Multiple manufacturers is very interesting!
And as much as I don't like them, I hope they include AT&T too.

I doubt it. Moto's latest OS rocks (MOTOMAGX).

I thought you were day dreaming again, just like the time you told me that the Colorado cookies won the world series. Just kidding buddy.

Site is looking great. Keep it up. Back to M3. ;)
