I’m not saying that Androids don’t get bogged down overtime, but they don’t seem to have obsolescence pushed to them over the air.

Funny how you forget to mention that “Slow Android” doesn’t seem to have the same trend.

I had an iPhone 3g and the “slowness” when I upgraded it two generations later wasn’t in my head. Apple does the same thing Microsoft used to do with windows -intentionally handicap your device so that you want a new one.

Buy second hand. You can save hundreds of dollars buying a phone that’s just a few months old from Swappa and Ebay.

Android solves this problem in a different way then Apple. Apple uses the OS update as an opportunity to cripple your phone. Android manufacturers simply stop sending out updates after about two generations. Which is fine really. If you have a two year old phone then you probably don’t care that it isn’t going to be…

Or, buy someone else’s depreciated phone for half price 3 months after it’s released.

There is only one laptop in the world worth buying on any platform: a Microsoft Surface Pro 3. It’s a light year ahead of anything else on the market.

Your error is that a “100” is not a perfect score. It’s an arbitrary limit that can be beat and then readjusted.

There are two ways to look at this. For me, $200 to wait an hour when I’m not in a particular hurry to get to my destination is pretty good compensation, in my opinion, and I might save someone who is in a hurry the risk of getting bumped.

minor correction:
“Sounds less like a “close call” and more like “what will be daily life far sooner than the experts believe.”

Russia is a few years late on the “proof” game. Japan beat them by a couple of years.

Didn’t Japan just do exactly this?

If I was an executive of Freightliner I would have my company to cover the insurance. If you can’t get insurance, we stand behind our product. We will meet state insurance requirements for our product.

Like a friend, huh... No thank you.

“Turn Right... Right NOW, NOW!!
... Oh, oops, that was supposed to be a left...”

The better solution for Nintendo is just use MicroUSB for the power like every other portable electronic device in the world (sans Apple). Use MicroUSB and I would agree, leave the thing out because I have 900 usb chargers already.

If it doesn't have quick charging, why would anyone want this? Anyone know if it supports the existing chedemo infrastructure?

Pretty sure this is the analog version you are looking for

I never beat X-wing. It just seemed like the missions never ended and I finally gave up on it.

Tie Fighter was the better game of the two.
