00:02.40 | Templarian | Oh, yea I guess sprint says that is what the 10 dollars is for. |
00:05.59 | Eguy | Sprint has said the $10 is for a lot of things |
00:06.08 | Eguy | From the USB tethering to Qik. |
00:06.31 | Eguy | It's just to get more money out of subscribers and lose customers. |
00:07.07 | Templarian | Eguy: I want to see 8 people tether to an EVO torrent and try and play games. *boom* "Hmm lost internet weird" |
00:07.25 | Templarian | try an* |
00:08.00 | Eguy | That's $30 a month. |
00:09.13 | Templarian | I know I didn't say yours. |
00:11.20 | Eguy | I don't know who is dumb enough to pay for WiFi tethering when USB tethering is free. |
00:12.30 | Templarian | Plus usb tethering is so simple. |
00:12.42 | Templarian | The second I plug my phone in it connects. |

00:14.40 | Eguy | Well, you have to click it on the EVO. |
00:14.46 | Eguy | But yeah, very easy. |
00:15.02 | Eguy | And it doesn't kill the battery as much as WiFi tethering would. |

01:14.15 | acydlord | its looking like i might replace my pre with an evo next month when im up for renewal |
01:15.51 | Eguy | It looks like a lot of webOS users are doing the same. |
01:22.43 | acydlord | i wonder if HP planned ahead and bought some stoke in google since they will be sending developers to android |

02:41.55 | Templarian | Being the first 4G phone is going to be an insane selling point. |

02:52.28 | Eguy | Yeah, I was just going to say that. The commercial looks great. |
02:52.59 | Eguy | lol @ article. |
02:54.42 | Eguy | Can't wait for the phone, it is really good. |
02:54.56 | Eguy | The included SD card seems to have problems though. |

03:03.01 | Eguy | Nice. |
03:03.41 | Templarian | I'm seeing Spin Doctors friday. |
03:04.00 | Eguy | I don't know what that is. |
03:04.12 | Eguy | Luckily Trillian has wikipedia built in :) |
03:04.18 | Eguy | This new version is great. |
03:04.30 | gkatsev | free version? |
03:04.44 | Eguy | It's free now. |
03:04.50 | gkatsev | is it? |
03:04.54 | Eguy | Since 3.0 |
03:05.44 | gkatsev | they still have trillian pro |
03:05.49 | Eguy | Yep. |
03:06.31 | gkatsev | is the non-pro actually usuable? |
03:06.32 | Templarian | I used trillian for years till Pidgin got more stable. |
03:06.42 | Eguy | gkatsev: Yep. |
03:06.50 | Templarian | I always used Pro cracked though. |
03:06.56 | gkatsev | when trillian first split off to free and paid, the free version was a piece of shit |
03:07.15 | gkatsev | s/was/became/ |
03:07.18 | Eguy | I got pro when they put it on sale and it was really cheap. |

03:14.14 | gkatsev | lol |
03:14.28 | gkatsev | yeah... first occurance |
03:15.57 | Eguy | Apparently the SD card that is included is having slow down issues and formatting problems. |
03:18.37 | Templarian | They are probably really cheap. |
03:18.55 | Eguy | Sandisk 8GB I think |
03:19.23 | Templarian | I mean they probably ordered the batch with lower quality. |
03:20.05 | Eguy | The phone is so damn cheap I bet. |
03:21.07 | Templarian | Eguy: it's because they ordered so many of them. |
03:22.46 | Templarian | Even if the EVO wasn't the best device the 4G and data price will sell it. |
03:23.09 | Eguy | The 4G isn't even a reason for me getting it. |
03:23.18 | Eguy | I'd get it if it didn't have it. |
03:23.26 | Eguy | I'll probably keep 4G off all the time. |
03:23.48 | gkatsev | yeah, the battery life goes down the crapper with 4g on, supposedly. |
03:24.00 | Eguy | Really fast. |
03:24.05 | Eguy | 2500mhz is a killer |

18:49.43 | Eguy | Yuck Super AMOLED http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/03/samsung-galaxy-tab-revealed/ |
18:49.50 | Eguy | It's way too bright |
18:50.33 | Eguy | Ballmer is at D8 and Engadget gives him 1 post. Jobs was at D8 and they give him 8 posts. |
18:50.40 | Eguy | Something is not right here... |
18:51.02 | Templarian | Oh yea i saw that. |
18:51.05 | Templarian | Not the courier. |
18:51.16 | Eguy | Close enough to the Courier |
18:52.21 | Templarian | Stylus was 90% of the courier. |
18:52.40 | Templarian | Without the Courier UI it is just a large touch screen device. |
18:53.05 | Eguy | So you will have to get a Win 7 tablet now if you want a stylus. |
18:56.31 | Templarian | I'm fine waiting. |
18:57.22 | Eguy | The Galaxy S still is impressive though. |
18:57.29 | Eguy | Bluetooth 3.0 |
18:57.42 | Templarian | Yea, that shocked me a little. |
18:58.05 | Eguy | I'm not sold on the screen though. |
18:58.14 | Eguy | I'd take it, but I think it looks fake |
18:59.12 | Templarian | Fake as in? |
18:59.20 | Templarian | Like it was printed on? |
18:59.30 | Eguy | It looks cartoonish |

19:00.35 | Eguy | gkatsev: No, but my 120hz TV doesn't help :P |
19:00.55 | gkatsev | ok, cuz people say it looks fake and low budget |
19:01.02 | Eguy | It does. |
19:01.12 | gkatsev | ... |
19:01.28 | Eguy | Ever watched TV on a 120hz LCD? |

19:03.17 | Eguy | Ah. |
19:03.20 | Eguy | It's very weird. |

22:46.00 | Eguy | You can jerk off to the Super AMOLED screen, and it has a keyboard. |
22:46.11 | Templarian | If XDA gets WP7 on the EVO I will be getting an EVO. |
22:46.16 | Eguy | It's what you always wanted. |
22:46.56 | Templarian | I know, i want it, but it's android. |
22:47.22 | Eguy | And it has TouchWiz |
22:47.32 | Eguy | Which is worse than suicide. |

22:49.04 | Eguy | I'm a little ticked off that out of the 1GB ROM, the EVO only has 3xxMB of app space. |
