We're trying a little experiment we'd love for you to be a part of. Our esteemed Community Manager has set up a new section of the Forums called "Testing Notes - From the PhoneDog Labs." As we test out new devices, we'll drop into the Labs to post some notes, answer your questions, and see if there's anything in particular you'd like us to check out as we review the latest phones.

The Labs are meant to be an informal place to help bridge the gap between Unboxing/First Impressions and full Reviews of devices. Sometimes we'll think aloud, sometimes we'll post photos, sometimes we'll praise a device one day only to scorn it the next if it winds up letting us down.

So head over to the Labs, bookmark the page, and check in from time to time to see what we think of the latest phones as we're testing them out.
