This week is set to be another Apple week - the second generation of the iPad is expected to be unveiled on Wednesday. But in the UK the biggest-selling launch is likely to be HTC's. The hyperbolically named HTC Incredible S is Wang's latest smartphone and has received glowing reviews so far in the tech press.
