The mouse features touch-scrolling, a battery indicator, the ability to track on most any surface , and a 2.4GHz nano transceiver that no doubt plugs into your laptop’s USB port.

It’s called the G2, it’ll run Android, and it’s T-Mobile’s first phone to ride those wannabe-4G HSPA+ airwaves. Those are the facts we have. As to the speculation, a previous roadmap leak and T-Mobile’s own reps indicate it’ll be a HTC-built handset set for a September release, while a careful eyeballing of that silhouette leads us to thinking it’s the same device as the purported myTouch HD we’ve been seeing around here lately.

We’ll be honest: we thought SSDs would suck down most of platter-based storage’s milkshake by now — that magnetic disks would follow tapes into obscurity.

In a recent shareholder vote on the subject of Michael Dell’s continued presence on his eponymous company’s board, an almost unprecedented 25 percent expressed their desire that he leaves.
