@ HotDog:

Hey, I used to think that the camera on the E71 absolutely blew as well, until I realized that the camera does not auto-focus.

In order to focus the camera and get rid of all the blurryness, press and hold the letter "T" button on the keyboard. Since this discovery, the camera takes much better pictures! Ofcourse, it is still not at good as some of the multimedia phones out there, but it certainly improves it substantially.

Hope this trick helps you, since I've met a lot of people that didn't know about it.

Also, pardon my ignorance, but what is the use for a physical compass? The new Ovi Maps application has a digital compass built in, based on your GPS coordinates.
For what it's worth, I chuckled. +1
LoL. Because the expensive choice is ALWAYS the best choice!

I've often found that people who actually have half the class that you claim you do, tend to also keep their mouth shut.They already know that they don't have to prove anything (especially in an online battle of wits, nonetheless), and they take solace in the fact that they are happy with themselves.

So congratulations on the three degrees and making yourself out to be a steaming pile of crap. =)
Hey Pickle,

I know it's probably a little too late, but for what it's worth, I voted you up!

I agree, the engine noise from the GT-R sounded completely muffled in that video, the V8 on the ZR1 just sounds menacing. And I don't know about you, but my morning drives to work are pretty boring because I am on a fairly secluded, straight road, but I still try and make it an interesting drive. If I didn't, I don't think I'd be able to keep awake, especially since I am not a morning person.

I've heard the GT-R in person a few times while at the dealership getting my Nissan's oil changed. It does sound a lot better in person. But it still has a very foreign tone. As much as I love German, Japanese or Italian cars, nothing compares to the rumblings of an American V8. Frankly, one of the only European cars that I think has an amazing sound would be the Aston Martin DBS. But that's just me.
OH man, that comment is pure gold! LoL.
Maybe you need to get a quad-band phone? You cannot blame all reception problems on the provider. I live in Canada and am on the Rogers network and had crap for reception for a really long time because most of the phones Rogers carried were tri-band. About 3 years ago, I bought my first quad-band phone and my reception has been immaculate no matter where I go.

It's sadly the case where most carriers provide A LOT of tri-band phones but not enough quad-bands.

It used to be that my reception was utter garbage at work, now I get 4 bars! If you have bad reception, get a handset with the 850MHz frequency. The short wavelength will allow more signal to travel through dense areas and buildings.

Now, I make sure that all my phones are quad-band, from my Samsungs of yesteryear, to my current Nokia 3120c 3G to my Nokia E71 that is currently in shipping and on its way! =)
Sorry, I should have clarified. From my understanding, the newer R Series either don't have the roll cage all together, or in specific models, they only have the bottom portion and lack the roll cage for the LCD.

The T Series have the full roll cage regardless of model.
T400 is the series name. Not designated to a specific model with specific hardware. There have been several T400 models throughout the years.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"
