I like my Venus from verizon. Its got a half touch screen with a decent interface, but no qwerty keypad, the Voyager is full touch screen with a qwerty keypad.

I want an iphone, but they don't work out here. I know a guy with one that is running on AT&T and it doesn't work for ---- because of the service, but the phone is badass IMO. I have to wait until Jan before I can get a new phone. By then they will probably have ---- way cooler than an iPhone.

I have a Samsung A900m and it works great. I don't use it for anything except calling and texting though. :l I'm not into paying the ridiculous charges for internet service on my phone. Maybe when the rates come down a bit more.

Fancy cell phones might be the most efficient way to point out douche bags. I will say the built in GPS stuff is pretty money but other than that, I'll take the most basic cell phone available.

See I use my 54mbps wireless network on my laptop because it isn't slow. Music, well I like my Creative Zen M as it holds 30gb and takes almost any file you throw at it except weird wmv's and faggot Apple formats. I can dump a 700mb divx movie on the sucker in less than a minute and use the TV out cables to plug it into any TV with RCA input.

I can almost see the utility in having a ton of features in one phone but in the same breath it is kind of nice to be able to step away from the internet and technology for a few minutes. I really hate walking around and seeing 20 somethings with fancy internet phones that use them for nothing more than texting and internet browsing facebook and myspace. I think this is another case of me rationalizing my hatred of a product because of the user base. I'm sure I'll pick up something in the next year or two once a product comes out that is a bit better. Basically if an IPhone comes out that isn't made by Apple with all of their stupidity, I might pick one up. Also touch screens are gayer than AIDS.

Hah, how so? On an apple iphone, yes. On most HTC phones with a slideout qwerty, no. ---- trying to navigate with buttons when I can just PRESS what I want to do.

I like being able to mow the lawn while streaming any of my 40+ gbs of music from my computer inside through wifi. I pay $5.99 for unlimited internet on my phone, and to me it's worth it to be able to check my email or bid/check ebay on the go. Hell, I can stream music from my home through wireless data, and my "memory" is only limited by how much I have on my network.

If you don't use/need the extra stuff, don't get it. I use the crap though.

I have my BJII overclocked to 300 MHZ. It runs very nmice there... Also have the MODACO Comport hack and reg hack for using entire MP3 songs as ringers and alerts (out of the box you are limited by file size).

I have all of the software available... but cant attach it here.

The OmapClock app makes it to where you can overclosck the device (Mine freezews after a few minutes at anything higher than 300MHZ -= all it takes is a reboot though and its set back to the stock 252... You need to run the app everytime you reboot your phone unless you place it in the startup group)

The ModaCo Smartphone GPS activator opens up com 4 for the GPS chip to be able to communicate with non ATT proprietary apps *such as windows live search or google maps)... Freeing you from Telnav.... which is junk anyways)

Then you can just download mobile regisatry editor to hack the reg to edit the max file size of MP3 files to be able to use whole songs as ringtones......


Love my phone, the ONLY complaint i have is that there is no flash available to lookie a youtube... Need something else for that, but I like my phone more than the I phone, not to mention the 5 dollar insurance applies.



LMK if anyone needs any MS ---- for their mobile devices..

Nigs.
