    My sister was able to keep her number when she left my mothers account.
    yeah that hasn't been an issue for years.

    I prefer opera actually. Love the browser and it runs much faster than Dolphin for me.

    It is possible that things have changed, but I used opera and liked it for the reason that you mentioned. I would, however run into sites that wouldn't render correctly and once I got used to the slide out favorites on D HD, I can't go back.

    I switch to Dolphin on sites that don't load as well, but Opera has been pretty awesome lately with rendering.

    1) In regards to the phone number, maybe things have changed but back when I switched, Sprint wouldn't let me take the number. I asked. But if you notice, I said Cingular so that should tell you how long it's been (5 years since I switched when my ex was pregnant with my son).

    2) I read somewhere that Android and Chrome have 2 different development teams and the Android people developed their own browser for Android, independent of Chrome. Therefore, while the Android browser may share a lot of code with Chrome, it's NOT Chrome. In fact, I found this link discussing the issue.

    http://techcrunch.com/2011/05/17/google-chrome-android/

    When Android first launched in October of 2008, it seemed like either a small oversight or precautionary measure that the browser bundled with it wasn’t branded as Chrome. After all, Google’s browser had just launched in beta (on Windows) the month before. Assuming people liked it, you would have assumed that Google would transfer the branding over to use in Android, right?

    Well people did like Chrome. A lot. And yet, Google never moved it over. This despite the fact that Apple did just that on the iPhone with its much less successful Safari browser. Meanwhile, Opera and Mozilla’s Firefox were committed to mobile versions of their popular browsers as well. But Google stuck with “Browser” for Android.

    And now they may be stuck with it for good. The problem is that Chrome, for better or worse, is now associated with another product that is similar but different from Android — again, Chrome OS. Imagine if they start including a Chrome browser on Android tablets and then next year Chrome OS tablets launch. Consumers will wonder what the the difference is? (And this may already prove to be an issue on the PC/Chromebook side of things, we’ll see.)
    It's an interesting point, although in the next sentence the writer mentions the possiblity of Chrome tablets. I don't think that will happen. Google would be STUPID to launch two tablets with two different OS's.

    If you are friends with mostly techies, get the Droid.

    If you like to have sex with girls, get the iPhone.

    Pretty simple, tbh

    Or another way to think about it: If you want to find a woman who is smart enough that you don't have to support, get an android.
    If you want to find out how herpes feels get an Iphone

    The very last possible way of looking at it: if you dig the sexy librarian with the knee high boots, get a Droid. If you dig contemporary Lindsey Lohan with yellow teeth, get an iPhone

    I'm not a fan of cases for my phones (should've seen how my iPhone 3GS looked like), but I decided to grab this one for eBay:

    Looks sexy as , but I still hate cases. Took it off and only kept the screen protector

    Screen protectors are pretty worthless imo. Switcheasy makes some great iPhone cases, and they are reasonably priced.

    I use a TPU case from TPU-Cases.com. I like it, and the owner of the company is a regular on xda-developers, and is very very responsive to any issues.

    I hate like 3 Switcheasy cases for my 3GS, they were nice. But I still ended up going bareback.

    The reason I got a screen protectorfor my S II was because I did some reading and people said the coating of the Gorilla glass screen eventually wore down. Plus even though it's scratch resistant peple have indeed successully scratched it (mainly small particles like sand could do the job).

    The price is right , I'll tell you that. Might be a good one for me on days I want to slip on a case. Thanks.

    yeah, the price is right, that includes shipping too. Also, you will get it fast (I got mine on a wednesday and I ordered it monday evening). He usually releases a case for a new phone, and observes reactions, if people find some design flaws he will correct them, then issue new ones (while sending free ones to the early adopters).

    You can get TPU cases for cheaper (my wife got some through ebay 5 for 8.50), but the design kinda sucks (power button and volume rocker hard to press) and the TPU feels a little different (kinda sticks to your pocket a little).

    I'm considering taking the case off of my iPhone 4.

    is annoying, plus it's hard to access some buttons when it's on

    I have the capsule rebel from switcheasy, and it is a bit annoying it doesn't lay flat but the grip is outstanding and I have dropped it flat on the back several times and it just bounces and is unharmed. I am just paranoid about the back glass.

    I had one for a long time but it was interfering with Angry Birds and had to go.
