i don't really think this analogy is apt.

Trotskilicious 05-27-2014 07:27 PM

yeah why would something with more than half of its surface being devoted to a fucking keyboard be compared to a typewriter

Eulogy 05-27-2014 07:30 PM

the bbz10 is a touchscreen phone for bb's latest os

Eulogy 05-27-2014 07:31 PM

it is, apparently, still pretty underwhelming though. both hardware and software.

MyOneAndOnly 05-27-2014 07:32 PM

loving my Moto X way more than the last iPhone I owned. Also loving that I get unlimited text, talk and data for $40 and no contract.

Fuck Steve Jobs's rotting corpse! there's no reason a phone should cost so damn much!

joking aside, i highly recommend BB10 to anyone who actually uses their phone as a communication device.

yeah okay canada

i highly recommend iOS or android to anyone who actually uses their phone as anything other than a communication device

sppunk 05-28-2014 09:58 AM

BlackBerry, lol.

slunken 05-29-2014 05:00 PM

Its kind of amusing seeing what apps won't work on 5.1.1

For most it will automatically download an older version but for some there just isn't one. Like eBay for example. Has it really only been 3 years since a mobile eBay app existed? Wow what a world.

slunken 05-29-2014 05:02 PM

The major downside is that I can't automatically sync it with my phone/laptop because it wants to update all the apps and that just causes all kinds of hell to deal with.

I've never been on anything but landline. I thought some of you losers had no life. Apparently still enough of one to need a "smartphone" or whatever you damn kids are calling it these days

Trotskilicious 05-29-2014 10:21 PM

seriously do you live in a cave

The exploding boy 05-30-2014 11:30 AM

I don't do phone really. I only answer when people who I know call and that's about four people right there 3 of which are family. Half the time it's Bell calling 3 times a day to tell me my bill is late (yes I fucking know ok, I always paid it too, so shut up). If you need to reach me, and i'm SOMEHOW not at home, then you can fuck off and wait until I get back. But of course I'm rarely not home. Also, I carry a small laptop around (well a netbook really, how passé, yeah cause I can afford a tablet...) if I leave home for longer than a few hours so for anything not phone, I'm still reachable most everywhere I go, just send an email or something.

anyway I can't afford it. Contracts in Canada are still terrible. And like I said, the uses would be so limited for me (no social life to speak of) I don't see the point. Like 4 years ago my girlfriend gave me a blackberry she didn't use anymore, I used it as a mp3 player (cause I didn't have a plan) then a month later it fell in water and died. That's the extent of my history with cells.

Trotskilicious 05-30-2014 11:31 AM

okay i asked if you lived in a cave because you're passing up having a hand held computer for block of text reasons, there's no reason, you're being a jackass as per

The exploding boy 05-30-2014 11:33 AM

there is a reason

1- I can't afford it

2-Uses would be limited.

Those are reasons.

Shallowed 05-30-2014 01:20 PM

I wish I could know how it feels to have owned an iPhone when it was first released and have upgraded it every time a new model was released.

Trotskilicious 05-30-2014 01:51 PM

Uses of a palm sized personal computer "would be limited"

The exploding boy 05-30-2014 06:56 PM

Yes they would because I'm home most of the time. And home I have my desktop and laptop. And I have a mac in the living room (though it's really old and just for recording). so what would I want with a palm sized computer on which you barely can do anything (I mean compared to a desktop) and that I never learned to type fast on. Seriously unless you have people contacting you often through text or calls what is the point?

Trotskilicious 05-30-2014 08:55 PM

yes okay i just want to point out that you're telling me how you'd use something you've never had

Trotskilicious 05-30-2014 08:56 PM

exploding boy circa 1982: why would i need a "personal computer" that sounds dumb i have a VHF television and an atari

Trotskilicious 05-30-2014 08:57 PM

exploding boy circa 1852: a "light bulb" that sounds dumb, uses would be limited. i like to sit on my couch with candles, i think that's probably the right thing to do

Shallowed 05-30-2014 09:41 PM

When iPhones came out I thought they were sour grapes because I already have a phone and an iPod, but thanks to this style of marketing



I'm convinced that my life would be improved if I had one. Though I'm sure that honeymoon period with my new life-improver wouldn't last.

Trotskilicious 05-30-2014 09:55 PM

look you're thinking about it like EB

the only reason i took so long to get one is because i wanted it to be "cheap" and i got one for practically 12 dollars for a few reasons, complicated story anyways

IT'S A FUCKING COMPUTER IN YOUR HAND

A COMPUTER

IN YOUR HAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Trotskilicious 05-30-2014 09:56 PM

but it's a computer

sppunk 05-30-2014 10:13 PM
