Entertainment Weekly print edition comes with a 'smartphone-like Android device'

If there's one advantage a print magazine still has over an online publication, it's the ability to offer all manner of crazy freebies glued to its pages.

Intrigued by how such a thing could function, Mashable did a teardown (literally) and discovered all the ingredients of a budget Android smartphone, including components which aren't strictly necessary for the task at hand: a 3G modem with T-Mo SIM (which seems to have some degree of voice connectivity), a full-sized battery, USB port and even a partially-built QWERTY keyboard. Suddenly, that $50 myTouch doesn't seem so cheap.Continue reading Entertainment Weekly print edition comes with a 'smartphone-like Android device'Filed under: Cellphones, MobileEntertainment Weekly print edition comes with a 'smartphone-like Android device' originally appeared on Engadget on Thu, 04 Oct 2012 07:10:00 EDT.
