    Hey, has anybody made a "Bada Bing!" joke yet?

    Anyway, what's the point of Bada? Why not just throw Android on there and be done with it?

    c'mon, john. i wouldn't call this thing a dumbphone. now, that doesn't mean i am greenlighting its price, but it is above a dumb phone and a little below a smart.

    This is exactly what my old boss needs.

    That man has dropped and destroyed so many phones sweeping chimneys, it's like it was made for him.

    He had some blue ruberrized Nokia that seemed to do him good for a year, but that made its way through the wash at one point and that was the end of the little phone that could.

    Boing Boing had a video where they deep fried various cellphones. Can we see a little link love from Giz Taste Test?

    Please, just use youtube for your videos. Your video player almost never works. I'm using safari with a modern mac. This shouldn't be a problem. This time when I hit play, It started showing you putting noodles in the pot, then stopped, then when I hit play again, the video looked like it was playing behind the preview image, only showing at the sides.
