Well, I probably belong to that crowd as well although I won't refuse either one if I can get it as my company phone. Actually, I'm thinking I might want to either stick w/ a BB (for the keyboard) for now or go w/ either the GS3 or Note 2, assuming I can opt for either for my company phone. I...

Doesn't seem to apply to Verizon if the site is correct. Oh well... _Man_

I think the biggest drawback for me might still be the poor battery life. Which affordable, bigger battery "upgrade" would you recommend? I don't mind the extra bulk (w/in reason) -- in fact, I prefer something a little heftier anyway -- especially as a trade-off for substantially better...

That's why I do eventually upgrade the software. But I'm not gonna obsess over every single iteration of these things though. IF there are enough compelling reason(s) in any given instance, I'll do it. In a way, I guess you can consider "it broke" in those instances w/ "it" being the...

But do people *really* care all that much though? That was my actual point. IF I'm regularly pestered about installing an update, I'll probably eventually install it too. Although yes, of course it helps that Apple makes it relatively hassle-free compared to Android, but it's not...

http://theamazingios6maps.tumblr.com/ When I still had the old, 2nd-gen iPod Touch, only reasons I wanted to upgrade to iOS 3 were: 1. They finally fixed some problem w/ Apple Lossless playback in iOS 2.x -- IIRC, it used to have random audio dropouts, but I could be remembering...

Most people probably don't really care like we would here. Sure, people like/want something new now-and-then, but most don't obsess about the minutiae of it all like we do here. This is probably an editorial exaggeration of sorts, but this Jimmy Kimmel "first look" illustrates the point quite...

But didn't you point out in the past that we don't need the higher PPI since we don't generally sit a mere foot or so from a big honking HDTV display? I think 1080p (in full color depth -- although BD isn't actually full color in general) is plenty good enough unless you're going for a big...

Don't know about that. I usually let my old BB Tour's battery run down (over 2 full days of usage for me) after each full recharge and have been doing so for ~3(?) years now. It only started to show noticeable degradation in recent months, but still usually lasts me 1.5-or-so days usage unless...

Probably depends on your specific use case (and perhaps how likely you'll upgrade the phone again before the battery runs down enough from frequent/daily recharging to not hold enough charge for a typical full day's use anymore). For me, since I don't like to upgrade/change phones so...

Actually, I mean going w/ *both* extra battery and separate portable charger for the extra battery. Presumably, you'd need/want a separate charger since you're not going to use the phone to recharge the out-of-juice battery since the other fully charged battery will be in place. And I'd think...

Ooooh. Think I see it now -- 5000pts = $100 in RZ GCs. I didn't see it the first time I checked. Thanks. Were you able to do it for a phone upgrade on existing line w/out problems? I'd be doing it for an existing line on old Verizon family-share plan (not their crazy new...

How do you get this offer? I'm checking, but don't see it on MyRZ.com. OR is it only for new lines or not for Verizon? OR is it over now? Thanks. _Man_

I don't know about others, but our iPad 3 sure as heck could use easier/quicker access to toggling WiFi and cellular signal on/off separately. You can do whatever you want on your own devices, but I'd rather save the battery some both for the short term (ie. battery life of each current...

Do they sell inexpensive, separate, very portable chargers for the batteries? That might help some as well (so you can always plug it in for recharge wherever you happen to stay for a couple hours or so). Yeah, I heard that Android's cellular standby process is a bit of a battery hog (at...

IMHO, poor battery life is a fail though, especially if you intend to use this thing regularly *and* still need it for phone calls. I guess you can carry an extra battery all the time, but still... I think any mobile device should last at least 2 full days of normal usage on a single full...
