    Played with an Epic 4G Touch today, wowsah

    My wife and I are thinking of switching to Sprint from Verizon and I swung by a Sprint store today just to check and see if maybe possibly they had the SGS2 hidden away in the back. They did. I've got a Samsung Fascinate right now and despite the half inch larger screen on the Epic it was...

    What are the current/upcoming phones coming to Sprint?

    My wife and I just moved outside of St. Louis to an area with zero Verizon coverage (their coverage map be damned, two places we've lived now, one in the middle of a major metropolitan area, have had no service). Upstairs you may get one bar but downstairs in the basement it's a no-fly zone...

    Help Can't upgrade Android Marketplace to 2.2.6 (current version)

    Alright, so I'd been having issues with my phone for a while and finally gave up and called Verizon. They overnighted me a replacement and thus far it's working much better in every way except one. I have the old style Android Market installed and I cannot get it to update to the newer version...

    The future of the Fascinate?

    I keep reading all this news about the Nexus S and various new Samsung devices and I'm wondering what the future of the Fascinate will be? Are we going to be kept up to date with the new devices or be left in the dust? I mean, is the Nexus S' hardware that much different than the Galaxy S...

    Impressions of the Evo from a Galaxy S guy

    Whilst visiting my in-laws over Thanksgiving I got to take a look at my cousin's Evo 4G. Being a Verizon guy I'd never really looked at the Sprint phones, and the only HTC phone I'm famaliar with is the Incredible. First off, whoever designed the layout must be a genius, because they...

    Mother in law hates Blackberry, what's Android device should she look at?

    Let me start off by saying that my mother in law is not at all technologically savvy, but she hates her Blackberry with a firey passion. Yes, when she asked the rep at the store for something that was "user-friendly" he suggested a Blackberry... Anyways, she's had about enough of it and...

    Will Gingerbread be out before we see Froyo? Place your bets!

    Well, it's way past time for us to have Froyo and rumors of Gingerbread being released in the very near future are everywhere. So what do you think, will Gingerbread be released (for everyone else, of course) before we see Froyo?

    Help How do I stop notification/ringtones from showing up in the media player?

    Alright, I've looked around but haven't ever found anything concrete for this. Is there a way to keep my ringtones/notifications off of my default music player? I tried adding a text document called .nomedia as I'd read in a different post with no luck. Any ideas?

    Windows Phone 7 techland review

    Techland's Windows Phone 7 review. They like it quite a bit, although I don't think it'll take much of the market from Android or iOS.

    Gmail - Can I select text in an email?

    I can't believe this could be an oversight, surely I'm just missing something. How do I select text in a received email message?

    Any idea if Puzzle Quest/PQ2 are coming to Android?

    I downloaded the demo of Puzzle Quest for the Xbox 360 and I really liked it, I noticed that Puzzle Quest 2 is out on iOS...any idea if either game is coming to Android? I tried Puzzle Lords, there's just not much to it (and I don't like the combat)...

    Switching accounts in Google Talk?

    I did a search and found some old (4-11 months old) threads but I'm hoping there's been some updates. I just decided to give Google Talk a whirl and it looks great, but the first account I added to my phone isn't the account I primarily use (which has the majority of my contacts). Is there a...

    "My Market" app?

    I was browsing through the most downloaded apps and I found the app "My Market" from socialtap. They claim it allows you to download apps from other cellphone providers. I was intrigued but it requires access to my account. Anyone ever used it before? Is it legit? I'm nervous about it...

    Help Can someone explain how Kies works?

    I'm still pretty new to the whole Android/Samsung thing. I keep seeing all these posts about Kies and I've been to the website, I'm just not sure exactly what it does/how it works. Anyone care to give me an idea?

    Android Win!

    My wife had a really crappy day at work. She's driving home and stuck in traffic getting more frustrated by the minute. I wip out the Fascinate, go to YouTube and find the "Laughing baby" vid. Yeah, her iron clad frown faltered. She said usage of such a tactic is "unfair." Score one for...
