Buzz Moody — HP recently ‘killed off’ their Mobile Operating System, WebOS, which they not long ago acquired when they bought out Palm; but what’s this got to do with Android?

Buzz Moody — It seems that each week Sony Ericsson make me want the Xperia Play even more. First they offered Battlefield: Bad Company 2, then they scored Minecraft Pocket Edition, now they can brag about having more than 150 games that are exclusively optimised for use on the Xperia Play. Some might say this isn’t all that...
