Android Overload: T-Mobile And AT&T File for $1 Billion Spectrum Transfer, Droid Razr Now Available In Purple and More
Chris Chavez
Modays are always a bit hectic around the Phandroid offices, so it’s no wonder we have an extra big helping of the Android Overload for you here tonight. If you’re new around these parts, this is the place where we pool all the stories we come across from throughout our day, the ones that didn’t get the star treatment on our front page. Doesn’t mean they’re bad by any means, in fact — personally, I can’t wait to see what T-Mobile does with that $1 billion in spectrum they’re about to get from AT&T. Go get ’em, tiger!
