iMessage for Android

There was no word about it anywhere, iSheep followers were stunned, what happened you ask? iMessage for Android was released by Apple.

My Thoughts: Apple iPhone 5C Pricing (Canadian)

I’m honestly a bit confused. The point of releasing iPhone 5C was to complete with cheaper Android models. Looking at Apple.ca website the 5C will be sold for $599.00.
