You two think I don't have access to the same pages you have concerning phones and hardware?
The best part of your whole argument is your comparing rooted droids to a iOS iphone! A jail broken iphone is that much better.
I've had an EVO since it was released and I have to restart maybe once every other month.

My stock Captivate wiped the floor with iphone. If you actually used those pages you were talking about you would know that the stock CPU in pretty much any real Android phone is the same or better than that of the iphone.
And a jailbroken iphone isn't . You finally get to use basic flash. That's it. Great.
And your original argument was that no Android phone or tablet is ever worth owning because A. You bought a ty Cliq and B. You heard one of Howard Stern's jackasses admit he didn't know how to use his EVO.
You don't wanna buy an Android, fine, like I said, the iphone is idiot proof.
Now get the out of this thread. It isn't here for factless idiots to ignorantly about how much they don't wanna own Androids. It's for Android owners to talk about the phones they use and enjoy. So you for opening your ignorant mouth in the first place and seriously, stop posting.
You bought a Cliq. So I'm going to have to go with, "No." Because, again, you bought a ing Cliq.
You know guy, it would have been one thing if you had said, "I think I would prefer an iphone." That's an acceptable position. I'm sure you would prefer an iphone. Many people do.
It's a shame that instead, in the Android thread, you decided to opine that the iphone is better than Android, because in your opinion, no android phone/tablet, ever, is worth owning from a hardware perspective. Your posit besides being provably and entirely false, is born out of shameful ignorance of the most simple, basic facts and your own idiotic consumer experience. Your argument, world's, if it can even be called that, incites vitriol because it's not only a preference presented as fact, but is a preference based on NO facts. Zero. If you wanted to be taken seriously or treated with respect, you should have come strong with a respectful argument, rather than a bunch of incoherent, non-sensible ramblings that didn't serve any purpose other than being inflammatory.
"me stupid me thinks me shouldn't have to close a program and then use another program to close it again","me stupid me thinks me shouldn't have to turn off wifi's and 3gb's so me magical talking plastic dont need to plug in wall every five hours"
"idiot proof" or just common sense?
yeah I bought a cliq cause I was thinking one it was motorola and two it was google, can't go wrong, especially after owning two htc products, I really didn't want a g1. I won't get burned again.
So when are any of u going to waste ur money on a droid tablet? I'm dying to know all the extra effort u have to put into it just to make it work aswell as my iPad.
I spent 250 on an android "tablet" and spent 3 minutes making it work in the manner of which you speak. I might spend another 3 mins to upgrade the OS again soon, but that will be only to see what new features are available. I currently don't find anything lacking.
Here you can discuss anything related to Android phones.............. debates between Iphone 4 and Evo 4gYou're an idiot.You know guy, it would have been one thing if you had said, "I think I would prefer an iphone." That's an acceptable position. I'm sure you would prefer an iphone. Many people do.

So you admit you made a purchase solely on name-brand recognition, instead of actually doing research and looking through reviews?
Thanks for showing off your idiocy.You two think I don't have access to the same pages you have concerning phones and hardware?You contradict yourself in nearly sequential posts, nicely done.
At least if balli, myself, or Drachen purchases a Droid OS, we'll know how to work it. I know, I know, having FOUR buttons on your electronics device is just too dizzying to contemplate, but some of us can manage.So when are any of u going to waste ur money on a droid tablet? I'm dying to know all the extra effort u have to put into it just to make it work aswell as my iPad.
Btw, I have a Droid tablet. It's called the Nook Color. $250. Does nearly everything an iPad can do.![]()
Define work and are u posting on this board using said tablet? Because my tablet has replaced my pc with the exception of playing fallout 3
work
/wɜrk/ Show Spelled [wurk] Show IPA noun, adjective, verb, worked or ( Archaic except for 35, 37, 40 ) wrought; working.
–noun
1.exertion or effort directed to produce or accomplish something; labor; toil.
I am work, don't have my NC out. If you are comfortable typing 20 page papers on your Ipad, then I must concede, that is one area where I am not going to give up my laptop. Other than this, it does everything I ask it to. However, having used the Ipad, I wouldn't type a 20 page paper on it either.
Yes before I got burnt with the android cliq I thought all droid phones would at a minimum at least operate, coupled with my friend who is a fan boy of droid saying his g1 is "amazing" but then ing about it every time he used it around me. So I didn't read any reviews on the phone.
The nook hack can't even wifi, ur really stretching "does everything a iPad can"
I wouldn't type a 20 page paper on it without a keyboard.
what are you talking about "cant even wifi?". It most certainly uses wifi. How do you think I surf the net, etc on it?
You and I agree here, connect a blue tooth keyboard to the NC and it would work well.
Did you and Viva get together and compare notes on Android-based devices? Because you guys keep talking , unfortunately you're both full of it and you still think you know more than anyone else, even though you admitted to doing zero research into the topic and you're making statements that have absolutely no basis in reality.
I guess I'll go download a few books on my Nook now. But it doesn't have Wifi, so I guess I'll have to use a process called "magic".![]()
Directly from the B&N website.
TA-DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
While you are correct, you are not responding to what he said. He said the nook hack doesn't have wifi. The B&N website will tell you nothing about the nook hack (or root in the parlance of our product).
I'm pretty sure only the Gingerbread hack doesn't have wifi (and that's just because it's less than a week old). With a basic root, The NC does have Wifi, so even if that's what he meant, he was wrong for not being specific. Soon, the Gingerbread root will definitely be running wi-fi, because the Android hacking community is that damn awesome.

@ anyone who buys a product because they didn't research trying to tell others what is good. Thats some funny .
I have not heard of any Gingerbread root that has been released. I know that CM is working on a CM7 rom for the NC but they have been very careful not to release anything until everything works.
The Honeycomb developmental image was released (not the full source code yet) and someone was able to finagle that onto the nook color (incidentally using lessons learned from the CM7 team) and the only reported issue with regarding functionality is that it doesn't play sound (wifi works, they got the youtube app going). Though it is not as smooth as you are used to with the NC. Once the actual source code is released the CM team has said that they will work on a NC honeycomb ROM (of course as soon as they are finished with CM7), and they will have a big head start due to the work of this one guy over the past week.
If you are aware of a gingerbread ROM that has already been released I would be interested.
Oh, and the biggest gift that B&N gave to the developing community is the NC's boot structure. It seeks to boot off of the SD card FIRST meaning that it is pretty much impossible to brick. You would have to actively seek to brick your NC in order to do so. If a developer messes up a little bit of code installs it and the NC won't boot up anymore, just put a working image on an sd card, boot up, and move the image over, no problem. Honestly, it surprises me every day how much this is an extremely versatile and well thought out tool.
edit: I lied, NC honeycomb: "Now with sound!"

I love how even android users compare their phones for the typical studders associated with droid.
oh yeah and when I said no wifi i was assuming he was running Honeycomb since he said "its just as good as ipad" I didnt even think he would be using 2.2 since 2.2, again a total os, would not even be in the same planet as iOS. Another note Honeycomb is already behind the soon to be released iOS.
