Good to see some other Trek fans around - though I've become more accustomed to seeing them all over these days in one form or another. We live in a glorious world now where we can call up Trek episodes and movies of all kinds over and over, and carry them around with us in a communicator-sized device.

In my day, we had to wait for original Trek repeats to air at a specific time, and if you missed an ep, you had to wait months for it to cycle around again. It was insanity, I tell ya!

Yes, and we used to have boxes and boxes of VHS tapes of the episodes, now I have every episode of all five series on a hard drive that streams wirelessly to my entertainment center. Of course, I converted my favorites and put them on my Dinc. :D

well the evo is just released and they already have an update being pushed out to fix bugs.
While we did get the m$ exchange bug fix, I would really like one to address battery sucking low radio/signal bug.
 
Yes Waynester, something needs to be done about the FM tuner and the Music player fouling up. I thought maybe it was a one time incident but at the gym using both they fouled up again. At one point using the Music player every song I attempted to play continued to skip. At one point I looked at my screen and noticed a box popped up with numbers I have never called before, prefix started with 777. Using the FM tuner it continued to scan for channels and could not stop it besides completely shutting the phone off. I hope I'm not the only one having these issues.

That could very well be tied in with the low signal, the 777 is ( on my omnia anyway, connection lost redialing 777...) the "number" phone dials for connection.
 
That explains some of the problems with the tuner anyways but having to turn the phone off and back on just to get the tuner to close down is a pain.
Still playing your own music doesn't require a signal. I've read people pointing the finger at the actual jack plug-in being the culprit.

is there no way to remove city id from the phone? I can just see my drunk ass accidentally clicking ok to a monthly service charge for a product that is utter crap when 3/4 of the people I know have cell phones from areas that have nothing to do with where they're from now.

Unfortunately until the phone is rooted there is no way to remove it.

I am getting boooooored of my music collection...

Just wondering if anyone knows of a website that you can input a song or artist, and It will spit out "if you like that you make like this" with a preview, or ability to listen to the entire track.

I used to know of a few sites like this, but after searching around, I am coming up empty.

EDIT: Found one if anyone is interested musicovery.com
