I thought Sprint users had free roaming onto Verizon's network as well as use Sprint's own network. Verizon on the otherhand, can't. I don't see how Sprint can be any less dependable than Verizon considering they both use the same towers, but Sprint also has a couple of it's own towers for better coverage.

The Adamo XPS uses a SU9400 C2D. Even the first gen Macbook air is more powerful than that. In fact, most notebook CPUs are vastly more powerful than the Adamo XPS. The chip's strength is battery life, so don't be worried about processing power.

Does anyone know if there's a volume button? I saw in the video that the side button brings up the on screen control, but are there physical buttons I can use to adjust the volume without looking at the screen? It's not that big a deal, but it would definately be something I would use.

I don't know why people are complaining about the laggy and overall slow response time of the UI. I don't know about you, but every smartphone I've used is laggy. This isn't something new. Besides the iPhone 3GS, what other phones have a near instant response time? I love my Bold's useability and battery, but I know that when compared to my Core2duo laptop, it's not going to have that same "snappyness". Does speed really mean so much? As "slow" as you guys are making the HTC magic to be, I bet it is a really useable phone in real life. Taking an extra second or two to open an app or a website won't really hurt your productivity if the overall UI is useable. If you guys really just want speed, just get the iPhone 3GS and be done with it...of course then you'll have to put up to Apple's crappy UI and thousands of useless apps that people clutter the marketplace with. Android + 1 or 2 seconds sounds like a much better choice.

You guys are all misinformed. The Navigation app DOES NOT CLOSE when you receive a phone call. It still runs in the background while you are talking. It'll still give you turn by turn directions WHILE YOU ARE ON THE PHONE. After you finish your call, all that happens is the phone app "bar" at the top goes away. However, while you are driving, and you are the one that wants to initiate the call, then you'd have to exit the app and dial (unless you do voice dial).

Considering he's on the board of directors at Apple and received the original 1G iPhone for free (and it's not too farfetched to believe board members also received their 3GS for free), it wouldn't be unusual to see him using one.

My Macbook Pro gets close to 8 hours with wifi on and streaming audio while doing normal tasks (i.e. internet, email, photoshop, excel, and occasional videos). I'm sure it lasts less than 8 hours if I was playing a 3D game.

My Asus 1000He also gets over 7 hours of battery life (battery saver mode) while being on wifi with internet explorer and aim.

I've used other laptops in the past before with long lasting battery claims, and none of them had ever performed significantly worse than advertised. However, my gaming laptops and others with rated 2-3 hours battery life can never even achieve 1.5 hours, and that's without playing any games.

So it seems like if the manufacturer emphasizes good battery life, that's what you'll get. If battery life is an afterthought, even the crappy 2 hour life in their specs is optimistic.

The DS lite is thinner than the PSP and the DSi is thinner than the PSP slim. How much thinner do you want?

Even though the iPhone's release date was after the LG Prada, the iPhone design started and finished before LG. Check the patents related to the iPhone as early as 2004. Also, the iPhone was submitted to the FCC for approval way before LG's Prada. The reason the Prada came out first was because LG already had it's supply chain running smooth while Apple still had issues with the packaging box.

Don't forget that the Kindle is also a free 3G web browser, although it's usefulness depends on what web pages you visit. Engadget and other blogs work well. Video sites or high graphics sites hardly work at all. It's great for checking email on the go.

Also, after a year of ownership, you can still sell the Kindle 2 for close to the price you bought it for. Ask the Kindle 1 owners (or former owners) or check ebay. Also, if you subsribe to any magazine/newspaper, that's where the real savings are because I admit that some books really aren't worth the $10 pricetag.
