Yeah that is pretty lol.
I think their reluctance to release as a real paid app came from the fact they're not quite confident they've got the game working right yet. |

they sold 6 million on appstore and crashed the servers doing 1 million in an hour via getjar for android... anyway they are probably jsut after exposure now. looking for the next big game and investors, who knows what their plan is but they are getting coverage thats for sure.

So it's probably not a good idea to share touch-screen devices.
But surely the same can be said of mice & keyboards?

Man this thread sucks balls. My OS is better than your OS... fuck it, just enjoy the gear you have, or post how something made your life easier by owning a particular piece of hardware.

Nah, the N8 is awesome for hardware that's nearly 3 years old. Still offering features that iPhone and many Android phones don't offer, as much as it's falling behind in other hardware-related areas.
It's the OS that's going to stop him posting good things in this thread

Fuck you guys
I don't have a personal connection with any software developers, phone manufacturers etc. I just like geeky gadgets, and N8 is flavour of the month. Here is my reasoning for this: Galaxy S looks pretty sweet, but like cyc, I don't like how Samsung is useless with FW updates and GPS has a problem of some sort... SE anything is pretty shit, they apparently killed their Symbian development to concentrate on... making hardware on outdated software? Good business plan if there was any... HTC is awesome, but almost every model has something hardware-wise which is missing for me, or it's too expensive. That new non-US version of Evo looks fantastic, but screen is just crap for a $1200 phone. I also don't get Android phones, there are all these versions, and some might be updated, some not and I have to somehow keep a track of all of those things?? No thanks. Another fundamental flaw is inability to install apps onto a memory card. So you have powerful hardware, but only 150 megs free of system memory... good luck installing awesome games for that awesome hardware in years time. Apple... well I'd be lying if I didn't think that 4G is great. But, the hardware is faulty, it is artificially gimped and I want Steve to get cancer for being such a cock. I'm serious. Once that douche is gone from the company, I might even celebrate by buying a mac or something. I fundamentally hate the prick for making me install itunes or quicktime over so many years and for having the balls to say to hold my fucking phone differently because it has a hardware problem. No thanks. OS wise, no homescreen widgets and lock screen is useless, tied to itunes, no drag and drop, plus no multitasking - all a big no in my books. As for the N8, Nokia has made a great hardware checklist, but the OS is fucking ugly with not many apps or swish effects but none of that bothers me as the core experience works. You hook it up to your USB, and you can sync music via WMP. Or drag files onto it. Homescreen shows emails, and messages. Don't need more than that, except maybe a cool stock report widget so I feel important and businessman-like. I can sync photos as well to PC when I connect it up via USB, which finally also charges the phone. Battery life is decent (much better than 'droid 2.1 stuff). Nokia have a good track record with FW updates, and all the negatives discussed regarding N8 will be more or less fixed by the time I have moneys for a new phone (ie. new browser, maps, swype) It's a bit of a windows 2000 really. Ugly but still used by banks (cue crocos...) everywhere. Winpho7... get fucked. MS has released Windows 7, and that was the last thing they've done really good. Ballmer should make babies with Jobs, they're made for each other. (a picture of a bald goblin wearing a turleneck with pancreatic cancer pops to mind... :S.) HOLY SHIT, what a long boring post. In the next episode, I will tell you how I do my daily poop routine, and how I nearly clipped my toenails last nite.

holy fuck you have issues dude.
read the apple part. and then read the nokia part. and only focus on the parts where he discusses the product itself. you literally have no idea what using/owning an iphone is like. Proven by statements like Quote:

Iphone hardware is not 'gimped', and any number of quotes from John Carmack will back this up. You can manage your photos with windows explorer, using drag and drop You can charge the phone over USB and that's ignoring the idiotic jobs-rage you have going on. Don't get me wrong, I think Ballmer and the entire microsoft management team at every level is full of fucking morons, but that doesn't stop me using windows 7 or office.

So the antennae is fixed? And you can have any two or more apps running without closing some of them? When you connect the USB, does it show up as removable storage like a USB drive in windows? My boss who owns an iphone4 can't even copy his non-itunes mp3s off the phone to his mac. Gimped in other words for no reason other than to be tied down to itunes. Sorry, unless I'm completely wrong, and the answer was yes for all of those than that is my problem with apple. Take it or leave it dude.
Oh yeah, my morning poo is always better after I had a cup of coffee. Sometimes I can even take a dump as soon as I hear the jug and I dunno why. Pro tip for poo management - eat fibers, and I heard smoking also helps.

I dare say you would probably be perfectly content with a jailbroken ip4 if it wasn't for your moronic hatred of Steve Jobs.

does the iphone4 let you set a section of the storage to 'data' so it can easily be used to sync mp3s from winamp?

I can get my work iP4 to drop bars if I hold it normally in my left hand. I'm in a shit area for reception though so probably exaggerates the effect. I rarely hold it in my left hand when making calls so it is a non issue for me.

Lek: Android supports Apps 2 SD. look it up. All my apps that support instalation to SD install there by default.
And really it isnt that hard, just pick a flavour. and install it. took me all but 30 mins. And it really is nice to have a little browse and have options to install different OS, i appreciate that. If i dont like it i can change it, unlike other phones where all u can do is whinge into space and hope someone at the company hears you and makes a change to their product.

I just use a HTC desire with the leedroid 2.1 rom (mod of froyo 2.2)
links are on my site below on how i rooted it and romed it. pretty straight foward. theres 2 versions of leedroid one that supports the apps 2 SD and one that doesnt. the main difference being your SD card needs a ext3 partition, all can be setup on the phone with a blank SD after the process of roming is complete. http://leedroid.protogenlabs.com/ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768703 http://leedroid.protogenlabs.com/faqs/
