    Looking for ATT Phone

    Thinking of ditching my iPhone 3gs and moving to an android based phone. Best choice out there? Staying on AT&T as I have a decent discount and they gave me an M-Cell so I have great reception at home. Or should I wait until June for iPhone 5?

    Is there a desktop manager in Win7?

    I know for XP there is a power tools addon for 4 virtual desktops. Is there something similar for Win7? I've seen mention of a few 3rd party ones, but peoples experiences with them were all over the place. Does MS have one? Any 3rd party ones that you'd recommend?
