ICS User manual

I just graduated from studying law (whew! Finally) and I'll say my eyes were opened with that I learned.

The main thing is they put the material up on their Site. Even if it was an error, they can't force anyone to stop reposting it under the guise of confidential information, but they can issue a 'takedown' notice to enforce their copyright, which it sounds like they did.

He could, if he wanted, write up the specs in his own words and cite the documents as sources... That then becomes protected speech,since it's a news/editorial work and they can't do a damn thing. But that's enough digression out me. Lol

Before I become licensed as appraiser I had to go through quite a few property law courses and it was mind numbing. I don't think I could follow the foot steps of a few of my classmates and study law. Props to you for sticking it out.

Further, you're correct in what you say about 'citing' what he saw. However, sometimes it's not worth the hassle or the headache which can come from defiance. ;)

I am a general real estate appraiser and work for a private firm.
 
Everyone read up on my post a few back and read that link I posted! I was reading through it today and I see that someone has posted that a rep told them that the update would be this month! I'm not sure if this is True True or not which is why I'm chatting with one now ( lol ) :) Let you know what they say! :)

It's true
 
Was just reading an article about the FCC ruling that Verizon cannot block tethering on their phones.

I'm wonder if this ruling was holding up the release? (Can't release a blocked version)
 
I googled it Tom's Hardware US first one that came up. Does that mean that vzw can't charge you if they find out you're using an app to tether for free? Ie, if you pay for4gb of data, they can't tell you how your phone can use it? I'm not clear.
 
What was posted (by me/or someone else, as i will neither confirm nor deny specifics.) and got me in trouble was not public necessarily.

Look you can post links.

Chill out.

*shakes head at stupidity*

They was what I figured, which is why I posted it anyway. Cuz I'm a rebel like that, yo.
 
Not to add any more undue fuel to the fire, but it would seem Verizon Wireless' Spectrum Support page removed the links to the copy of the manual hosted on their site.

Perhaps in expectation of the new ICS manual?
 
my google search source says the spectrum will receive updates to ICS in Q3 now....doesnt have any specific date...im really really really really really hoping for it to be early september because it would be an awesome thing to play with before the college semester gets into full motion..

I too must agree. I think ICS and the subsequent updates would help people like us out a whole lot. I'm talking just general productivity. My school is bascically tethered to their website, and I find myself on that more often than I find myself in class. Much needed browsing improvements.

I agree. the browser on the spectrum is way too jumpy to do anything important with. I'm looking forward to using chrome.

and if the stock launcher we get is the same ics LG launcher I put on my friends epic4g touch... this update is gonna be amazing
 
Chrome isn't all that. It's great having bookmarks imported, but it's a bit sluggish and glitchy. I tend to use Dolphin on my tablet with 4.1 on it.... It works smoother and faster with ICS. Another issue I have with chrome is the lack of 'end' button to kill the app. If you use it a bit, it can eat up a grip of ram.
