@Clint Coady: When you get asked it 50 times a day, you have to keep logs of what you're telling to who. Also, you need to keep your fake Amazon wishlists straight.

I'm strangely turned on by that version of Chester Cheetah.

@DeeLite: Yeah, that's one of them. It makes me sad, too, because Sprint's navigation program (I think it's licensed from Telenav) is actually pretty decent.
