    In reply to No More Hardware Players from Slacker
    The one nice piece of the hardware was that you didn't need a net connection to listen. There are places where you dont' get cell coverage, so unless they include buffering 2GB of music, the hardware still has a slight advantage.

    I got an earlier version of the hardware (G1, I guess) and even though it is a bit bulky, I really like it. I wouldn't consider consider the functionality of the device alllll that insignificant considering that there are SOME people without Blackberries and iPhones ...right?

    Anyway, hopefully outlets will put the G2 on sale for fairly cheap and I can pick it up :) #slackerexitshardwarebusiness

    I had the iPhone app first and the G1 second. I would probably buy a Slacker G3 if they made one but sadly that isn't going to happen. I enjoy the music served up by Slacker vs. other online streaming radio services. #slackerexitshardwarebusiness

    It seemed like day one that these were just a useless device made only to make money. With apps on Blackberry and iPhone, who really needs this? The industry is going closer to one-device integration, and this is the exact opposite of it. #slackerexitshardwarebusiness

    Always seemed interesting to me that they had their own hardware and then developed iPhone and BlackBerry apps. #slackerexitshardwarebusiness

    In reply to T-Mobile UK's Calling the HTC Hero the G2
    I thought that the CEO of TMobile US said that they were not getting the Hero?



    http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2009/07/08/t-mobile-usa-no-hero-for-you/



    Or was he just lying? I hope he was doing the PR lying thing. I want this phone badly.

    @Tmacfan4321: Jason meant to write: "The obvious question is what [phone will become the] T-Mobile US G2. Obviously not the Hero ... "



    Yes, I speak Chen. :)

    In reply to T-Mobile myTouch 3G Gets Official, Preorders Start July 8
    If you guys go to the site, they have this exclusive app that's pretty cool. It does look nice, but I wonder what other Android phones are going to be coming out or announced by then?

    @Inception: myTouch (even though I think thats a lame name) could have been fine by itself, but I'd assume they threw the 3G in there to try and make it similiar sounding/featured to iphone 3G, and the Google name just cause its the Google name. Quite a mouthful to say

    @jimboodri: Wrong.


    Android (Open OS) + Numerous ways to install apps + Root functions (Debian, anyone?) + cheaper MP3s that are NOT DRMed + wireless plans that don't cost you an arm in a leg =

    NOT A WANNABE (Especially since iPhone relies alot on certain Google Apps)

    I am so drawn to this phone. I would want it over a Pre or iPhone, I think it's so nice. But, I'm not leaving Sprint.


    Thanks for the fair review.
