Whatever's wrong with my phone has something to do with the flip part of it. I move it at all, and it turns itself off and one again. From looking around, the nexus one looks perfect, but verizon is being a pain about releasing it. Next on the list would be the droid, which has some pretty sweet deals right now. Decisions, decisions, decisions.
The HTC incredible is coming soon too! 1gig snapdragon processor (same as nexus) which is scaled back to 768. Android 2.1 installed too. (Droid is still on 2.0.1 but i'm rooted with 2.1) Also has an 8 meg camera. Rumored to be released in April, or as late as May.
Nexus is also made by HTC.
OMG just saw this on POTR

I've rooted my Droid and have it overclocked from 550 mhz to 1250 mhz. Nice and fast now!

63 degrees today! GT is nice and shiny again, but the paint feels like sand paper, and there's some pretty big chips on the hood that I noticed.

Use a clay bar on it, that'll make it slick as a sheet of glass. Or as my metal fab teacher used to say slicker than greased owl sh**

What do you mean by rooted and overclocked? I don't understand much of the deep technical talk. I heard about the incredible. Also supposed to have 720p recording. I can't wait that long though. My phone is about gone, and I need something really soon, so I may end up with the droid. I was looking on youtube for videos from the nexus and the droid, and the droid had way better sound quality. Something I'd like. Do you know when the droid is supposed to get updated to the 2.1? How does that work? Do you have to pay extra for it or does it just automatically come?

The Droid does have excellent sound quality. Speaker on it is loud too, so when you play Slacker radio or Pandora, you can actually hear it!
2.1 was supposed to be out in January. I don't know why it was delayed, but I know i'm running a mosified copy of what we were supposed to get.
Overall, nice phone, excellent screen, decent video, lousy camera and keyboard.

Rooted means you gain root acccess to the phone instead of being locked out of it and limited to what they want you to do. Overclocked is like overclocking your computer. You make the processor run faster than what it's rated for. Since you not the techno type, I doubt you would do these things. Plus it voids your warranty.

Quite a day we had here. At 6:30 this morning we got a phone call, my 86 y/o grandmothers basement flooded. She had a 50+ y/o pedestal pump that quit on her so I went over and installed a new 1/2 hp submerged pump. Now it flows twice the water and wont overheat cuz it covered in the well.
I was there doing that all day left there around 1pm and then just got back home again after it started raining hard again. She had more water coming up through the floor. She lives in a 100+ y/o house with a flagstone foundation. She really needs to move out but is just too stubborn and refuses to listen to family. So not much we can do but help her when she need it.
Oh well very long day and it's not supposed to stop here until late tomorrow I just hope I don't have to drive back over it's 45 min away on all back country roads the like to flood.
On a positive note I went to the Word of Wheels show in Boston. The show was pretty much all rice as it usually is. I haven't been in quite a few years because of that but figured I would give it a shot again.
The cool thing was, they had 5 front engine dragsters there. 3 of Don Garlits's Swamp Rats, Connie Kalitta's Bounty Hunter & 1 of Don Prudhomme's. I figured I would share the pics I took with my BB.
I love these cars, I wish I had been around in there hay day and gotten to see them match race across the country.
BTW The tinted lights for the Mustang are still sitting here, with the rain all weekend and no room in the garage to put the car I have not gotten them Installed. I hope I will have time next weekend to do it.

Our home is not a house, not a get rich (or not) vehicle - its a lifestyle, a safe haven, a family (even after kids grow up), a living memory of all we hold dear, our only private world in a too busy and over populated civilization, a living breathing thing that is a part of us and we are a part of, our own personal museum, and a life experience that is alive and well. Sadly, no one will cherish it like we do.
To move her puts her square in the reality that she's entering her last phase, and that probably the next strange place she's moved to that isn't her beloved home, will be a nursing home and facing her final days. uckafa that!
Any house can be fixed or rebuilt correctly and up to standard so it lasts (and provide a reasonable return over the long haul) and saves you from repeated duct tape & bailin' wire repairs eow.
Thanx for helping her. Good job! But for the full picture & understanding, walk awhile in her shoes, look thru her eyes. You'll know what to do. And how to develop even more patience & perserverence than you have now.
(Lord knows your days [like all of ours] are zoomin' by and you'll be there sooner than you think!)

Was watching the Jeremy Clarkson one again. It was in the suggestions on the side.

You'll also need a gmail email address, so have that ready too. The will need it to set up your phone. Your calendar, phone book, and market purchases all get synced/stored with the email address.
