1. A brutal reminder that the Kin One and Two are Microsoft products, via Engadget’s Review. The incredible thing is that, on Verizon in the US, the devices are being sold on a full-rate data plan - putting them firmly in the price range of the “immeasurably better” Palm Pre Plus. Good job, Microsoft.

SIdenote: I know it’s to fit in with this hipster “Generation Y” bullshit market that Microsoft is chasing, but that lowercase ‘OK’ irks me almost as much as sloppy “Ok” buttons.
