The girly-girl in me wants to have my Motorola V60v encrusted in sparkly plum and green crystals. However, I am having trouble justifying the $200 (plus shipping) price tag, which is more than my phone cost. What’s a girl to do? Hmmm, I wonder if this company does their crystal magic to PDAs? I can

I found an interesting article today about tech myths. Covered are issues like whether opting out of spam will get you more spam or whether the Japanese Windows edition really uses Haiku for its error messages… “Three things are certain: Death, taxes, and lost data.
