They are now just spamming above their usual obnoxiousness. It is really just beyond time to thin out a few of them seeing that they all just repeat the same garbage.]]>May 27th 2009 3:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/
As for Sprint TV, TeleNav, etc..., I don't really care. I'd rather have a cheaper plan that didn't have all the addons which I don't use. I certainly don't want to have to pay for services I don't use.

This is good for Palm, and good for AT&T, and bad for Sprint, but who cares about Sprint? I want a Pre, and if it's on AT&T it's lot easier and cheaper as my wife has an iPhone.

You can't say anything?" without giving them a chance to actually SAY SOMETHING.
3) I have used an iPhone. I don't like it.
4) Multitasking. Typing (i prefer a hardware keyboard). Notifications. Bluetooth. Unrestricted access to your own phone, and unrestricted choice of applications. Sure, the iPhone does some things better. but the restrictions and missing features are still way to major for a lot of people to live without. ]]>May 27th 2009 4:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/May 27th 2009 3:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/May 27th 2009 3:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/May 27th 2009 3:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/May 27th 2009 3:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/May 27th 2009 5:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/

But for Windows users complaining about iTunes being bloated, why not do something about it? Either don't use iTunes in the first place, or don't install everything included in the iTunes installer. There are ways of slimming it down, like this: http://blogs.zdnet.com/Bott/?p=554

I'll never understand why Windows users complaining about iTunes like if it's the most bloated piece of software out there, yet they deal with the same shit when they buy a PC from a manufacturer. They should be experts at removing bloatware since their damn OS comes with it.

And gaming on iPhone, oh you make me laugh! iPhone games suck. If you want a real gaming device, get a DS or a PSP.

@ampMOD: Even when keeping the install slim and light, there is still significant performance loss. The program is optimized for Mac OSX.

personally, I don't like sprint much these days and I might be in the market for an iphone, which would permanently bind me to itunes (thankfully, I have a macbook pro and don't have to sully up my gaming rig). I hate that fact and I'll miss just dragging files to my phone (like on my blackberry), but just for apps and music I can tolerate it. however, understanding WHY people want to have drag & drop simplicity is easy.

thanks and have a good day.]]>May 27th 2009 3:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/May 27th 2009 3:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/Att Required Data Plan - 30

Math skills not what they used to be? 39+30+20= 89 not 119.

Still more then Sprint but not by as much. :)]]>May 27th 2009 3:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/

GPS: $10
TV Basic: $30

And if you're talking about the 450 minutes, you also need to add the Early Nights and Weekends charge.

Early Nights and Weekends: $9

-------------------------------

ATT Unlimited equivalent = 189
Sprint Everything = 99
Difference of 99

ATT 450 equivalent = 138
Sprint Everything Data (without Rollover) = 69
Difference of 69 (Does twice as much justify Rollover? )

So both you'll be paying twice more in ATT than with Sprint. ]]>May 27th 2009 4:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/27/atandt-plans-to-sell-palm-pre-when-sprints-exclusivity-ends/
