Merry Christmas And Go Android!

Premiering today during ABC Basketball will be the newest commercial highlighting the T-Mobile MyTouch, Android and how lazy Charles Barkley has become. I’m not exactly disappointed by this commercial as its better than the Even More commercials and does highlight some of the wide-reaching aspects of the Android market.
