HTC One at Mobile World Congress highlights reel now online
Youtube link for mobile viewing
HTC held one of the biggest events at Mobile World Congress this year when they introduced the One series. It's not hard to understand, they certainly look good, and from what we've seen they blow us away with speed and usability. Even Sense has been trimmed and now looks, and in our opinion runs, much better. I think most Android fans are looking forward to seeing them be released.
What most of us didn't get to see was the presentation and show they put on in Barcelona. We missed them demo the .7 second shutter on the new camera hardware. We missed when Peter Chou told us about the new way they are integrating Beats Audio. And the info about micro-arc oxidation would have been great to sit in on. That's why we're pumped to see that HTC has posted a five-minute video with highlights of their event.
It's not as fun as being there, but it will have to do. And it makes us want to see these phones on the shelves even more.

Julia Roberts Muses on Fame in Vanity Fair
Julia Roberts is perhaps one of the most recognizable women in the world. She talks about how she comes to grips with that in the new issue of Vanity Fair.
The Mirror, Mirror actress and mom to twins Hazel and Finn, 7, and son Henry, 4, says her children with husband Danny Moder have no concept of fame.
"On a crowded street, and somebody noticed me, and then another person noticed. Somebody said as we were walking past, 'Oh, that's Julia Roberts.'"
"We all just kind of kept going, and then Finn turned around and said, 'Yeah, my mom's Julia Robinson,'" she said. "That's what gives you perspective."
It could be Robinson, it could be Johnson, because it has nothing to do with me as a person," says the Oscar-winner, who gained some perspective herself.
Curious about what life is like for children born into famous families, Roberts talked to her Larry Crowne costar Grace Gummer, daughter of Meryl Streep.
"Grace comes up and goes, 'Gosh, it's so sweet seeing all your kids on the set. It reminds me of when I was little, and I would go see my mom at work.'"
"I asked, 'Were you happy?' Suddenly, I thought, here is a source of information."
"I said, 'How old were you when you realized your mom was Meryl Streep?' She said, 'I think I was probably nine when I put that all together.'"
"I said, 'Were you cool with it?' She said, 'Yeah, it was fine. There was no trauma or anything like that.' So hearing that was hopeful."
Roberts doesn't just worry about the future of her three children, she's also concerned with today's up-and-coming actors living under a microscope.
"The business is so different; you can never be that new girl that has that moment of, 'Where'd she come from?'" Roberts tells Vanity Fair.
"There's the express elevator and there's rehab. It's so awful; nobody gets a fair trial-and-error period that everybody deserves and everybody needs."

ViewSonic Reveals First Dual-SIM Android 4.0 Smartphones At MWC
Not too many folks can honestly take advantage of dual-SIM phones, but for Europeans (as an example) that routinely travel between Germany and Holland, having space for two native SIMs can be a major lifesaver when it comes to roaming costs, and save you a bit of hassle from swapping cards in and out. The planet's first dual-SIM phone running...Source: http://hothardware.com/News/ViewSonic-Reveals-First-DualSIM-Android-40-Smartphones-At-MWC/

HTC sends greetings from Barcelona, shows a box of goodies
On their new official blog, HTC has posted a short greeting from Mobile World Congress in Barcelona post from Director of digital marketing John Starkweather. While it's nice of him to say hello to all of us here on the Internet, and we certainly wish him well, we're more interested in the picture he attached. 54 pieces of "something amazing" are in that box (we counted), covered teasingly in pink bubble wrap.
We don't have much to go on, but I have One good guess. We'll know more when we see HTC on Sunday.
