That's why I have a cheap cel phone and an iPod Touch... the best of both worlds IMO. I can also game my battery to oblivion and still phone someone.
I'm not trying to be smug - I think iPhones are sweet, and would have had one if they were cheaper, but we're seeing more and more privacy violations on top of the other factors now, and other smartphone platforms certainly aren't safe either. I prefer to have a smart gadget and a dumb phone. #storm8
I would rather this guy have my number and call to annoy me than the hoardes of politicos that were calling me hounding me to vote for them prior to Tuesdays election. #storm8
If you want a fantastic photo editor for Android, I suggest PicSay Pro. It's not free (though there is a free trial version), but for the small price it does much, much more. Soft focus, vignetting, many filters, word balloons, image distortion (ie goo, or warping) curved and warpable text, painting, history painting, applying effects via image masking (ie only blur or desaturate masked portions)... plus all of the stuff this Photoshop app does.
I've actually done some pretty nice image edits with it, and it's not huge (only 1.57M) and will save to SD, or export to email, gmail, messaging, or auto set as contact icon, wallpaper or faves icon. Extremely powerful for a phone-based image editor. I bought it after five minutes of playing with the trial version. If you have an Android device and like playing with images, then this is easily a "must have" app, in my opinion. #photoshop
@spline9: I tried this Photoshop app, for nearly 1 meg, it's garbage. It barely does anything, and what it does do, it does sloooooowly. Without history painting it can't do much of anything useful. The free PicSay will do all this does, and more, and with more sharing and export options.
Here's a quick sample of a 1 minute edit with Picsay. It's my cat, taken with the G1, and given a vignetting, and then a blur, history painted to leave the middle more in soft focus, and then slightly sepia-toned. #photoshop
I'm surprised that Apple makes developers ask for your location, but not your Address Book information. At least on Android, they stick out this information before you ever download the app. #storm8
@Coolmodo: I think the bug isn't that they were stealing phone numbers, but that it was a bug that someone found out. Oops, you weren't supposed to see that code! #storm8

PicSay Pro is awesome. The devs are very supportive and good about keeping it updated, too.
I'll give this Photoshop a whirl, though... #photoshop
