You’ve seen the ads. What once was Carly in a pink dress, talking about her myTouch 4G that let her Facebook her face off and while making little “digs” at AT&T, has now become a biker chic badass whizzing by an iPhone biker with a wink and a hat tip .
Buyer beware. Seeing as how the HTC One X is a hot ticket item, and sales for the device will no doubt go up now that the Galaxy S3 has been demystified, a lot of Android users are looking towards the X for their next smartphone purchase.

Some people were scratching their heads a bit Monday after AT&T announced its plans to get into the home security game . For his part, AT&T’s Glenn Lurie says he’s a bit surprised by everyone else’s surprise.
