What's Noo?

I shouldn't have had to figure out this workaround but I did. It has to do with a glaring flaw on my HTC Thunderbolt smart phone. When you go to the picture gallery, certain pictures and videos seemingly disappear. At first I thought it was my fault. I thought I had forgotten to press some kind of save button to save the pictures and the videos to the gallery.

Personally, I still think it's a great phone and, for many, it's a better fit than an Android-based phone. Which is why I watched with great interest as Apple unveiled its brand-new iPhone yesterday. And also why I was pretty disappointed with the announcement. Why? For starters, Apple didn't announce the iPhone 5 as millions of people expected. Instead, they announced the iPhone 4S.

Last week, I reviewed the HTC Trophy smart phone and expressed my extreme disappointment with the phone. Luckily, there was a Droid Bionic waiting in the wings for me to review.
