@Carol Nichols: Lol, how'd she change it?

@BobFraggle: Ah strawmanning, the last defence of the just-plain-wrong :)

"scored an off-sides"

@Kat Hannaford: No problem, enjoy :)

@Teds McTeddington: That much of it is already integrated, just click "earth" in local in a compatible browser.

@Knuckleguise: Just click "earth" in google local on a compatible browser.

@RawheaD: Sorry, who are AT&T? OK, I'm being pedantic - I do know - but the phone is available in markets outside America. In the UK I think all carriers are offering it this time round.

@BGR: Hehe, sounds like someone is unhappy with their old 3G :) I'm kidding, yeah I suppose it was a bit further than most people would go. Does highlight how broken the model of cs-reps-with-no-power-or-training is though. They're just glorified web sites in a way.

@BGR: Did you read the story?
