    Loving the Note Edge

    I haven't posted on these forums for a while. I waited for the Verizon version of the Note Edge and picked it up on the first day or release. I am really loving the concept of having the frequently used apps line up on the side. It makes using the phone so much easier. Also, the battery...

    The 2014 has been out for a while and VZW is still selling the old version. Any thoughts if the 2014 4G will pop on VZW any time soon?

    Your best camera is the one you have with you. And SGNII is with me all the time. So I have shifted my photography basically to mobile for most shots, except project or client driven. Below are a handful of not random, but composed images that I shot with my Note II.
