Seriously debating..

Guys.. I'm seriously debating selling my streak 7. They are sending me a brand new one since mine got messed up. not a refirb but a brand new retail package so I'm thinking instead of using it putting it up on craigs list for sale and thinking about getting the xoom or just waiting untill the new samsung galaxy 8.9 comes out...

A lot of disappointed guys here! Patience, is a virtue! Ja

Well I headed another direction. I am more and more in love with this device. Especially after seeing a lot of new devices in the market , their specs, their price, their reviews. I think this device is fine and getting better.
Stick around. =)

But I will buy one wifi-only device to pair with this.
For example: Ipad2 wifi only is 499, their wifi+3G is 629 (130 USD higher).
DS7 is 200USD.
So if you buy a ipad 2 wifi + DS 7 , you are paying 70 USD more comparing buying an ipad 2 wifi+3G directly.
But,
what you got is HSPA network
A full functional device + powerful android exposure
better camera (comparing only applicable to ipad 2 only)
"portable" 4G access point.
7inch for your mobile needs etc etc

im putting my brand new streak on craigslist due to the fact that this dell streak 7 thread is filled so many noobs that dont know how xda is run then get mad and run to mods crying foul when i put then in there place , every time a new device comes out we get a whole new crowd of new people that dont like to listen and just post wanting what they want so if this post gets me banned i am sorry but it will be a cold day in xda hell before i get talked down to by someone who just learned what adb is so to those or that one person who did go and cry hey even the mod said it wasnt worth contacting him but for me to relax ...lol i dont know how to relax...."as i hit this blunt" damn l.a weed

I was really close to selling mine and getting the viewsonic gtablet, but then I realized that the gtablet doesn't have Gps and that's the only reason I got the ds7 was because of built-in GPS and would work well in the car.

I bought my DS7 like every other XDA regular knowing full and well what "Downsides" it has, we all however felt the potential for what it CAN do once the community puts out the custom work on it. I mean we have the 4G model that works with ATT 3G (Which THAT alone is win if this Merger happens... no other tablet has this yet, so least WE dont need to replace), Tegra 2 is the future atm for the devices. So we are set for PS Suite, Netflix and other quality 3d games Android shouldve had awhile ago to compete against iOS games.
It runs smooth, handles well, has a strong promise in the future, plus Dell isnt that bad. They didnt hardlock us out of rooting. =p *Pats Dell's Head*
While things are slow. Least now that we have the ability to flash, things can only go up. =) With Honeycomb coming, we will really be set! Also T-Mobile moving to 21Mbit (Which atm is in Vegas and NY) we will have a good speed too worthy of a Tablet.
Xoom maybe nice, no lie, but I dont need that. =)

Have you guys seen this? http://www.oeebay.com/goods.php?id=801 Im not sure if this is scam.

[POLL] Is the Nexus 7 one of the most of the anxious devices you have purchased?

Is the Nexus 7 one of the most of the anxious devices you have purchased?
Is the Nexus 7 one of the most of the anxious devices you have purchased?
For me, yes

I answered yes but mostly because it's the first thing I've ever pre-ordered, which instantly makes it the longest I've ever had to wait to receive a shiny new toy.

Second most anxious device (after Nexus One).

I dunno, but when I get mine I'll ask it.

As anxious as when I first got my iPad 1
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Don't know. Google hasn't specified it's anxiousness so hard to say . I am anxious about receiving it though

I hope it isn't too anxious because I have no idea how I would safely administer Valium to it. I'm fairly happy to be getting it though.

More anxious than when I was going to get my iPad

first real android tablet!! waiting is killing me!

I don't pre-order stuff because I'm very impatient, this is the first time I've pre ordered anything and the wait it is killing me.

I specified that I wanted one that was already on Xanax.

I am always anxious to get ANY new device

Dunno if anything will ever exceed the happiness of me getting my first USR 28K Sportster modem as a kid. Partly because it was the most expensive thing I ever bought with my paper route money.

I'm a early adopter and love my gadgets. Maybe the original Palm Pilot had the most anticipation for me followed by my first iPhone.
I was telling my wife last night about reading on Compuserve that the Palm Pilot was in stores, calling Circuit City and begging the guy to hold one for me for and hour. I called my boss and told him I had a personal emergency and went to get my Pilot.
I won't need to call off work to get my Nexus, I work at GameStop.

I'm pretty excited but a new toy is always exciting

Ever preorder thread has been like this. The tf101 preorder thread was intense, for example.

I am pretty excited about this tablet. I got an HP touchpad last year and loved it, especially after I got cm 7 on it then cm 9. When I got my girl the kindle fire I fell in love with the size of it and the price of it but not really the specs. The nexus 7 will be perfect for me.

Who else bought the 7 for the wife......

and the wife actually LOVES it My wife gets annoyed with my geeky approach to devices, including rooting, etc. I bought a N7 for myself to use for work and she was eyeing it a little, so I got the last one from Office Max for her birthday. I was nervous about her reaction, but she LOVES it. My devious plan to get her to give up her iPhone 4S at some point is slowly taking shape :angel:

She inherited the old nook color. But I would totally buy her one if she wanted it.

My GF has an iPad 2 along with an iPod Touch... so there's really no hope for her. I did, however, buy a Nexus 7 for my parents and they like it a lot. I've simplified the screens to the bare-bones of what they'll be using it for... maps, translators, etc for traveling, game folders, eReader folders for Mom, sports links for Dad, etc...
Then, I went and bought one for myself, too.

My GF fell in love with the Nexus 7 after using mine, so I gave it to her... Then bought another one for myself. :angel:

Sold off my A500 and my wife's archos 101 and iPhone 3g and used the money towards 2 nexus 7's!
She loves the thing and is enjoying movies more than anything on it!

I have never had a tablet before, and my girlfriend has had the Kindle fire since Christmas 2011.. I didn't want to buy one for myself and leave her hanging with her Kindle, so I told her that I would buy her a N7 if she gave me her Kindle fire (to sell and pay the difference). She loves it. I do, however, feel bad when I take a look at her device and see it all bogged down with tons of random apps such as "cake maker"

Picking my wife one up soon as well.

My wife is...unfortunately...possessed by the Cult. I'm stunned she hasn't pushed for an iPhone 4S yet and continues to use the Epic 4G.
Since she is hot and smart (except in tech) I'll keep her. LOL

My wife lasted about 3 days after seeing mine.... selling her Kindle Fire to get a Nexus 7. Most likely going with the 8GB, she does primarily online stuff, not much storage.

i bought my own. men are too needy. and want to play with my tech toys. but most of my friends would love this over a smart phone for most device's.

QFT.
My girl is very smart, built her own killer gaming PC, and can converse intelligently on about any subject. It's baffling how she fell for the iCult. I just smile, say nice things about the screen, and inwardly chuckle when she can't tether off her phone, plug in external storage, or do so many of the things we Android folk take for granted. I might just give her a Nexus 7 and see if that lures her away from the Dark Side of the Saint Steve Devoted.
To be fair, her first experience with an Android tablet was a Xoom running 3.0 ...and we all know how laggy and clunky that was.

I quickly got tired of sharing mine with the family so my girlfriend and six year old daughter now share one. It is mostly used to play minecraft by the six year old at the moment.

Not the wife...
Talked grandma into an 8GB N7, due to her Coby Android tablet having a resistive touchscreen and generally a lagfest.
Then after setting up her apps and homescreen on the new N7, I decided I needed a 16GB.

The wife normally gets the hand-me-downs (which are usually brand freakin' new devices lol) but this is my first tablet. I hid it from her for a few days because married men know what it's like to get scolded for buying new toys. But instead, she loved it and proclaimed that she wants one!
I'm so proud of my wife!! I always flash CM nightlies for her and she advocates Android and CM to anyone who mentioned anything about smart phones. She's converted a few Apple fans over to the Android platform too. I'm excited to get her a N7!

Nexus 7. Thought I was going to hate it.

After coming the new Asus Infinity tablet, and after returning/exchanging my 4th one caused by QC issues, feeling bitter, I thought I'd never (At least until QC is fixed) purchase another Asus tablet again.
Opportunity struck when I was bored and tablet-less, to purchase the Nexus 7 that was on hold from a friend with my name on it. Supposedly I purchased the last Nexus 7 within a 170Mi radius of local stores relative to me, remarked a District Manager of the store.
A shot in the dark, yes, after being through hell with the Infinity.
I absolutely pre-judged this devices 7inch screen, lack of rear camera, lack of ports, etc to justify buying Asus' Flagship latest Transformer tab.
I cant seem to put this damn thing down, I use it constantly, the form-factor is a perfect size and weight, the back feels great to hold. No issues with QC (yet), not a single dead or hot pixel, no screen raising or separation, no creaking or squeaking, this unit feels solid. FYI: My unit is from the 'C8 Serial Number' series.
The biggest issue I have yet are from the bystanders who approach me wherever I seem to go and ask me about my 'iPad Mini' or how did I get an 'iPad Mini'.
Within a 40 minute coffee shop sitting, 7 people approached me asking if it was an 'iPad' mini. I spent twice as long explaining them it's not an iPad Mini, its a Nexus 7, it runs Android OS, etc. Then bombarded by their questioning on why I didn't wait for the iPad Mini and ridiculed as to why I didn't have an iPad yet.
This is my first 'real' Android device, let alone tablet (not counting the Infinity which never left my house, except for the BestBuy exchanges).
I've learned that the confusion of the Nexus 7 for an iOS/Apple is inevitable.
So I raced home and came up with an easy solution... attached are photos.
Yes it's actually easier going with their beliefs of it being an iPad Mini then quickly hiding the device in my bag and watch them try and snap photos from across the room. It also gives me an excuse to quick-pitch the curious that 'they never saw this', and 'we never and cannot talk' which usually does the trick.
A fun game I am enjoying as I await my case to arrive...:laugh:
Cheers to all the newfound friends and support on here. I'm blessed.

It's doubly funny because it trolls the Apple zombies and a offends the Android fanboys.

Really, Apple fanboys laughing at you... I think the joke is actually on them...
I love my Nexus7. I bought our first one for the missus - I had a Asus Transformer 10in Android tablet/netbook, but I have since sold that and bought a second Nexus 7 just for me (I could never get on the first one). Both are perfect and both are used CONSTANTLY.
7in tablet is perfect for me, and the spec and price of the Nexus7 are perfect two. I can buy "his and hers" Nexus7 for the price of a single iPad. So who is REALLY the fool?

Backpage Deal For a Note II

Well, I hate to be posting this in a topic I have no idea if it will fit here. But I am looking for answers before i take a dive. I've been emailing this dude on Backpage and have been thinking about going through with a deal for a T-Mobile Note 2 for 350. Which honest to god seems too good to be true.I went on there because I heard that you have to pay for a membership to get in and I figured, why would this guy have a membership and be able to legally scam people if he wasn't legit? He's also telling me to go through Google Checkout and that there will be an email that i have to reply to that says that my payment will be secure and insured. (Obviously, I've never used it before.) Ships from Romania and after I get the package I have 30 days to return it to get my money back.
My question is, Should I go for it? I really need a new phone since my SGS II is having trouble holding a charge and my wife is giving me the ok to go ahead and do it, but honestly, seems too good to be true. He says he has friends in the factory and a contract with UPS to get cheap shipping. :x Help me out guys?

In all honesty, Don't take the deal? Says I have before the 15th.

A lot of people do that, if you google these kinda deals, you will find that a lot is a scam, they offer low prices cause they buy in bulk, but in the end either you will get a empty box or a china version of the same phone

Not necessarily I brought a nexus one off amazon as a temporary device for only 100$ and turned or fine
