Also, isn't there somewhere online that is proof of our current president giving out free phones? Or was it someone talking about how our president gave ten a free phone.

Just what I heard.

The program has been in place since Carter or Reagan, they just expanded it past landlines to prepaid wireless because this is 2012.

Well then, every president from the one who has implemented it is a moron or taking care of bigger issues. The dangers of being nickled and dimed to poverty.

In other news, the Clay Matthews "Fathead" commercial is pretty funny. But I'm still not buying one.

On small, handheld devices, plastic is a far superior/durable building material than aluminum. Your phone might feel sturdier, but plastic has more "bounce" to it.

Now unban my dlazz account so I can get back to trolling.

Don't bring reality into this type of argument. They'll have none of it.

It's got a chance since it's outside of the lunatic forum that it belongs in

And I still think you're a douche, but I don't go around telling everyone every time I get a chance.

sorry you get confused what name you're on an end up with one banned from time to time. "I got banned to the basement, OH NO! I have to create a new name so I can post my witty comments!"

I actually think he was. I thought it was just a basement ban but when I went to unban him it looked like a regular ban.

How do you like the 3GS...I mean GS3? So confusing, making it sound like an iphone model.

I was able to get it without giving up my unlimited data plan, which was the reason i got rid of the iphone. I didn't like the iphone enough to pay extra for data and have it capped. A family member of mine who isn't into phone was due for an upgrade, so I gave them $200 bucks, they upgraded, and gave me the Samsung so i could get a new phone without changing my contract plan.

Anyways, it's really fast, screen is amazing, and i've always like how much you can customize a droid. The one thing i liked more about the iphone was how fast it found my location when i went to use the maps, it was instant. With droids, it's not. But overall i really like it. My last phone was a droid so I like that i don't have to learn a new OS or interface. Iphone frustrated me a bit just because i was so use to using the droid.

If picking between the 2 i'd say it's just preference. After using the iphone i definitely prefer the droid interface and OS more.

I loved the customization aspect of my evo but the OS was so damn buggy. The maps were always frustrating, taking forever to find my location like you said. Always having to free up space because the internal memory was so damn small. A few other things like that made it a frustrating user experience for me. The iphone isn't perfect but it's better, at least for what I'm looking for in a phone.

If i could take one thing from the iphone it'd definitely be gps location, it's instant.

I never had issues with GPS locks on my Nexus, but I had nothing but problems with my DROID 2.

I think the iphone "locks" quickly because it relies on network location as opposed to GPS.

Could be wrong, though.


How is the battery on the S3?
