So I’m going ahead and rolling my current company\u00a0 Blackberry Curve over to AT&T on a month-to-month family plan.\u00a0 That gets me from behind the deadline, and let’s me do a bit more research on what it is I want to do.\u00a0 The cost comes to about what the company’s giving me a bump in salary.<\/p>\n

My current obsession<\/del> intention is the Droid Incredible<\/a> from HTC, which is running on everyone’s favorite carrier, Verizon, and is actually now Google’s recommendation for a Verizon phone (the Verizon version of the Nexus One is apparently canceled<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Onward and upward!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
