Any phone with location services turned on it doing that. Which means pretty much every smart phone.

Every year before the season starts they have the best team, they deserve to win the Cup, then when they don't win the Cup, they should have won the Cup, and officiating and bad luck were responsible for it. Just ask Canucks fans who the fastest, toughest, most talented team is year in and year out. Last year the Hawks were just a bunch of slow goons who miraculously beat them.

DROSE is going to work at that and also his post up game in the offseason.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 20, 2011 -> 12:28 PM) I have Sprint and pay 79.99 for 450 minutes and unlimited data and text. I never come remotely close to going over my minutes since it's free mobile to mobile (any carrier) and free nights and weekends. Wow. I pay 190 a month for unlimited with ATT. I may actually do some research on this today. My companies have all picked up the bill for about the last 10 years, but now they only give me a certain amount a month and 100 bucks sounds damn good.

Anyone have Sprint? Is the unlimited plan really only 100 bucks a month?

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 20, 2011 -> 12:18 PM) I've had to consciously make an effort to not use the phone much when I'm with my wife. It's hard but I've come a long way. I think everyone should. I literally saw maybe 10 couples at crossroads and every one of them was individually looking at their phones. It looked ridiculous. It did give me a great app idea though, now I just need someone who can write code.....

still looking at that android thread, there are alot of great ass pics in there for home screens.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 20, 2011 -> 12:13 PM) I'm on the train all of the time so I use mine way more than I probably should. See, I'm on my ipad most of the time if I am sitting somewhere. My phone is just there for calls and texts and the occasional read on the internet. To be honest, I am making a conscious effort to try and look at my phone less, especially after I went into a bar the other day and literally saw everyone staring down at their phones instead of talking and I realized how ridiculous it is. I may downgrade to pager/pay phone.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 20, 2011 -> 12:12 PM) If I were choosing right now I'd go with the Thunderbolt. It's a better version of the EVO and LTE is faster than Wimax. Is it any smaller than the EVO?

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 20, 2011 -> 12:12 PM) The difference is the EVO is 4g while the iPhone isn't. That's a gigantic difference. You'd be stupid to settle for anything less, no offense. Call and texts still come in the same way as always. Pandora still streams fine. Thats about it for me. I have an ipad to watch tv and whatnot.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 20, 2011 -> 12:10 PM) Oh come on. Did you see the duck hunt one? I have one that's a zombie game. It looks fantastic in person. I dont pay enough attention to my phone just sitting there for it to be of use. I'm sure some people find it to be awesome.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 20, 2011 -> 12:03 PM) Animated wallpaper. Scroll through a few pages of this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread...30&page=710 Animated wallpaper is useless but there are some great customized home screens in that thread. There is probably some value for some people to having the only version of something on their phone to be different and I can respect that. It still comes down to the hardware being able to function as an ipod as well as with ipod docks and car connectors that will keep me from moving over, but I can see some value in the customization.

Yes, you move all of them to the second screen. That actually looks alot like the screen of my old blackberry curve. Weather, calendar etc.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 20, 2011 -> 11:59 AM) Can you use live wallpapers on every phone too? I honestly have no idea what that is and it sounds pretty strange. Will my block O be dancing around in the background? I have yet to see a customized android phone that blows me out of the water with its tweaks. Folders, backgrounds, etc arent really that different than what every phone can do.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 20, 2011 -> 11:53 AM) You've never wanted to change your phone background (wallpaper)? You can do that on every smartphone though. Even on flip phones. Whats the big deal?

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 20, 2011 -> 11:42 AM) The Mariners. Legalized marijuana. Seriously though, what other team in professional sports has a statue of a coach complaining about officiating?

All I ask for is if the team starts winning that you continue to call for KW's head since you are basing it on several years of play. If they rattle off a winning streak, you should still be posting these threads.

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Apr 19, 2011 -> 07:29 PM) EVO > iPhone. It honestly depends on if you want and can handle customization. Both you can pick up and use rather easily. iPhone doesn't allow for much customization. The Evo, if you have time to read up a bit on it, can do many many more things. Evo is powerful as it is. If you ever decide to mod, which I took the advice of one of the members here, you'll have by far the most powerful phone you've ever used. Depends on what you want. Androids in general are going to be better than iphones at customization. How many people actually need that is the question. Also, I've seen many customized android devices begin to freeze and show tons of glitches after prolonged use. Its almost a windows vs Mac thing.

Less than 3 weeks into the season. If this is a theme going longer than a few weeks, then yes panic.

QUOTE (Felix @ Apr 19, 2011 -> 10:14 PM) It's been this way all season and is only getting worse. Blah blah blah, I hate Bulls fans.

QUOTE (chimpy2121 @ Apr 19, 2011 -> 10:01 PM) Can't f***ing stand the Canucks and their fans. How funny that Bieksa takes on Stalberg once Scott is out of the game. Also, how the hell is that not an instigator penalty? Win game 5 and Luongo might shart himself having to play under pressure back at the UC. Worst fans in hockey. You would think an expansion team with no Cup wins would be a little less irritating. And BTW, the Hawks didnt actually beat them last night, the refs did. The refs missed almost 50 calls against the Hawks in case you were wondering. http://forum.canucks.com/forum/24-canucks-talk/

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 19, 2011 -> 09:05 PM) Scioscia does a great job handling his bullpen. I was so impressed by his proactivity in pulling his lefty reliever prior to facing Pierre on Sunday. Agreed. He's one guy you would always want over what you currently have in the managers chair, but he's going nowhere unfortunately.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Apr 19, 2011 -> 09:06 PM) Ah, I get it. If I don't spend the time to give you some specific examples of moves made by other managers that led to winning the game, it's impossible to criticize Ozzie for making the same bad decisions over and over and over and over again. Tell me more about giving up outs via the sac bunt and how awesome it is at producing runs. How hard is it to give a name of a manager? I'm asking you an honest question since you said there are brilliant managers who make strategic moves that win games. Fathom gave one two seconds ago. I don't think it's that hard of a concept.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Apr 19, 2011 -> 09:02 PM) read the thread, ozzie's a genius for 2005! he knows so much about baseball! No, I'm asking you not the thread. What team and what manager makes those moves that wins games. You said it's out there, I just want to know who I should be thinking about.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 19, 2011 -> 08:57 PM) I never said Beckham was a failure. But all things aren't equal. Yeah, I know the hype that was bestowed upon Alex. Same as Beckham. I'm looking more and skillset in this case. I, for one, never questioned Alex's skillset. Beckham? I kinda do. Their numbers are identical and Alex has 2 more years of experience at the MLB level and is 2 years older.
