The top item with V3.co.uk readers this week was our review of the HD2 smartphone from HTC, but a close second concerned 13,000 BT customers who will be sent letters demanding payment for alleged illegal file-sharing.
Also popular was the latest 'black screen of death' complaints about Microsoft, and Vodafone's claim that it can deliver broadband speeds of 7.2Mbit/s.
On the security front, readers were keen to learn that a malware writer had been given a job at a software company, and that a pub had been fined after a customer used a Wi-Fi connection illegally.
