Re: thinking about leaving Sprint

wow the pre?... i would have gotten the hero baby.. that's the iphone for sprint for ya.... lol ;)

first of all the android right now will never compare to the iphone...iphone is killing it now especially with the apps....I dont care that u can customize the UI or edit your registry but u dont need to edit the registry b/c the iphone comes working with no flaws out the box unlike WM where are obligated to make registry changes so it works as an everyday device. Android is cool but what can u do with it...what is androids plan? atleast when iphone first dropped they had a plan u feel me. But hey to each is own

Re: thinking about leaving Sprint

I am just going to say this, if you don't like customizing your phone to the way you want it then get the ipone (mispelled on purpose, lol! No respect from me). If you like something that is standard and does not change then the ipone is for you. On the other hand if you like to create the phone to yoiur liking then I would get with the TP2, BB or PP. That is your decision to make, we can't make that for you all we can do is give you our thoughts and input, but you are the one that is going to make the final decision. If you like paying more money for your plan and other options for your phone go with ATT.

android is very nice and what do you mean they dont have a plan..... they seem tohave a great plan in my opinion.... they have a few different looks with the same function and style overall on all the devices, they expand to ALL CARRIERS, they have many different companies making android phones, they have a great and quickly growing app store, and on top of that the devices are sexy.... you are running linux on the android which is easily hackable but isnt necessary for the phone to run stable right out of the box.... so you have the best of both worlds with android but as you said to each his or her own and thats what great! i cant dog too much on the iphone anymore sicne i too have one and some of the apps are great but i personally feel that many of the apps are seriously useless.

Re: thinking about leaving Sprint

i like the speed of my ipod touch on wifi and if my contract with sprint was done the iphone would be something i would consider but that is not an option for me cause i just renew my contract march 1 09...i do like sprints plans i just wish i could get the hero for the 179 that best buy is going to sell them for but im not eligible for an upgrade for a while so keeping with pro.........

Re: thinking about leaving Sprint

The IPhone is clean and works well for many, especially those who are not into truly customizing(not saying all/just majority). A true junkie would prefer the more non-proprietary WM/Android platforms. This is where you can break everything down. For example, look at the HTC Touch Hero running the Android platform on it. Show me an Iphone that can do that. WM also has the possibility of running IPhone apps in the future. You have to purchase from there app store or jailbreak your phone. They do have a lot of apps(a lot :), but I agree with Dash, because a vast amount are worthless(my opinion). I also know that not a carrier out there is beating my plan and what I get for it. True story, but many of my colleagues(good friends) at work have an IPhone, but GSM service has a difficult time getting signals into our building. I have set my phone up with WiFi Router and let them use my Sprint TP to gain internet access, but as stated in previous posts "2 each his own" All I can say is you gotta know what it is your looking for, what it is you want, and what you want to have accomplished. Once you can figure that out, then you can narrow your decision down to what fits you and your needs.

(It's so funny, because I knew BroSki and Venum would be in this thread. I've seen you two on different occasions go back and forth on this in Palringo, lmao)
In the end, as long as you are happy with what you have, then that's all you can ask for, because that's who you will have to report to ;)

Re: thinking about leaving Sprint

Reason I say its not looking good is b/c of this:

http://www.maximumpc.com/article/news/google_issues_cease_and_desist_letter_android_rom_modder

This is not a good thing...and alot of those iphone apps got removed(the ones that were useless) b/c its true alot were useless as heck, but man until WM shows me they got capacitive screen coming, a ridonkulous app store, stable performance. bugger GPS,Signal chips, better Wifi performance and over all the battery, then im back with WM in a heartbeat, but which smartphone is good stock???? none its jsut iphone comes out the box working flawless performance wise, otherwise u will see urself resetting it once a day lol...sorry to say but its the truth. but thats my OPINION!!! we all have our own and know one is right or wrong.

damn! thanks for the info and thats too bad, i recommend that all sign the petition to keep his stuff going.... but just because of his roms being shelfed potentially your telling me that android isnt worth it? iphone dos the same thing with not allowing apps and *****ing about every little thing that looks like them and says they have to be taken down all the time.... they also make it so you can jailbreak by keep updating and making it harder and harder to get jailbroken..... and on top of all of that already apple is very babyish and wont let someone use itunes on a palm pre..... come on your still buying from itunes but just syncing with your device.... iphone ties shit and makes more lawsuites than any pother phone out there and honestly... i own both devices but could never make my main device an iphone..... just not enough there besdies games and useless apps in my opinion.... but as you said to he or she his own and nothing wrong with that.
