    My head is above the table...lol.

     

    If you only had to come to my boring meetings you would understand. Saw a guy playing the new angry birds next to me during the meeting today.. I am not brave enough to do that though.

     

    I just got done downloading that, but probably won't have time to play until the weekend.

    Close your eyes and type a very long email with it. :-)

     

    I actually do pretty good to text and not pay too much attention to what i am writing. Plus i can send text messages without someone knowing i'm typing on a physical keyboard.

  3. Oh-- well I don't know of any phones that will show two different cellular signal bars as a built-in function. I mean-- it will show your wifi signal next to your cellular signal if you're on wifi of course, but I've never seen any stock device show a separate 4G and 3G signal bar. There used to be an app-- I think it was called Real Signal that would show 1x and Ev signal bars independently in the status bar-- and I'm sure somebody will make something similar for LTE, but I hate bars anyway-- I want a numeric signal strength. Bar mapping varies from carrier to carrier, manufacturer to manufacturer, model to model, ROM to ROM-- it's meaningless really-- it's all relative. For example, most Sprint handsets will show 5/6 or more bars at -79 dBm. On my MAXX, I only show all bars below -60 or so and when I get below -80 dBm, the bars can be 1 - 4 based upon Ec/Io ratio only.

     

    All HTC devices on Sprint show separate 3G and 4G signal bars.

  4. I might give the iPhone 5 more thought if the rumor is true about the larger screen. My big sasquatch paws just don't work on a keyboard that fits on a 3.5 inch screen. Even the icons and links. Nothing wrong with people liking the iPhone, but when people act snobbish and think everything on the iPhone is superior to everything on an Android phone, I have a problem with that. The people that would stab their own mother for a launch day iPhone bother me too.

     

    I used to be snobbish about iPhone too. Then when I got my Evo Shift, I really liked the extra features I found in Android, especially the notification pull down menu.

  5. All of you can say whatever you want about Apple, but I would use Mac OS X over Windows any day. And for mobile OS's, it's a toss up between iOS, Windows Phone, & Android. They all have unique features that have their certain appeal. I just prefer the iPhone. Frankly, I like the keyboard more than Android and Windows Phone.

  6. I used the video chat on my epic when I first got it...almost 2 years ago...another thing ios is going to catch up on. It was okay, but more of a novelty for me. I haven't used it once since then unless I wanted to show somebody.

     

    When I had my iPhone 4 I didn't know anyone with an iPhone 4 so I didn't have anyone to Facetime with, so I never used it once in the 6 months I owned the phone.
