  1. Some group needs to get a series of Nintendo costumes and get on a bunch of carts and go cruising around town, Mario Kart made real :)

     

    IMO Mario Kart makes most people think that karts are some sort of lame kiddie toys, when in reality proper racing gokarts are awesome machines.

     

  2. So it is just videocalling which the rest of us have been doing for the last 6/7 years? Other then the ability to turn a normal call into facetime on the spot, whereas now we have to hang up and call back?

     

    I love the way Apple can create a new phenomenon out of something that is years old. You get over the video calling very quickly means you can't do anything else whilst on the phone.

    You can't even do it anywhere you want, has to be over Wi-Fi only, lol.

  3. Obviously the cop wasn't going anywhere important if he decided to pull Sprite over. Setting a great example about safe speed :rolleyes: What makes it unsafe for Sprite to drive at 90 mph, but safe for the cop? is he somehow a significantly better driver? His car surely isn't safer at that speed than a Lambo.

  4. I hated my nexus one...I had it for 48 hours and then returned it and went back to my 3gs

     

    Android is the biggest joke of an operating system ever. The whole OS is a poor copy of the iphone OS

     

    Just buy a factory unlocked iphone off ebay and use that when you go to europe

    Yeah, that must be why Android passed the iPhone's smartphone market share in the US recently...

  5. I'm thinking of getting the Dell Streak. An Android based smartphone/tablet with a 5" screen.

    Damn, I havn't really been paying attention to this, but looks awesome. I especially like how they put extra work into customizing the Android interface to make sure it takes full advantage of the larger screen, something that seems lacking on the HTC Evo 4G. As long as the resolution is high enough to still look sharp at that size (in other words, hopefully it has retina technology :lol2: ), it should be awesome. The size is a bit worrisome, not sure if it would even fit into a jeans pocket.

     

    Edit:

     

    Lol, check out the glass strength: http://www.viddler.com/explore/engadget/videos/1449/

  6. I know. Marketing is on the level of Nike. Very good. This is how apple sells products. They made it seem like a very luxurious item also. Like new technologies were developed specifically for this phone.

    Yup, such as the "Retina" higher resolution technology :eusa_wall: I can already visualize it...

     

    "Yo bro, does your phone have "Retina technology"? Thought so..."

  7. What are the thoughts on Sprint's new Evo 4g phone?

    I was told ATT has crap service by a few people...

    That's the one I'm aiming for. I am looking to switch networks so it will be a good deal for me. Sprint has very attractive pricing on service it seems. However, do NOT get this phone until it is confirmed for sure that it will get the Android 2.2 "Froyo" update, which will make it much faster and add some more features. After playing with the Evo 4G and witnessing that glorious huge screen, I don't even want any other phone with a smaller one.

     

    I am currently using an iPhone 3G and I don't like it much. The main thing that sucks is the lack of multitasking. Looks like the iPhone 4 will have it, but only with the apps that Steve Jobs approves to multitask...

     

    Get one of the top Android phones if you like technology and customizing your gadgets, get the iPhone if you want something that "just works" and also if you like bending over for Steve Jobs.

  8. For fcuk's sake...the iPhone and Apple fanboyism is getting out of hand. Revolutionary? Changes everything again?

     

    OMGOMGOOMG VIDEO CALLZ AND HIGHER RESOLUTION DISPLAY? MY LIFE WILL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN :jack:

  9. One thing with sportbikes to make sure of is that you get some proper training and experience in how to ride them. A lot of people think they can just buy a powerful sportbike and start riding it with no experience whatsoever, that is asking for an accident.

    I'm looking to get into sportbikes in the near future to satisfy my need for speed since I won't be affording exotics anytime soon.

  10. Also with the HTC Evo 4G that is coming out on Spring beginning of June, you will be able to use it as a high speed wifi hotspot for up to 8 other devices (for an additional charge and if you have 4G in your area). If it proves to be fast and stable enough, it will render home internet obsolete for many people, since you can now have it everywhere with you at good speed.

  11. To be honest, I've always thought the regular newer police cars in the US look pretty good when clean and well-sorted (particularly with the new slim LED lights). They seem to give out sort of a serious and powerful image, unlike the smaller police cars in some other countries. Also, not sure about other countries, but cop cars in the US usually have more lightning than most nightclubs, so they look particularly good when in action.
