cool, speculating speculation...

yea i saw a guy using skype and he had to hold his mac book to his ear too.. lol im sure the xpphone can use headphones.. lol

Thats true.. Id never get an iphone but I reccomend it for people who I think would like it.. Every platform has pluses and minuses..

So do you have a life or what?

If you want a droid with no keyboard... Buy a droid and keep it closed.. It roughly the same thickness as an iphone so it probably wont get any thicker anyway.. If they wanted to force you to use the keyboard it would be the only option.. But the droid is as thin as non keyboard phones and has an onscreen as well.. So if you dont like it dont use it

And people stop complaining about the chip speed.. Your crazy if you think a real homescreen is gonna run as fast as an icon grid.. The Hero is fast, not minimalist icon grid lightning fast but for having a real live homescreen its great. The day you find the "perfect" phone you will be dead and in heaven. Until then its give and take.

Looks for all the people with inside connects that said the VZW Hero was an upgrade from Sprints.. Tell Engadget to fix the story...

Your condescending tones are quite amusing.. I'm very adept at geography. If Nokia is European, that would make Rim American.. Period. (like I said)

I am quite aware that Symbian and Nokia are two different entities. But if Symbian chooses to only move were Nokia lets them (and while Nokia moves on to more capable platforms) that's their fault. And that would mean their North American deployment is dependent on Nokia. (like I said)

And your right that Google does make alot of money off of their customers but your number are terribly inflated. Google doesnt make 100,000 dollars a year off of any one person. If a thousand millions is a billion.. (you see where Im going)

And its funny how you say American users are cattle when we have WM, BB, Android, Iphone, and Web OS to choose from and the rest of world has only Symbian. Sounds like the opposite. (you could count maemo but as for now its more of an internet tablet platform). And then your comment saying the only advantage MS and Rim have are knowing how much of a sloth the American consumer is laughable. MS and RIM devices are hardly marketed and are for more advanced users. The same reasons that you gave for Symbian being superior to the iPhone.

You have alot of spite in your comments and it clouds your judgment. And for the record I use WM.

Yea palm should be paying us to take this piece of crap with the best mobile os ever off their hands. I know the apps arent there and I would love some homescreen options but its the cleanest os hands down. Perfect phone for my mom and sis. Maybe you guys forgot how many phones the centro sold. And in SoCal I know more Pre owners than iPhones. So this phone makes since and it will be 70 or 80 bucks prolly by Christmas. I wouldn't be caught dead with a pixi, but Palm isnt my girlfriend I dont mind if they make phones for other people..

How is it possible for google to make 100,000 per year off a consumer who grosses only a fraction of that? The average persons yearly disposable income is not much. With google focusing on advertising and demographics I dont see how they can pull that kinda money in.

And Americans must not be that far behind since every smartphone os besides the two that Nokia uses are American made (Rim is North American smart ass lol). And phones like the iPhone and Android arent even really competing against traditional smartphones like Blackberry, Symbian, and WM. They are taking all the old razr, and chocolate users. What are you supposed to do when people paid 300 dollars for a razr instead of getting a BlackBerry or Winmo phone?? With the advancements in technology in only makes sense that new featurephones would have some smartphone features.

And until Symbian makes a whole hearted attempt to become relevant in the US now one will care about them. Nokia will make a half assed release of a run of mill symbian phone every few years.. Yawn.. I hope they really dont wonder why no one gives a dam..
