Some people would claim that the Canadian usage is, historically, a bit comical:

Yeah, I could see that being an issue. Believe me, I don't think that it is beneficial to lose the Micro SD slot. I just don't know that I, personally, would lose a whole lot of benefit in the long run.

Yeah, it absolutely will be sad if everyone starts following this trend.

I know! Exactly what I thought. It looks like Google wants to change a few things about price, which REALLY needs to happen. Apple makes a killing off their App store and gets a lot of their phone production costs subsidized by carrier investment, and they still claim that they need to charge people high prices for…

Yeah, that was my reason for liking expandable memory back in the day. I keep all my stuff backed up on google/dropbox now, though. I haven't had to worry about losing data on my phone at all. An hour after picking up something with a fresh OS on it and I've got all my contacts, emails, photos, apps, etc back on the…

I'm really curious to see what the USB Host capabilities of this are. I'm assuming it will have full host capability with the trend of the phones up until now, but I just want to be sure.

Sell sell sell!

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. $300 unlocked is a great deal.

When I read your comment, my heart sunk...

The fourth individual is probably okay, as 6/10 of a SSN is probably not going to do much.

And I can say that Windows 7's previous versions implementation actually works really well.

Awesome, thanks for the pointers! Definitely looking forward to jumping back into this series when I get a chance.

I'm going to clone my windows partition over to a secondary partition and then upgrade the second one. Boot up from Windows 7 or 8 using grub until I've decided if I want to stick with 8.

Yeah, the GBA one just didn't do it for me. It was all pretty typical stuff. "Oh, my village is all gone, but I'm the last one." "I'm the hotheaded one, and he's the gathered, polite one." "I'm a typical badguy." It was just so typical, and the translation at times was... grating. Especially for Sain. The guy's lines…

I played the first one for a while and was really frustrated at the dialogue and how clunky the characters felt. They just seemed to be there as filler, with their stories, skills, backgrounds, motives, etc completely defined by their function in the game. The thing about the newer title is that it seems to try to do…

I picked up a Phenom II X6 1090T when the Bulldozers came out and that was one of the best choices I've ever made hardware wise. It was dirt cheap at the time, and the price has only gone up since because of how AMD's newer chips perform.

Now all I need is someone to come along and give me something of the highest possible importance without putting anybody's well-being in jeopardy, and that would help me get everything else done!

This is making me seriously consider picking up a PSP Vita. There's a lot about the device I really like, I just wish it would pick up a bit more in sales so that it can hit the point where they drop the price a bit :P

All of these tips are really cool for a party or function where you know everyone. But handing these out to kids from your neighborhood? Most of it will likely end up in the trash.
