If they've done this other times of the year, I haven't noticed. I was assuming it was always following CES, when the new models started shipping.

For the last 2 years, both Adorama and B&H have had the Canon "Super Bundle" in February, consisting of the last generation T-series DSLR, 2 lenses, a bag AND a 13" Canon printer for $900-$1000 with $400 mail-in-rebate. I'm hoping they do it again this coming year, because after 2 years of experimenting with Micro

I'm currently with Verizon, but I can't say they are the worst since I haven't had experience with any other carrier in over 4 years. They do a LOT of things that tick me off, but call quality, signal penetration and data speeds aren't among them. Our 4G is slower than it should be (averages around 18 mbps), but our

Poor Pash. Leaves Lifehacker and gets thrown in Whitson's "What have you done for me lately" list.

Good to know! I've been using CleanMaster for this, never knew it was built in.

Hmmm, especially when those luxury purchases might be Nexus devices being announced in the next 30 days??

I bounce back and forth between a fullscreen Dashclock and a UCCW Circle Clock with Simple Calender Widget below it for my homescreen, both with just one column of apps on the right. Usually it's UCCW/Simple Calender during the week so I can see my appointments, and Dashclock on weekends. Have them both saved as

You've obviously never tried Tasker...makes UCCW look like a kindergarten read.

I second APW. I actually never use Facebook from my phone and just use the APW widget to read my feeds. The Twitter widget is nice too.

So, does this mean you went back to iPhone Adam?

Not a "power user" per say, but I love stock Android and most manufacturer's skins drive me insane (Touchwiz and Sense). I have a Galaxy Nexus, but as everyone on Verizon knows, a Nexus on there isn't really a Nexus. My GNex will be lucky to see 4.3, and 4.4 is completely out of the question. The prospects of the

I am having this exact debate with myself at this moment. I owned and used both OS'es over the past 5 years, including an iPod Touch, 3rd Gen iPad, iPhone 4, HTC Rezound, Verizon Galaxy Nexus (my current phone) and 2 Nexus 7's. My upgrade is due in March and I'm really torn as to which way to go.

This was my biggest issue with my HTC Rezound. I took over a year for Verizon to dump ICS on it, then it was abandoned. That meant no Google Now for me, on a phone that I was stuck with for another 12 months. Rooting and ROMing wasn't the answer, as every ROM had a deal-breaking bug. I had to go out and buy a used

Exactly Whitson. My biggest beef right now. My Rezound basically became a paperweight a few months ago, HTC apps crashing constantly. Now my GNex FC's with Google+, gets laggy as hell using the keyboard (Swiftkey) and I've already done one factory reset in the 4 months I've had it! I still have 7 months to go on my

I'm currently an Android user now, but my contract is up in March. Anxious to try iOS7 on my old iPhone 4, might just make that decision difficult if I like it!

I've heard from quite a few people on the beta that iOS7 is a lot faster than iOS6 on the iPhone 4/4S

I can't wait wait for the day when these monopolies are busted up and we can get what we want, when we want a la carte. For me, I'm using the Roku 3 now, but it is getting less use since I got my Chromecast. Still, the connected box will have a place in my home, whether it's a Roku or Apple TV (ATV remains a

Personally, I don't care if there are ads as long as there is a skip button. Hell, sometimes I even watch them if they're good.

At least it reassures you that 99% of their budget was spent on software production...

I was using Cam Scanner then storing the receipts on Dropbox, but the last Google Drive update added Camera + OCR functionality, so that's what I'm using now. Works well and saves me a step.
