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.

Flick it open to the right page and you'll spot an LCD display that magically displays video ads and live Tweets from the CW Network. 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.
