Umm — am I the only one that lives in NYC in a brownstone that can not connect to AT&T at all even with a microcell in my unit? A phone like this is more than useful to me.

I disagree. I find it very easy to use with mouse and keyboard. This is starting to sound like the Facebook Timeline arguments. The timeline works. Whether you like it or not is a matter of preference. Windows 8 works and works well. The arguments that it doesnt give a speed boost are on high end systems. It…

Multi-monitor setups work great. I really like the multiple desktop images.

I would like to see Valve's numbers on how many units were sold.

Have you actually used Windows 8 for more than a few seconds? Its WAY faster and uses less ram and cpu than windows 7. This alone is reason to switch. And is pressing the windows key and a few other VERY fast shortcuts really hard, seriously? You don't need a touch screen interface at all to get benefits out of…

Hamachi.

I am not sure that admitting bias is enough to make me buy into your arguments. I use both phones, and I must say Android in my opinion is far superior at this point in time.

I have the Billy Club patch to prove it - back in those days we had to take a photo of the screen with the console in view with connected joysticks and the cartridge displayed in the pic to get credit for skills to get the patches. I collected almost all of them from Activision and keep them in a safe these days. I…

You need to think about this:

Windows Media Center. The live TV part of WMC (with a HDHomerun Prime) is simply the best way to watch TV that there is.

Seriously — have you even tried to use an iphone 3g lately? The "updates" to this 3.5 year old device are half-assed at best. The phone when it was released worked well — its not even remotely functional now.

This is an important comment on this phone. Thank you for providing this rather than the common "It's too big". There are those of with big, fat hands that find smaller phones a bit dinky, and don't mind a larger phone.

Blow into the bottom part and it gets even bigger, like a balloon. Not too hard, or it will rip.

Some of these things should be referred to as "features" rather than features.

Dictation is slower than typing. It is MUCH slower than a combination of mouse and keyboard input. The reason it would even begin to work on a phone is the small interface and the awkward input of touch screen typing (you MUST look at the screen rather than having the "home" keys on a real keyboard). On a real…

Tandy TRS-80 Color Computer - Original Verison. Learned to program on this and it had amazing games for the time.

I don't understand why you think that the developers don't deserve to get paid. There is ALOT more that went into this game than most IOS games and while I also wish the price was cheaper, I feel that 99% of IOS software is garbage. Something that you take 5 minutes here and there to interact with until the next…

Agreed 100%

Why are we still using a 200 year old measurement of body composition in modern science?

the 4th dimension is time. Therefore a 3D movie is by definition 4D. I wish the media would start to use these terms correctly. Most high school physics students understand this without more than one explanation. I think blog readers are smart enough as well.
