@SuddenImpact: Maybe come up with a response that isnt priggish?

@SuddenImpact: Huh? I never said cdma could do voice and data, i said it can do voice an sms texts.

@daPrinz: Right, but it can do voice and sms, correct? I am assuming so because my cdma palm pre does it...

I'll admit, I took the time to read her book "Going Rogue," and found it to be an interesting story.

@killerjackalope: Gotcha, i obviously have failed reading comprehension. Whoopsies.

@WestwoodDenizen: It is something to be excited about, it is a big leap forward that they have a bluetooth device that can last 2 years on a battery.

When I go on long drives, I prefer to listen to a bit of talk (or audiobook) with my music. I have been into podcasts recently because the only talk radio I seem to find on the AM dial are nut-jobs yelling about politics.
