Everyone loves iPhones and android phones. But supposedly the new windows phones are all going to be greatly improved yadda yadda. I'm waiting for blackberry 10. From what they told us, its going to be the biggest improvement of all the new phones.

Ok so I had to check. The Nokia lumia uses windows 7.1 or 7.5 which came out in feb2011. Nokia Lumia somehow won best smartphone jan9 2012. Got me how. I mean it's not terrible, but it's definitely not the or a best by any stretch.

Best smartphone according to whom, and how much did Microsoft pay them to fix the contest?

It was the only entry?

Apparently they are a thing.:)

If you get to that place ask for that guy and tell him I sent ya, he will hook you up.

Spell, is that the guy with the flesh, who breaths air?

[#] Mon May 21 2012 12:13:34 EDT from kc5tja

I think I know the guy. He and I attended
that one function together, once.

You might be thinking of the other guy. He has very similar looks. If you're looking at a photo check for his subtle distinguishing features. Also see if the photo is tagged -- he does have a name.

Yeah, he has a name, and it's almost like his brother's name, except the first part of it is different.

[#] Tue May 22 2012 13:49:58 EDT from Spell Binder

I've met both of them and he and his brother couldn't be any more different.

If you've see Juan, you've seen Amal.

BOOM! (Intentional.)

you mean triL's pun didn't bring down the server?

[#] Wed May 30 2012 14:49:24 EDT from triLcat

come on, LS, it wasn't THAT bad.

Well, maybe it was...

Wow, been busy around here with all those things you've seen and the places you've gone!

IG, Sorry to hear about Boo-Boo's surgery - hope she's back to chasing picnics!

RE from earlier: I still use the telnet client. I actually enjoyed the older HTML interface a few years ago. The new one has more of a forum-like look to me. Either way, I'm all about the telnet anyways. If you had a dial up line I'd call ya 2400 baud. Sometimes I run a line inducer and use SEXPOTS and call this 2400 baud just for the fun of it.

There's nothing like march mode with the telnet client to run through the board and see what's new.

Actually, SSH is suspiciously like that. And kind of preferred, for me.

I don't know whether this is ironic or pathetic: my sister seems to think that it's perfectly reasonable to drive on the interstate with a smartphone in her hand, tweeting about how bad the *other* drivers are.
