looks like they stole nokias e90 and put all of their crappy ai and os into it.
nokia e90 owns all of your phones and the ones above!
ppc-6700 = shit
up here in canada rogers is keeping that claim and rightfully so! elevators,tunnels, you name it only rogers/fido can manage these areas. all the networks still fight top coverage but who doesn't? but its no secret its far easier for a gsm network to go up then a cdma network. its also no secret that it won't take nearly as long for hsdpa to go nationwide compared to rev.2.
I have a simple question, and engadget(the idiots they are) should answer this since they started it. Why is it that Sony is getting the blunt of all the battery jokes, When every major electronic company has had some kind of battery/heating issue requiring rma/recall. why is it that microsoft and apple have not issued recalls for there own products? i do not own any of these companies products except for software and walkman phones(non-drm suckers). the xbox has more then enough issues to warrant recalls(dead babies) and there is enough documented proof of apple ipods and computer batteries exploding so where was any of their recalls? i think the majority of you talk out of your asses and i do not blame you for it as the shit writers here push you to regurgitate useless information. from my perspective I see a company who puts out product at their finished stages which will only require minimal updates like the ps3 and i see a company who jumps out and releases a product that goes through major cosmetic surgery every 3 months forcing their fanbois to spit up hundreds of dollars every time. who of these companies is supporting its customers more? does apple iphone come factory unlocked? did they not say that it would come out in europe with 3g? if you are an american and you bought a iphone you are the fucking idiot! apple just found another way to rip off even more people suckers. And its all because of these shit writers at engadget, i hope they got their cheques from apple!
motorola build quality is junk
by the end of the year all the offices upgrading to office 2007 will have done so. all you users of other formats better hope a docx addon comes to you!
my sony w850i was unlocked using a sony supplied license to a unlocking vendor in europe. the only warranty that is void is that of the carrier. if you bought a phone from a carrier it is the only warranty. most gsm phones are sold to the market unlocked but due to advertising most people only see phones advertised by carriers. and then there was steve jobs! no factory unlocked hardware will ever come out of the depths of the apple regime. they are trying to take over the world and controlling how you spend your money and what you do with there technology is the first step. the next step will be gassing millions of pc users and non iphone users who do not fit steves idea of the perfect person! Heil Steve!, Heil Steve!, Heil Steve!
i am seeing a similar argument here in regards to spec. you can not use retail as a comparison as you have the option to take 1-2 hours of your day and build your own pc. by doing so you will have higher spec for your money then any mac or store bought pc. building your own pc is not hard if you know how to read a manual! the feeling you get after building your own pc outweighs any feeling you will ever have after a store bought purchase. as far as looks are concerned the biggest trend in pc building is black with as much black inside as possible including pcb. Only an idiot would trust someone to build your computer. but any other company but apple will allow for complete hardware upgrade. As I have stated earlier my computer, which is priced similar to a mac has far better hardware then a mac and most store bought pc.
lets not even start with how crappy apple is at updating its own software! how long has it been between ichat updates. and in that time all the other major chat systems have grown including that of aim which for almost a year was incompatible to ichat. whos fault was that? well any smart software programmer will make sure their software is updated to be compatible with the growing trends. for the first time steve jobs has publicly admitted that he failed to realize how much people wanted 3rd party applications. Don't forget his main goal was to force everyone to only use apple software on the iphone. that lasted about a week! this is what is going to force apple into mainstream. this is what will force apple to open up its hardware possibilities and compatibility. this is what will eventually allow mac users to play a few more games. every time a new mac comes out the only thing that remains that is mac is the os. it is kind of embarrassing that they would force their users to use a below standard ati video card especially with amds woes and nvidias dominance.this is a step back and will further slow apples progress in bringing mac into this century of graphics and gameplay.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I commonly need to boot a system from an external disc and take a snapshot of the host system. I also then need to burn a copy of the image to a DVD. While I can do it with two separate external devices, and two power supplies, and two I/O cables, it'd be nice to find a small dual-drive enclosure. It would need to have USB, eSATA, and FireWire. Either slim-line or half-height bay for the optical burner would be fine, and space for either a 2.5- or 3.5-inch hard disc. Any ideas?"
