		<description><![CDATA[First off, a statement of my bias. I am a happy iPhone owner. I have been since the first generation iPhone came out in 2007 and through each of the five generations that have been sold ever since the late Steve Jobs introduced the device by asking the crowd at the iPhone’s first unveiling “Are [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Amazon has begun selling its newest device under the Kindle name that it adopted a few years back for its line of &#8220;e-book&#8221; reading devices. Because of its size and clout, Amazon really took the whole idea of electronic books from a niche concept to a mass market success. But as the Kindle began really [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve just finished about two weeks with a new iPhone 4S.  Can&#8217;t give you a full review because of constraints on my time.  So let me answer the most frequently asked questions I have gotten about this thing: &#8220;Is it better than the iPhone 4?&#8221;- The short answer is &#8211; yes it is.  But its [...]]]></description>

It seems like its been around so much longer than that. My wife got me one for my birthday not longer after it was introduced. It’s iconic design [...]]]></description>

I like my iPhone 4 just fine, actually&#8211;and really didn&#8217;t want to restart my contract because I&#8217;m [...]]]></description>

But when technology gets out of the way Everything becomes more delightful, even magical. That&#8217;s when you leap forward. That&#8217;s when you end up with something&#8230; like this.&#8221; And the &#8220;this&#8221; we are talking about, is the [...]]]></description>
