I don't think I really want to meet Ryan Mallet, He always came off kinda douchey at Arkansas and now New England.

 

Crochet, croquet...touché.  Well played, Nickel, well played.

I was supposed to put up a display for the Moto X at my Best Buy store to replace the Z10 table, but they only sent us one sign out of everything that was supposed to be displayed. So probably this Sunday we will have live models set up. I've only held the dummy phones we have so it will be nice to play with the real thing.

Android Central is reporting the Moto X will be available starting tomorrow (September 6) through Sprint.  Moto Maker will be available in the coming months as AT&T has the exclusive on that until sometime in November.

Funny thing is the only Android/Sprint news feed I don't follow is newsroom.sprint.com

 

Btw, I love how they have a picture of a guy poking at an iPhone4 next to the Moto X announcement.

You, and anyone else on S4GRU, can call me Noah, if you prefer that. Usernames seem so, impersonal.

 

Just start signing your posts at the end like AJ. We refer to him as AJ instead of WiWavelength, which sounds like a decepticon from Transformers!  :lol:

I wish he didn't sign it, then I could call him WiWave, which sounds pretty cool in my opinion.

You are welcome to call me WiWave.  In other corners of the Web, plenty have already done so.

 

I sign my posts basically to assume ownership of them.  I am not going to hide behind some Internet veil of anonymity.  I am proud of my posting legacy and think of myself as a man of letters.

I was mainly kidding, although it does sound cool, but are you sure you're a man of letters? I was thinking more along the lines of hieroglyphs.

Close.  All of my posts are composed in cuneiform before Google's translation service uploads them to S4GRU.  And when I speak of my tablets, I am referring to my clay tablets.

That's pretty intense, you just gotta make sure you don't break the tablets in anger when you see a golden calf.

We have them in my store. I like the look and feel. It tiny looking, very small bezels when I hold it it seems so small, but with a good sized screen. I like the curved backing to.

I bought one, but through telesales, as I was told no stores had received them yet (across the country according to some I spoke to). I should get it today supposedly, though the tracking looks more like tomorrow...

 

I think it will be pretty near ideal for me, but I'm a bit worried that in a year I will regret not waiting for a tri-band device.

The funny thing is, that's really a big selling point for me, but rather the size, build and quality.

holding the phone, playing with it (at at&t) it just feels great, in a way that very few phones do. I would compare it to when I first played with the original evo; it just feels great.

I played with the Moto X at the ATT store as well.  Too bad I couldn't set the voice to test out the always on Google Now feature since it was too loud in the store.  I still don't like that the actual screen real estate is 4.3 inches since the onscreen buttons take up so much room and that it is single band LTE.  I do like the build quality of the phone and feels really nice and the always on Google Now.  I definitely want to check out the Sprint version at the store for kicks.

A little creepy, but funny

 

The really creepy part is that the always on Google Now is going to record and process all of the words and noises that follow.  Hey, we all know that massages lead to...

 

;)

At least at the store I went to, with my voice, it worked even though it had not been set up, you just have to think to try talking to it anyway haha.

It worked amazingly well for the noise level, and turned on quite quickly upon saying the phrase.

 

Screen size might be hard to adjust to if you have a current high end phone, but is the same as my Galaxy Nexus, so it feels just fine to me.

    • Checked just now and found a 56MB GP System update pending...will follow up after install.    Edit:  Confirmed that this one moved from August to September 1 after updating.
    • Are you sure that's Direct to Cell? That sounds like the 911 center was offline and they got brought back online via a Starlink uplink. Which also makes way more sense than Direct to Cell for that area.

    • T-Mobile Fires Back At AT&T After Their Statements On T-Priority
    • February is always closer than you think! https://stadiumtechreport.com/news/caesars-superdome-gets-matsing-deployment-ahead-of-super-bowl-lix/ Another Super Bowl, another MatSing cellular antenna deployment. Caesars Superdome, home of the NFL’s New Orleans Saints, has deployed a large number of cellular antennas from MatSing as part of an effort to increase wireless network capacity ahead of the upcoming Super Bowl LIX in February, 2025. It is the third such deployment of MatSing equipment at Super Bowl venues in as many years, following cellular upgrades at Allegiant Stadium for Super Bowl LVIII and at State Farm Stadium for Super Bowl LVII. According to the Saints, the MatSing antennas were part of a large wireless overhaul this offseason, done primarily “to satisfy fans’ desires for wireless consumption and bandwidth,” an important thing with Super Bowl LIX coming to the venue on Feb. 9, 2025. Each year, the NFL’s big game regularly sets records for wireless data consumption, with a steady upward progression ever since wireless networks were first put into stadiums. https://www.neworleanssaints.com/news/caesars-superdome-transformation-2024-new-orleans-saints-nfl-season-part-1-wifi-upgrades-wireless-cellular During the offseason renovation project, the foundation of the facility's new Distributed Antenna System (DAS) was the installation of 16 multi-beam, wideband spherical lense antennas that are seven feet in diameter and weigh nearly 600 pounds apiece, a model called the MatSing MS-48H180. Another 16 large antenna spheres of varying sizes and frequencies have also been installed for a total of 32 new large antennas, in addition to 200 cellular antennas inside and around the building, all of these products specifically made for high-density environments such as stadiums and arenas. The DAS system's performance is expected to enhance further as it becomes fully integrated throughout the season. The MatSing MS-48H180 devices, with a black color that matches the Caesars Superdome's roof, each were individually raised by hoist machines to the top of the facility and bolted into place. Each cellular antenna then transmits 48 different beams and signals to a specific area in the stadium, with each sphere angled differently to specifically target different coverage areas, allowing increased, consistent coverage for high-density seating areas. In addition to creating targets in seating and common areas throughout the stadium, these antennas create dedicated floor zones that result in improved coverage to the field areas for fans in 12 field-level suites and the Mercedes-Benz End Zone Club, teams and on-field media and broadcast elements. The project is also adding 2,500 new wireless access points placed in areas such as concourses, atriums, suites and food and beverage areas for better WiFi coverage.
