    In reply to Verizon Wireless Launches Three More Anti-AT&T 3G Network Commercials
    This is a smart move by Verizon. Facts aside, att's lawsuit is generating publicity, and it would be foolish to not ride this wave.

    All I want is for att to invest some capital into its network, but what's the point, they'll have to come up with something faster in the near future.

    This is the only DIY I'd actually DIM, except it's the one DIY without instructions.

    Is there hidden meaning with Steve Shaffer being "naughty" and then as punishment cannot browse the web? #3g

    @ilovexspin: It could be an iPhone jab, or just consonance with Shaffer. Also if he's experiencing "shaffing", he's doing it wrong. #3g

    In reply to The iPhone-to-Android Switch: 10 Things You Need to Know
    It wasn't so clear from the article, so if I were to use an Android, my contacts would be downloaded to the device from the Google cloud?

    i.e. if I happen to be in area with no access to the net from my Android phone, would I still have my contacts on the phone? (perhaps a silly question, but I just want to clarify). #iphone

    @Coolmodo: It only syncs with the cloud, all your contacts and data are actually stored on the phone.

    I feel as though i have to give my 2 cents. on android. I bought a G1 near its release, And yes something things it did better then iphone, But honestly iphone OS 3.0 fixed most of that.

    The iphone is ahead right now! in two years, or a year, i will decide and move on then. But i was tired of android sucking for so long, the first year was really lame, so i wanted something good now! not something with potential.

    The gmail app i miss alot, but google sync with exchange is great. and honestly im happy now, i see myself switching back to android in the not so distant future, but right now i feel like it is still a teenager and an iphone can already go to bars. #iphone

    They did the same thing when Chome went up.

    I don't know why this is such a big deal. Are you really demonizing Google for telling people about products they had a hand in creating? #googlehomepagedroidad

    In reply to DIY Star Trek Bluetooth Communicator Almost Makes Regular Bluetooth Headsets Look Stylish

    I thought about making a BT communicator but I didn't want to have something else to carry around in my pocket.

    Besides, I'd rather have one of these...

    For all you guys suffering from crappy battery life, I recommend you get a program called APNdroid, it kills your 3g and 2g connections saving you a ton of battery life. When you want to go online just click on it and everything is back to normal. I forgot what the barcode is but it is easy to find in the market. #iphone

    The main holes I am seeing is the price. $550.00 for the Droid is my breaking point. I will be patient and wait until June when there is a discount due to my contract renewal. #iphone

    I use my iPhone primarily as a phone and app device -- no music/video/podcasts for me. I like the sound of Android, and if I hadn't just jumped on the 3GS with a new two year contract, I might consider it a little harder. #iphone

    "Your best bet is to avoid the native player that's sort of hidden and to actually use a third party app, Meridian. Or just get a Zune HD for your music and video, and you'll be much happier."

    No, sorry. That's not going to cut it. One of the deciding factors in my decision to get an iphone was that I would no longer need to carry an ipod/PMP.

    But.

    I have absolute faith in google and the dev community, and have no doubts that a very respectable PMP app will be available in the near future. If the demand for droid is strong enough, this will be a minor road bump.

    So, I'm still switching to droid. Bye apple. You were so charming at first. It seemed like the honeymoon would never end. Then I woke up. #iphone
