With the availability of iPads, netbooks, tablets, and smartphones nowadays, it doesn’t leave much room for our older laptops.

Most every phone, tablet, MP3 player, and computer these days have built-in speakers so you can hear audio without having to use headphones.

I recently spent two weeks with the Droid RAZR MAXX by Motorola. This phone runs on Verizon’s 4G LTE and its claim to fame is battery life.
