    All right guys... talk to me about current or soon to be available Cell phones.

    I have had mine for almost 2 years now and it is about time to upgrade.

    I have a Samsung Galaxy s3 right now. It is a good size, not too big in the hand (the Notes were too big for me).

    What are some of the best product out there? Power, durability, SD card slot, etc.

    Woot fixed my Chromebook today. The trackpad was acting up and not working. I took it apart, pulled the track pad out, cleaned it with rubbing alcohol and put it all back together. working like a champ now.

    Also while apart I put in a faster/larger SSD which makes the boot up time under 5 seconds. I think I can install more ram into this thing as well but I need to look it up.

    I've never had any hands on time with the Dragon Box, but the reviews I've been reading seem very positive.

    This seems like a better version of a Roku. Still the only review I found that was bad it sounds like the lady doesn't know how to plug in cables and had a hard time setting it up.

    Seems a bit pricy but could be worth it. Are you going to get it?

    Reviews are solid. Hardware is solid. It runs Android 4.2.2 core/framework so it can run Android games and I'm sure be rooted/hacked.

    The prices seems high but if it works better than Roku and Squeezebox then its worth the extra $$$.

    I like the looks of that one. I especially like the speakers on the front. such a simple, yet smart design feature.
