The Market is still showing yesterday's list on the front page, but if you click the links to each app in the AC story, or search in the Market, you'll see that the ones I listed are 10 cents.

It seems that both yesterday's and today's apps are $.10 right now. That'll probably change sometime soon.

Oh okay, cool. I think thinking about picking up SlideIT. I never really liked Swype, but at $.10 (I think it's usually 3 or 4 bucks), I guess it's worth a shot.

Funny, I just switched back from SlideIT to Swype, which I hadn't used in the last year. SlideIT is very full-featured w/many input modes, but the inaccuracy was giving me headaches. Definitely worth a dime though, since it's probably a personal preference issue.

OT (Bears):

Peter King on his Weekend Pickoff:

Why do sports writers always look at a football game as if it's one QB against another? What, do the QB's also play defensive end?

I don't think Tebow is coming out of this one unscathed. Our defense still has Peppers and Urlacher on it last time I checked.

Yea but if your offense can't sustain a drive your D will get gased and be ineffective...

Obligatory was a lurker, have decided to say hi post.
What's up? This thread has consumed many many hours of my life since its creation, it's only right that I would post. I've been talking about this phone so much, that even my fiancee has admitted to checking here for updates.
It has been a roller coaster, hopefully we will all have our phones soon.

I'm on the Undersea, for sure. Tough sledding for both imo.

+1 for sheetz

Wow I didn't realize there were that many people here from PA. Isn't sheetz only central to western PA also?

Sheetz extends as far east as Wilkes Barre, Reading, Ephrata and Lancaster. Reading and Lancaster have some Wawa run-over.

True story: went to school in Western PA. Dated a girl from Altoona. I have been to the ORIGINAL Sheetz location. It is gone now, but I love stupid trivial stuff like that.

Continued OT:
Wawa was actually the name of a farm that supplied mostly dairy products. I think it is a native american term for goose. I never even seen a Sheetz so I have no idea what that is about.

You are correct. But you are missing the best part of Wawa. The presidnet of the company's name is Dick Wood. We live less than 15 minutes from their corporate offices and one of their plants so he came and spoke at my high school during a career day and was one of the coolest people I have ever met. He claimed That he and his friends invented Tye dye t-shirts in the 60's/70's.

I liked the bit about the updating apps. That's surprisingly fast.

The only thing I would have left out is how you love Sense. There are a ton of people who love it, and a ton who don't. In my experience, if I'm reading a review and the reviewer says how much he loves Sense, Motoblur, or TouchWiz, I'll pass on because I don't think it will be fully objective.

Might have been good to say something like "If you love Sense, you will love this latest iteration of it even more, and if you don't, all of the 3rd party launchers work smoothly and without lag."

To me, everything else was excellent.

But, of course, just my opinion.

Yes but if we get a couple of good interceptions that give us a short field to work with, I think we'll be good. Also, can't discount the Devin Hester factor!

This is my last chance for any hope at a good ending for the season. If they can knock off the "mighty" Tebow, I'm hopeful. If not, forget it. At 7-6, they won't be going anywhere.

Eh, not as delicious tasting :rolleyes:
(alright, I can't get so dirty minded this early in the morning)


BTW, I really miss that place. Five Guys is nearly as good an there's a ton of them in the DC area (it's home). Since most of our West Coast'rs are still sleeping should we get a leg up on the In n Out vs. Five Guys debate :D
Click to expand...

Jumping in for the first time today. Five Guys is ridiculously delicious, even if having one bag of their fries and a burger clogs my arteries until they're ready to burst. I'll give it a vote as better than In-N-Out and get a jump on those West Coasters!

How did you buy them and not put them on your phone? I currently don't have an android phone and when I attempt to purchase the apps, it gives me the error "there is no android phone attached to this account". I am logged into google+ Any ideas?

:eek: HOLY MOLEY!!! I don't think I ever went over 2gigs!?!?!


Pics or it never happened! LOL!!! :D:D

OK so I have a slightly selfish question/request. I actually had a review on my rezound published by HTCPedia.com - An Online Encyclopedia for HTC Users. I said that since the rezound and the g-nex have the same resolution (1280x720) and the gnex had a bigger screen that the rezound picture may very well be the better display (of course this is not taking into account the differences between samoled and slcd).

Would love to hear the thoughts of the G-nex elite:)

I think your request lost out to the Sheetz v. Wawa debate :)

I don't really have an opinion because I have never seen a SLCD display. I will say that my OG Droid's LCD dispaly is one of the sharpest that I have seen on any cell phone. Even compared to most phones that have come out in the past 2 years.
 
Hey guys. Quick favor to ask. I don't have time to catch up this morning. Any new news since Steven's rumor about Google Wallet/Isis causing the delay?

Thanks!! I appreciate it!
 
Wawa is better than Sheetz in many ways, but no matter what Sheetz does to try and top them Wawa will always win for one reason - Hoagiefest!

So are we allowed to be told why the thread was locked down in case we missed it to sleep or is it never to be spoken of again? PM would work for me if the latter is the case. :-)
