I'm back!

Found someone to evenly swap a relatively new iPhone 3GS for my Samsung Focus today. Shibby!

Don't tell me you're a one device man?!

Welcome back. Missed ya on the forums.

 

[ctt1wbw]

Yeah, I'm a poor man.

 

[dwayne.williams]

Welcome back.

 

[BLiNK]

glad to have you back.. so tell me, were you hanging out in the 'Focus' forums too??

 

[itsalexaye]

welcome back

Welcome back to the sane platform did you really swap a Focus for a 3Gs why not a 4?

No, mainly over at wpcentral.

Yep, a straight up even trade. They were both about the same money value on eBay. The iPhone 4 was twice the value so I couldn't find someone to to that.

But you can only, in reality, use one at a time! Unless you're really good! lol.

Or rich. Which I am not.

Oh yeah, I forgot the rich part, which I am not either. If my stupid Mega Millions or Powerball numbers came in one of these days that would be a different story. However, I stil think I'd only use 1 phone at a time. I would probably own more than one, just so I could switch em up should I choose to do so! lol, Ah the dreams of winning the lotto!

I am constantly made fun of because of the number of phones I have. They're everywhere. I couldn't even justify another phone right now, which is why I bought the Galaxy Tab...instead of an Android phone.

But I've still got my eye on the LG Optimus 3D. One of the things I like about being with a GSM carrier is the ability to switch phones around at a whim.

It is about time. lol

That LG looks sweet. The new shiney phones are getting more and more advanced with better screens. The only downfall, imho, is Android. I despise Android. With a passion.

I keep trying Android, and in some cases, within a day, switch back to iOS. It's nuts. Android is cool in some ways, but I always come "Home". It's tough to abandon the Apple ecosystem.

I'll tell ya one thing - I will never put up with anyone downing iTunes again after spending a week with the various Android stores. They are awful! That's Marketplace and Amazon.

The os, itself, still shows a lot of promise and I'm not finding too much there that I really dislike.

I haven't had an awful experience...granted, the quality of apps on Android leaves something to be desired, and I have found the Market to be a bit chaotic, but there's lots of innovation there. For instance, the ability to pick an app from the Market webpage and have it downloaded to one or more Android devices OTA is brilliant. I don't like that you have to select one app at a time, on the device, each device, to have it auto-update in future.

Having said all that--I don't like that I have to worry about managing memory, worry about sideloading apps (which only a handfull, in my experience, are able to load onto the SD card), and have to spend so much time worrying about app management. Honestly, I like that iOS devices have ONE chunk of memory, and we can choose to fill it up as we see fit, and it all just is stored in one place. Smart.

Welcome back bro. Glad you dumped that windows phone.

Welcome back bro. Glad you dumped that windows phone.

WP7 itself is very nice, HOWEVER... The Samsung Focus was cheap imho. And the apps SUCK donkey balls. I'm talking awful. Pathetic.
