Look at this new android Phone!

Woah! this is super cool. Would You get it?
http://www.itechdiary.com/samsung-i...-super-amoled-display-and-pico-projector.html

that's ugly, anything that looks like an iphone is bad looking lol

It don't look anything like an iPhone, it looks like a typical Samsung.

Specs might be nice and I'm intrigued by the projector but that is one ugly phone and its made by Samsung, I wouldn't be interested in owning one.

Horrible!
I´ll stay with HTC!!!

knowing samsung, the build quality will be shocking.
But I do like the idea of having a projector on a phone, as long as the output is decent quality. Beats having to look at a screen to watch a movie! Specs are nice though.... but it is going to be so wide, surley. Imagine dropping it as well...

the kids with the TI-89's gave me hell when I was rocking the superior HP-49g in college. Little did they know that my calculator could, quite literally, divide by zero. Symbolically of course but it would do it. The 4Mhz O/C'd saturn processor for the win!

Who ever can get one of the new laser based pico projectors from AAXA or Microvision into a smartphone without killing battery life will get my money... hopefully by that time I'll either have saved up enough pennies or the cost of the lasers will have come down

Motorola tablet ad, I just don't get it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=quI2I8wLPdc
Is there anyone else that just doesn't get it?
So iPad is just a large iPhone, highly original motorola
But what abouut Moto's tablet? If the iPad is mocked as being a large version of the phone ccounterpart, then isn't this tablet just a larger Droid X? ...but without the phone (that's similar to the iPad!).

I think it's a well good advert! Kinda funny too

Yeah I thought the first bit was quite funny, but as soon as they said the iPad was a giant iPhone I just cringed.

Well, I was planning to get the ten commandments tablet for reading e-books, but my pastor advised against it. He said that the bible is much longer and ten verses ain't gonna get me to heaven, despite what Moses said on his blog.
So I guessed I would get the Hieroglyphic tablet but I hate to learn another new programming language just to use it. Learning Java was bad enough but I've never heard about Egyptian. Good news is that it seems to be OOPL from the depiction of eagles and sun though...
Now, should I be getting that Rosetta stone for Christmas? Where do they have it in stock? I'm intrigued by its multi-lingual capabilities. With XDA's help we could really turn it into a Hitchhiker's Guide to Tablets, don't you think? But it might be hard to carve "Don't Panic" onto it, I think...
So, any suggestions guys?

Some opinions?

What are your opinions on a laptop/computer? It won't be long before I'm looking into getting one. I definitely want something pretty powerful that can handle things like extensive video editing and HD capability. I will be using it for school as well so probably a laptop. I think a MacBook pro would be nice but I'm really REALLY anti-apple. I think its a nice computer but I don't like the cliche thing. I always just see people walking around with iPhones and I know how much better my android device is and just laugh in my head at how ignorant these people are but how about a MacBook pro? Or any other suggestions? I don't know a whole lot about computers so anything is appreciated, thanks.

Don't go for Alienware unless it is the 11" one. The others are REALLY huge and heavy. They are meant for desktop replacements instead. Settle on a budget first, because laptops are highly commoditized.

I think he has more than that (he was thinking about buying a mac )

Haha well I don't have that much at the moment, but I really am just in a state of confusion. I'm really leaning to the MacBook and am looking to probably just make a partition for windows 7 ultimate in case, so that way I have the best of both worlds. I mean the hardware is really nice on the Mac and I hear apple customer service is great. I am torn between the dual core and the quad core though and I'd like to hear what you all think. The dual core is clicked at a higher speed but the quad core has a designated video/graphics card what should I go for?

I don't see a point to all the fuss, especially at that price. Apparently hardly any programs can even utilize that resolution so it scales it down anyways. If you're a video/photo editor then I can easily see the benefit. But for so many others who just use it for facebook and MS word, what's the point?

Not even so much video editing, unless you're working with 2k or 4k resolution. And if you were, you'd know right away, when the computer can't do anything in real time.

Besides the ridiculous pricing and the lack of programs supporting the screen's ability, I refuse to support Apple so long as their business practices include the inane lawsuit wars that they have been waging. I really don't care about the eliteist toolbags who use them sometimes because we have PC/Android/etc users who are the same, but I won't give a one cent to a company who conducts business like Apple does.

I still want this thing, and it didn't help that i checked out The Verge's review.

I read their review, on the machine itself, then took the pictures. The review doesn't really show how good the display is in real life. I really, really want to dual boot ML and W8 on it and turn it into a HDTV, along with finding an external Blu-Ray drive for it.
It's shocking how far ahead they are in build quality against the PC manufacturers.

Exactly. I want to dual/trippel boot OSX/Win7/W8. I'm not a gamer but it's also nice to know that it'll run most games just fine.

Not a good idea. The retina display means nothing but trouble with regards to Windows. Windows doesnt do well with really high resolutions. Don't expect any gaming at all either. The 650m isn't a terrible card, but if you put it under much stress, expect a lot of overheating. That chassis is just way to small to deliever adequate cooling.
Tldr: If you want windows, buy a native windows machine this time around.

I was just having a little look on an iForum

Not trolling or otherwise causing trouble, I'm not even regged on it.
It appears that quite a lot of iPeople were wishing that they had a gesture typing keyboard.
But the apple ecosystem, with its far superior apps has the answer!

Quality apps man, think I might switch to Apple now.
You actually need to type into an app like notepad on a Windows PC, then copy and paste your gesture typed text into where you wanted it.
I wonder why there isn't a decent swype keyboard on iOS? I suppose apple themselves are maybe too scared to implement it into their OS because they won't want people to think they are copying android. Mind you - notifications anyone....
Wonder why there isn't a 3rd party one though...?
Edit: just noticed the thread was from Nov lol, but there's a new one. Watch the video and get a laugh...

Apple will probably incorporate a gesture keyboard into a future iOS revision, call it "the best gesture keyboard invented ever" and then sue Google/Samsung/Swype for violating Apple patents.

Apple has always been the same. Their computers were the same...a couple variants...minor changes from year to year. And no one else can use their os. Well...hardly anyone uses their PC's as a result. They managed to make one good phone...and year after year make very slight changes. Ipad now too.
But thanks to the phones and ipads they make money. Cause the tech unsavvy go with the flow.
But they gotta be the least innovative company on earth. Slowly people are seeing this and slowly apple will die off...unless they make serious changes to their ideals.
Rim is becoming, or became, similar.
Android as things are today will take over the mobile world in time.
Again.....unless apple and even rim change their tunes.

................Apple suck
:victory::victory::victory::victory:

Completely agree, with your two word post People say 'apple just works'.
The fact is, now android can be simple, and 'just works' if thats what you want it to do, but the possibilities are there to do whatever the hell you like to your device, as they should be when you've just paid a large amount of money for it.
You can leave it standard and simple (does anyone?), or mod it to within an inch of its life. I do understand though that there is a market for technically unsavvy fashionistas who think that the latest iDevice elevates them somehow into a superior being. Sad really. My experience. My opinion. Based on people I know personally. Not all of the iPhone owners I know, some are just ignorant lol
All locked down is just boring, jailbreaking your iPhone makes it run slower lol, and you still can't do whatever you like with it.
Android is, and has always been the way forward to me. Nothing to do with blind brand loyalty. I didn't mean to make this an Apple hate thread or anything.
Do not even get me started on the way that apple go about conducting their 'business'. It should be criminal.
I once owned an iPod for about a month. Then I was enraged with iTunes. I then bought an iRiver HP120. Man, let me tell you that the sheer sound quality of that thing with good 'phones made hairs stand up on the back of my neck every time I used it. Drag and drop heaven too.
I never bought an Apple device again, and unless they change their ways something silly, never would again. But even then, the way in which they conduct business has put me off for life.
Don't tell me that's fanboyism.
