    Buy an LG phone. My Env took some amazingly good pics and my Env3 is almost as good, even without the autofocusing lens.

    I have quite the collection of novelty phones, but I got rid of my landline service years ago. The truth of novelty phone collecting is that even though you don't have them plugged in and ringing, they're still very amusing. I'm currently in the hunt for a 30s-era bakelite stromberg-carlson (in black) and a desirable WE payphone.

    That's progress for ya! There's so much to miss: like the batman utility belt that made us look so cool before our phone did everything; the studly boombox on our shoulders before mp3's w/ earbuds; the ever blinking "12:00" on the VCR - ah nostalgia!

    Excellent list. I have a few more to add:
    #Louder Ringer.

    #Total silence for notifications when the phone is on vibrate. When you are on a call...IT STILL RINGS SYSTEM SOUNDS

    #Phone App. Sucks. It's slow, it's buggy and it's so unresponsive, when you slide up to answer, the phone still vibrates TWICE before picking up the phone. Seriously, my Treo should not be more responsive than the Pre.

    I'm not usually like this, but… for god sakes, man, use a comma— or six.


    After what seems like years of 'Will they? Won't they?' speculation, this pic has appeared on the Chinese site PDAFans, and is, at the least, a vaguely Pre-looking device bearing a Dell logo. It is rumored to be released by the end of the year, and, assuming this is real, it looks like it will be running Android.

    @soggy_cheerio: While punctual grace is always appreciated, wouldn't you say that was perhaps a bit overdone? This is like a NOW activist and Jerry Falwell debating abortion--both should be moderated a bit. You know, moderated--like, pimpslapped with the business end of a pissed-off moray eel.

    @fluidexistence: No, overdone would be mentioning the capitalization and homophone issue. But, since it's Mr. Crisp's second post on the Giz, I figured I'd cut him a break, while simultaneously giving him a proper initiation by ribbing him on it. That was the tone, no?

    @soggy_cheerio: although in Mr. Crisp's defense, you've arguably over-punctuated one or two times yourself (e.g. "It is rumored to be released by the end of the year, and, assuming this is real," -> "it is rumored to be released by the end of the year and, assuming this is real,").


    I remember reading somewhere that there's almost a statistical certainty that someone who corrects someone else's grammar on the internet will make a grammatical mistake of their own in the text of their correction. Which means I've probably made at least one as well.

    Perhaps he prefers to segregate his calls by type, using discrete phone numbers. Phone #1 is for family and friends. Phone #2 is for work. Phones #3-#8 are for credtors (and all set to silent mode).

    Maybe he's cooking an egg. Or popcorn. I saw these videos on line that show you can cook popcorn and eggs w/like 5 cellphones.
