I’m so, meh, on the state of the mobile industry right now. It was a lot of fun in 2008-2009 when the iphone was just getting good, the motorola droid came out and there was this super fast race for dominance. Now the market is diluted with completely useless features like Siri and Google Now. People argue about the better platform even though both are pretty good. Maybe if Windows and Blackberry catch up, it will spark another round of innovation. I’m not hopeful. No idea what I’ll do when my upgrade is elegible. Maybe I’ll just buy a used iPhone 5 and let my contract go month-to-month. ---

No idea what I’ll do when my upgrade is elegible. Maybe I’ll just buy a used iPhone 5 and let my contract go month-to-month. I’m looking forward to the first phone that can project a keyboard onto any flat surface for me to type on. They already have this one: [http://www.amazon.com/Celluon-Magic-Projection-Keyboard-Touchpad/dp/B005ES6E6W/ref=sr\_1\_cc\_1?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1360270513&sr=1-1-catcorr&keywords=magic+cube+laser+projection+keyboard](http://www.amazon.com/Celluon-Magic-Projection-Keyboard-Touchpad/dp/B005ES6E6W/ref=sr_1_cc_1?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1360270513&sr=1-1-catcorr&keywords=magic+cube+laser+projection+keyboard) And I’ve heard it’s surprisingly decent for typing. Just gotta wait for someone to integrate it into a phone. ---

> [@Fry](#): > > :tup: It’s always worth trying new stuff. Agreed, and there are some features I really like better. Bottom line though if you can’t get the core functionality to work right 100% of the time having extra features isn’t really worth it. ---

I’ve had sprint for 15 years now, I get more and more pissed everyday because they still don’t have 4g LTE. I use my htc evo 4g LTE mostly for Internet browsing during the day and regular old 3G blows. It sucks that the phone is called a 4g LTE and the shit don’t work around here. ---

Little review on N4. I really like it. Fast, smooth, 4.2.1, dl speeds are about half LTE out of the box, have yet to play with APN settings. Its different than touchwiz on the S3, took a few mins to get used to. Just popped in sim card and it was ready to rock.
