Vote Pre!<\/strong>
Poll in the sidebar<\/div>\n

It’s been a grueling challenge that’s seen more than it’s share of upsets (BlackBerry Tour topping the iPhone 3GS, Palm Pre Plus trouncing the Nexus One<\/a> (and BlackBerry Bold<\/a> (and HTC HD2))), but now it’s all come down to one final match-up. For the championship. Of the world.<\/p>\n

Laptop Magazine’s March Smartphone Madness<\/a> has come to the finals, with the Palm Pre Plus taking on the Motorola Droid (hot off of crushing the iPhone-beating BlackBerry Tour<\/a>). In many ways, it’s unsurprising to see two Verizon phones going head-to-head for the championship, but we have to admit that the groundswell of support for the Pre Plus has been overwhelming. Now it all comes down to this – after handily trumping the heavily-favored Nexus One during the first round, the Pre Plus is gunning for the next-best Android phone on the market today. It’s guaranteed to be a good fight.<\/p>\n

For this to be a good fight, we need everybody to play clean. If it’s not a fair win, it doesn’t mean much, now does it?. Voting is open from now until 9 AM Eastern April 5th.<\/p>\n

(And before you ask, no, we’re not going to pin this – but we’ll toss it up in the sidebar, which makes the poll appear on darn near every page on the site.)<\/p>\n

Thanks to everybody that has sent (and will send) this in.<\/em><\/p>\n
