Adobe is betting big on Creative Cloud, but it’s also a bit pricey at $62.99 a month. So it just announced that current customers of CS3, CS4 or CS5 can snag it for $37.99 a month.

TalkAndroid’s got leaked screenshots saying that Google’s cloud storage service will have 5GB of storage and launch the week of April 16. That would put it in line with the 5GB of free storage from iCloud and a good bit ahead of the 2GB you get from Dropbox by default.
HTC has announced that it is going to shut down its half-arsed backup service, HTCsense.com, to replace it with “new and improved services”. But if you have any data stored there, download it real quick — after April 30, it’ll be deleted for good.
