I bought an EVO 4G last week. Of course, news of the EVO 3D would leak out a couple of days later. And then today, we get photos and specs of the new phone. Pretty sure this is a record for me.
The EVO 3D will sport a 1.2GHz dual core processor, 1080p HD 2D video, 720p HD 3D video, a 4.3″ display and dual 5MP cameras on the back (along with a front 1.3MP camera).
The EVO View 4G tablet will sport a 1.5GHz processor, 7″ 1024 x 600 resolution display and will basically be a rebranded version of the HTC Flyer.

I’ve always been happy with the boot time of my Macs in comparison with my PCs. My current MacBook probably rings in well under a minute, which blows away my Windows Vista desktop box with its “go make some coffee and a sandwich” boot time.
But the new MacBook Air has me drooling with its “don’t blink or you’ll miss it boot times” as demonstrated in the below video.
