yes, i've griefed folks over getting keyboards for their tablets in the past. i apologize.
i love the thing. i'm not always going to use it, but whenever i head somewhere to do "real work," it's going with me.

The Zune failed because it was so late to the party, that the party was over by the time they arrived. Had MS released the zune about 2 or 3 years sooner it would've been a lot more successful.

looks like 10" with what, 7" usable? too much wasted real estate. typical android fail.
chris, i don't even know what that means. while market share may be dwindling, total market is outpacing.

Installing on the desktop right now. Let you know...but mostly it was just an excuse to move from vista to 8 for 40 bucks.

been meaning to install it for a while.
i bought a new ssd so ill throw it on that when i get a chance
Just ordered a kindle fire HD for dad's birthday. He already had a first gen kindle, and I think he has been liking using mom's toshiba thrive some, so this might be a good compromise tablet for that. He may still use the OG kindle for reading, but for browsing the interwebs and such, I'm trying to ween them off the shitty desktop that they have been using for years.

SO...windows 8 for two days...
Remember I'm moving from Vista but...it actually is starting to make sense. I "knew" I was going to hate Metro, but it's not so bad. Considering 90% of computer users just use them as facebook machines, having a central "information hub" makes a kind of sense. I'm still getting used to searching for my desktop applications, and the 8 upgrade borked my Office Pro install, so I'm going to have to dig up the discs and my old MSDN key...even though the "compatibility check tool" said I wouldn't have to.
In general, though, I think this is actually a really decent OS. I find all my objections are more that it's not the way I've been doing it for almost 20 years rather than an actual *problem*.

Guess that is why? We may be switching away from Verizon anyway depending on who buys onto the tower that got built close to my parents house.

This didn't really surprise me at all. For a GSM/HSPA+ phone, then can sell that world wide. For an LTE, not only are they limited to either the US or the highly competitive SoKo markets, but then they have to deal with gaylord vendor locks. (Which is the problem I'm having now with my CDMA carrier...if the technologies are compatible, why do I have to jump through hoops?)

No LTE, no care.
LTE networks are getting lit up worldwide.
It uses several different bands so its not completely standard, but we have 5 band radios in phones now, whats a couple more bands? (And I think HSPA+ comes in a couple different bands too IIRC) Doesnt the iphone 5 use 1 radio chipset that covers every major worldwide band?
Nothing stopping google from putting the LTE radio in the device and letting you put whatever sim you want in it. No locks/unlocks required
anyway, after filling up my nexus7 16gb in short order, I wont ever buy another mobile device that doesnt have a card slot. fuck off google, im not using your cloud storage bullshit when I may not have a connection wherever I go.

That might be true if any US LTE provider actually allowed you to do that. Buuuuuuuuuuuuuut they don't.
