    Yup it was like that last night. Right as I would fall asleep I got woke up. But hey, who else is having percocet and bacon for breakfast? :D

    Hopefully tomorrow morning. I hate being cooped up in here. I am impressed with the staff. Very good treatment.

    Thanks a bunch!

    I've been through 3 HTC evo shifts in 3 years. 100 bucks a pop for replacing them through sprints warranty program. :mad: I hate sprint. I need to look for a better plan for me and the family.

    You in PNH? That place is GREAT!!! I don't care what anyone says... remove the insurance factor... and the care goes through the roof! I know quite a bit about the behind the scenes stuff there... it really is good!!!

    The EVO Shifts tend to go as they are sliders. Common occurance... nothing to do with the carrier... but the design of the phone. Give it a year... all carriers will be very closely matched up. Sprint and AT&T have Lucent and some other contractors doing upgrades on towers across the country. Nextel's freqs are a thing of the past... and will slowly get reutilized for the growing data needs of the customer. While the towers are being adjusted... Sprint's Data takes a huge performance hit. We just got through the majority of it here in Hampton roads. Sprint\AT&T LTE will start rolling out here in 3 to 4 months. On the other hand... Verizon's claim to fame has been there old analogue network... giving you voice coverage ALMOST everywhere. Verizon has always had the biggest network... but at a price to them... and the customers. Well those old towers and associated equipment are a bit too expensive and aging... so they are slowly killing them off... actually decreasing "thier" network. Like Landlines... cell PHONES are less and less important. Everything is mooving to data devices. In 18 months.. there will be no Cell Towers that odo Cell only, except the governments little backbone.

    Damn... I can get off on tangents! Sorry.....:rolleyes:

    We're not changing carriers after all. The carrier we were going to "mis-quoted" their pricing in the tune of over $1000 per month. It is one of their tactics... and when I dug... I found it! N E WAY... I won't have all the trade ins to unload. As far as which one... that is really up to you. It depends on what you want from a phone. You can get many opinions from many Sheepole... I mean people! :D

    On the phones, I'm the guy that had smart phones before they were cool. My first one was purchased back in 99 and made my some Koreans called Kyocera. Palm powered, spontaneous impact weapon. The phone was a brick. I've had a number of manufacturers from HTC, to Starcomm and the one constant, they always had issues within 6-12 months. You would take them in and the carrier would give you a refurb.

    One time I went through three phones in a week. One of the refurbs they sent me didnt even boot.

    Then I tried the iPhone. Is there quirky shift with the os, yeah. Is the "security minded" excuse for not allowing flash BuLlShIt, yup. But the hardware works.

    My first one lasted me for two years before I bought an upgrade then loaned it to a friend who used it for 6 months before her daughter gave it a bath in the toilet. That killed it. My 4 and 4s have been equally reliable. Its why I recommend them.

    I have just under 400 users, all flavors. Although Droids BREAK 5 to 1 vs iPhones, iPhones break 2 to 1 over Blackberry. NOTE... there are over 350 Droids, 27 iPhones, and a dozen BBerrys. So, numbers can and will be manipulated however we want. We've had very few phones go bad without the help of the user... a dozen droids, and 2 i's. On the other hand... nobody keeps any of them too long! I have maybe 10% of our devices being over 2 years old! A year is pretty much the standard.

    Just like trucks... the more you customize them... the better the odds are you can have custom problems.
