Got this text from Metro this morning "Black Friday Blowout! Visit a MetroPCS store 11/24 through 11/30 for savings of $30-$100 w/INSTANT discounts on the Samsung Indulge, Admire and Freeform III" Funny thing is all these phones have had $30-$100 discounts for more then a month and a half.... Ahahaha

They are making too much money on the esteem. Technically it is already on sale. 250$ is a good price for it. I thought it was going to be 400
 
I saw a video on the galaxy Nexus and transformer prime and I almost had an orgasm. Those devices are amazing!! I won't get the nexus since I like my cheap bill but I have to figure out a way to talk the fiancée into letting me get the transformer prime! I know her response already though. She will be like but you already have a tablet! Ill respond but I don't have that tablet! In the end I won't be able to buy it and ill have to cry myself to sleep.

Yeah its a Sense rom Im guessing it a mother board from a phone some how rigged to a all in one touch screen comp monitor with a battery pack. Unless the dude went all out and completely built it from scratch.
 
imagining the guy using his palm to play Angry Birds. LOL. or traveling out of town, & in the airport having that sucker go through the xray machine, to funny to think about it.
 
Ok..Imagine this.
Your in an important business meeting and you need to sneak a text to your wife under the table.

Might just be a little obvious. lol

This may or may not pertain to our particular device in one form or another but, it has been brought to light that certain carrier/manufacturers are doing a lot more data collecting than anyone would care to believe. Here is an article from XDA about a dev who found some things that they didn't want him to find and are now trying to shut him up.
This link is to the most recent article and you can find the original article linked therein.

Good reading.

That might be one of the reasons some peoples batteries are not lasting as long as others. Tapping into our phones as servers to see our location and browser habits can be a battery drain.

Look like XDA has a logging checker posted from the developer TrevE.
Has someone tried this yet for the Esteem to check for this nasty little spider Carrier-IQ?
