Seems like only yesterday I was lugging around 5kg laptops, phones the size of bricks and the internet was just something my kid brother was getting excited about. Now we've got sub-1kg laptops/UMPCs, bluetooth headsets the size of my thumb, and I carry my whole digital life with me in a 200g package on my belt - wow. HTC has been a big part of that evolution in the smartphone and PDA world, starting with some of the very first Pocket PCs - so I think some thanks are in order. Happy Birthday HTC, many happy returns, and keep up the good work in keeping us gadget freaks supplied with the latest and greatest! :clap:
