevin...
