@Sicpup: I would love some new Android deals. Looking to replace my OG Droid in 4 months, and that Thunderbolt is looking mighty sexy...

@Caturday Yet?: Because you're a desperate student? I would have done it last year, when I was broke as hell and begging to be swiped into the dining hall so I could eat enough for 3 meals that day.

@AgentRockstar: Hahahaha oh those are dark days when I decide to kill time on the toilet by whipping out angry birds.

@fooogama: Those phones are still rootable. I believe the DX had one, and they got by it. Took them an extra week, and a few additional steps, but they cracked it.

@Mark 2000: They're sure helping to reduce both pilot risk and the extremely costly expense of flying 2-plane sorties across Afghanistan to deliver a single missile. Money well spent!

@Tonttunator: But appreciated.

@nka: Droid 2. Could be, I know the D2 was struggling mightily with the resolution. Each device could have its own quirks.
