Android Users Go Cuckoo for Angry Birds Game

Android users have been waiting a long time to get their hands on Angry Birds and now that it's finally available it seems we've gone slightly cuckoo for the title.
Angry Birds is an addictive game that's already available for the iPhone and iPad. Though it was most recently in the news because publisher Rovio kicked up a fuss about Microsoft's use of the Angry Birds logo on its Windows Phone 7 website, the game has been available in beta for Android for quite a while. On Friday, the game left beta and Angry Birds became available for Android users around the globe. Angry Birds was available for download via GetJar first and users eager to get their hands on the game promptly crashed it. However, it would seem things have recovered since Friday's outage.
