@KaneRobot: Not that I'm going to argue against Rock Band 3's quality... but your last sentence is completely undone by Power Gig, remember?

I'm moving this weekend, and playing a shit-ton of stuff I've picked up recently: Lost Planet 2, the Humble Bundle stuff, Kane & Lynch 2, Nier, Kinect Adventures, Kinectimals, Kinect Sports, Dance Central, and Fable 3.

@akuma_619: Perhaps it was... it was working on the 13th, 14th, and 15th, at least... here's the Engadget story on it. [www.engadget.com]

@o0RaidR0o: Samsung is bad, but with the exception of the Behold II (where they've just been unforgiveable, lying dicks) they're usually just slow. It's one thing for the five Touchwiz-based Galaxy S devices to still be on 2.1, but Sony-Ericsson and Dell have modern devices still running 1.6, with no firm ETA on even…

@akuma_619: Saw it mentioned just yesterday, on Engadget or BGR, that T-Mobile was doing it for $50 through the holidays, but only through the site, not B&M.

@Derfel: I want to go to Windows Phone, I really do... but Android's just so capable.

@Biokinetica: More like, get with it, Dell and Sony-Ericsson. The telecoms really have less to do with updates and fragmentation than those few wretched manufacturers who release modern hardware with ancient software.

@joshmchau: Navigation is part of Maps. Google Earth, sure, but Maps, Places, and Navigation are all the same thing.

@HunterShoptaw: I have to respectfully disagree... there are great Android phones which cost a tiny, tiny, tiny fraction of what you paid for your Garmin— the Aria on AT&T is $9.99 on contract, the G2 on T-Mobile is currently $50 with contract, the Huawei One devices are (I believe) $9.99 on contract... those are just…

@mandin82: It's deeply questionable if this awesomeness will make it to the iPhone. I don't think the iPhone version of Google Maps ever offered turn-by-turn voice navigation, and the Android version's had it forever. Some features that happen in Android, stay in Android.

@TheNobleRobot: Evil but very, very well done.

I'm going to pass on this. Wake me up when MODO finally releases a modern iteration (and no, 3.xx doesn't count, at all)... that game has been a buggy pile of crap since day one.

Damn it to hell, I've more-or-less got to pick up the poodle. And then I've more-or-less got to be invariably mean to it. Poodles are just awful, pernicious beasts.

I hope they don't muscle him out. I can't imagine Robert Downey, Jr., is going to go to the mat for Favreau (who wants to endanger his golden role for a friend, no matter how he treasures the relationship?)... I just know that I really like Favreau's take on the feeling of the Iron Man world.

@slack04: You're mistaken. This isn't a sponsored post.

@dyowell: To be fair, your complaints have less to do with Android and more to do with Samsung. It was also known at launch that the Fascinate was to be lower on the totem pole than many of Verizon's other Android devices (see, they have this policy of using Bing Search only on non-flagship devices, which is why you…

@Norbs: Apple said from the beginning that they intended FaceTime to be an open platform, albeit one they controlled. I can't imagine they'd object mightily to anyone using it (provided they pay, of course).

@Nye!: You take the red pill - you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes. [xda-developers.com]

@MACaroni: Unless you're running one of the two Nexuses (Nexii?), it depends wholly on your phone. If you've got a modern device by a manufacturer with a decent track record of pushing Android updates (like HTC) then you'll (probably) continue to receive updated versions of Android for at least a year. If you've got…

@vsound: There are ways to make your Incredible do pretty much anything you want. Once an Android build hits AOSP, someone's going to make a Vanilla ROM for pretty much every phone out there, just root and push it.
