Wow!
I think with those atractives nobody will refuse to go Amsterdam! (Never been there)
An oh..of course that was the creation place, so now number 2 on the list:
2. When?
When? That my friend we don't know...
Hello all,
I am in the hospitality business and organise events for a number of blue chips – in short my company is the best in the business.
I get good rates on hotels, restaurants and have excellent connections for all things conference throughout Europe. So if Italy, Spain, Portugal, South Africa, Uk or Ireland is a possible venue for the proposed event, I will be happy to get involved. I am a big fan of XDA.
Work is on going on our website just now so I am aware that a number of pages need updating... its in the hands of the HTML engineer... link in my signature if ya wanna have a look at what we do.
Best,
J
This would be pretty cool however i've never seen it work out in any other forum. I think the best thing to do would be to create a poll and see where most people are located. Say there's a bundle in California, then we could have one in LA or some place close to all Californians. Same thing for other states, countries, even cities, etc. We could then all share our experiences. As for me, i'm in Southern California, hence the reason i used it
More or less this event might take place in the US or somewhere in Europe...only few asian are here...
It is a nice idea. Make it a convention and invite some guest speakers to show off the future of mobile devices, have reps from HTC and others perhaps like Sony, Motorola, Nokia, Jabra, etc... showing off newest gadgets and gear - Workshop seminars and stuff like that. It could be a fun time to meet some of our members in person, talk, show off our devices and envy the other person's device and a good learning opportunity as well.

it won't be an eyeball anymore. It will look like a convention, a meeting, etc. And that will be boring because everyone should be formal. Just an "ORDINARY' but "GRANDacious" eyeball.. exclusively fro XDA-DEV members and if you like we can invite M$ as our guest speaker..LOL
Just a regular GRAND EYEBALL, just to meet each and everyone here at XDA-DEV. No paper works, no signing up just beer and phones and girls too...

Agree with the poll
Starting form there we can see how many would like to attend and where most people is located
But I must say that I agree with Daveshaw that the best place should be where all this started: Amsterdam!
So who is going to create the poll?
Yeah, Amsterdam would be great! And there will be raffle promos and HTC Devices giveaways courtesy of all xda-dev's moderators and admins... Come one let's make this happen.
Great poll!
LOL
Last option looks pretty cool!
hehehe if that last option wins...you got to pay my expenses going to your place!

just a cent from a newbee, i hope this great idea will happen sooner...
i agree however that safety, next of course to resources, is definitely the issue needed to be considered by anyone else. but who's safe nowadays? i dont think there's a better place than our own abode (just be sure our better half is out.. lol)..
a little clarification though about Philippines vis a vis Abu Sayaff (ASG). ASG concentrates mostly in northern part of Mindanao and now being relentlessly pursued. on the otherhand, there are great places in the Philippines particularly in Luzon & Visayas, although as i've said cant be considered safer that our homes. But on the brighter side, your 1$ to Php47.++ is quite noteworthy of consideration.... more than double the fun i guess
Btw, considering the "safety" issue as quoted, i voted for the last option (peace orb...)
cheers...

So has anyone started to collect those android Viynl collections?
I'm starting right now but I've only bought some of series 2. I can't link here yet since I'm new but the site is
deadzebra dot com/dyzplastics
Just wondering if anyone else is collecting it! ^_^And maybe we can start trades for people who need a specific one because apparently there are a lot of knockoffs nowadays.
I've got an original green collectible I'd love to get some more but i can only find them for sale from the US and it costs too much ££
Hey Dirk,
I think there are UK sites that have it as well. The company that makes it is called dyzplastics under deadzebra.com. I've linked you to a sales site that has it.

Nice to see some UK outlets listed! Sadly the only figurine available is the one i already have
Thanks for the linkage mate, i'll be keeping a watchful eye for potential additions to my collection.
Oh, Well, Series 2 JUST came out. I think they might restock later. . . .
If you keep an eye on the Android Community website you'll often see some of the rarer ones being displayed. HERE is what you want to see. Aren't they adorable?
What makes XDA the forum that you want to participate in? There are plenty of other forums out there, and if you are like me you are subscribed to many of them, but I always come back to XDA.
With that in mind, I was hoping to get some feedback from everyone telling me why XDA is their go-to site for their devices...
*Is it available development?
*Format?
*Theme?
*Moderators?
*Rules?
*Number of people who reply to your thread/post?
*XDA TV?
*Sheer number of available site options?
Take a minute and let me know why you are an XDA-dian.

The sheer Work Force is the amount of talented minds brought together over a quality forum medium is insane. who could ask for more? every day developers and thinkers put together idea's to bring users high quality end product and ask very little in return.
The Off Topic section provides allot of controversial topics, as well as allot of not so controversial topics. XDA's own /b/ so to say
"we have enforcement however that close any incendiary or malignant threads"
XDA has grown to be a large scale online behemoth of it's own, it's not just about the phones or apps.
Think about it.
This community became really famous in the Internet and daily there are new users from everywhere in the world, looking solutions to their SmarthPhones, others giving solutions to problems, others just read the threads without commenting and there are many others kinds of users around here .. But, where are they from? Are the majority American? Or Europeans? Probably from the South? Let figure it out!
I am from South America, i live in Argentina, where are you from?
Don't forget to answer to the Poll!
Borned and raised in GREECE, moved to the USA when I was 16 and I have been living here ever since.

Great! Those countries are two of the places i'd like to visit some day.
People already say where they're from in their profile (if they wish) and that then accompanies every post they make.
Also please refrain from making profanities as options in polls in future.
