It's not 10 AM here yet. Only 9 more hours until I get home to my baby.

Not quite used to it yet, but very comfortable, just can't find where I can see who called me (missed calls and received calls)

Form factor is better than iPhone and any HTC's and it looks incredibyl cool

The largest impediment to getting a smart phone for me (besides cost of data plan) is, where does a man put such a big phone?
It doesn't look like it would fit the pocket of a pair of jeans?

form factor is one of the good things about this, it's very thin and easily fits into my esprit jeans pockets, no probs with Levi's 501 too.....

Even into shirt pockets it's quite ok.... although a bite heavy for this location ....

Although I'm not sure it's so much smaller than Iphone 4S

I've been holding out, but I guess it's inevitable.
I still have my LG flip phone from six years ago.....and I hate carrying that around.

About cost of data plan... can be controlled, you can turn the data connectivity off..... and you can control how the GPS and map systems use data connections.....

Wow.... seems like I'm posting even more than Adam today

Yeah... when people crack..... in big laughs when you take out your phone..... I guess it's time to do something about this

Oh....it's not that. I don't care what other people think.
I've never really liked carrying anything....not even a wallet.
So going to such a big phone will be an adjustment.

Put it in the waistband of your skirt.

I'm with you. I have a Samsung flip phone. It's for making calls. That's it. It has the abbility to do internet etc, but I'm not interested. I spend 10 hours a day on a computer already.

I refuse to shave my legs.....I'm really pressed for time in the morning.

Like a dollar for your strippers?

Delivered the Fire to my dad last night and we spent some time messing around on it. The screen looks great, it is surprisingly very fast and my dad, who is decidedly not an "early adopter" of technology, liked it. It had to perform updates already, as soon as we connected it to their wifi, which only took about 2 minutes. I'm pretty impressed with it so far.

I was like that until I got my iPhone 4. Earlier this year, I was still carrying around my aged flip phone. Heck, even carrying the flip phone was a huge step. When I first got it, I cancelled the land line and left the cell at home as a home phone.

Now, I don't see how I lived without a smart phone. I use it constantly and never approach the 1g limit on my plan.

I still hate it when people actually call me. What...? Are your text-thumbs broken?

Absolutrely agree, just trying to be funny

I agree.... but
I just can't live without Skype on the phone !!!!!!!!!!

That's a sweet looking phone, Harald. How comfortable is it to use?

Well, for your use, it doesn't look very comfortable at all. Perhaps something a bit more cylindrical...?

 

[Adam]

Perhaps something a bit more cylindrical...?

Nah, flat is much better for watching movies. A cylinder would just roll right off your back.

 

[Adam]

I think if all my posts containing some sort of homosexual undertone were deleted, I'd probably be a Samurai again. I'd say something lower, but I used to read a lot of manuals back in the day.

You would watch a movie!? No wonder you can't maintain a relationship...
