    Banks to Start Charging Debit Card Users?

    Wells Fargo's $3 Debit Card Charge: A Sign of More Bank Fees to Come? - DailyFinance Sucks. I bet this is a direct response to laws that greatly reduced maximum service fee charges on debit transactions.

    HTC EVO 4G $180 OBO Clean ESN SPRINT

    I have had this EVO about 8 months. Going with another carrier is why I am selling. In fantastic condition. Has always been in the case (pictured). Looks brand new minus bezel that has some very light scratches; a design flaw, as far as I am concerned. It is rooted with cm7, though I can flash...

    Legalities of Recording "Radio"

    I am pretty sure recording the radio (as in the airwaves deal) is legal. What about satelite radio? And streaming radio (ie pandora)?

    Netflix Movies/Shows Worth Watching

    I am starting this thread because of how often I read that there is nothing on instant stream worth watching. Either these people really have very specific tastes, they have seen everything under the sun, or they just aren't looking hard enough! It would be nice to see some recommendations...

    EVO 4G + Cash for EVO 3D

    So I am looking to trade my EVO 4G + cash for a 3d. My EVO is in like new condition and has always had a case on it. If I can get it for the right price, I'd go this route. Otherwise just waiting on what the nexus 3 ends up being (crossing fingers for HTC or LG!) EDIT: I have no other sprint...

    Defining "Life" In Legal Terms

    I think it is highly likely that we will, at some point, have to give a legal definition to life when it comes to a pregnancy, if we want a definitive "yes, abortion is ok, no it is not ok, or it is ok sometimes". So, what are some opinions on when a life is actually life and should not be...

    Men's Rights in Terms of Child Support and Abortion

    This is an issue I have had for a long while. A woman finds out she is pregnant. Currently, she has the right to choose an abortion. She also has the right to carry the baby to term and give it up for an adoption. If the father wants an abortion, too bad. If the mother wants to keep the baby...

    Post Your Favorite Meal Recipes!

    I was turned onto wanting to start a favorite meal recipes thread by some silly antics meant to lighten the mood of another thread. I decided we could actually have our own thread to share some of our favorite recipes.

    Let's Talk Juicers!

    I am in the market for a juicer. I have tried quite a few centifugal juicers that all end up breaking. Right now I have a juic man II that I bought from a coworker for 20 bucks and decided I wanted to get back into juicing - I realize it's a POS but for $20 I figured it could tide me over until...

    Safest Way to Obtain Money for a Car in a Private Sale?

    Some of you may have read about me selling my truck. I found a buyer at my asking price and he asked me what form of payment I wanted. He suggested a cashier's check straight from his bank. The question is what is safest? I have never sold a car before (that's not true, I sold a car to my...

    Ford Fiesta - Any Good?

    Some may have seen me complaining about a lack of fuel efficient cars in the US. Fords 40mpg line seems about the best we get. Well, my girlfriend's Jetta crapped out. Needs a new transmission and a couple other odds and ends (I am not a car guy, so that's all you get, lol), so she is in the...

    Root So Now that Sense 3.0 DOESN'T Require Dual Core...

    So we now know Sense 3.0 doesn't require dual core. [Desire Z and Inspire 4G have fully functional Sense 3.0 ROMS] What do you guys think? Still anxious for the 3D? With this new developement, I am hoping our EVO 4G gets a ROM built for it and we can go on a test drive before the 3D actually...

    Root Get GTalk Video Chat on Your EVO!

    I know this is up on the "news" section, but thought I would post it here. It's a link (from XDA) to the GTalk app with video chat built in. It works like a charm between my EVO and a landline. Haven't tested it mobile to mobile yet. So long Skype. I'll make sure not to look back for a second...

    Help Me Pick a used 4x4!

    I currently have a 2008 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 with just 15k miles on it. I love the truck to death, and as a result, baby it more than I should. Here in Iowa, winters suck and rust is an issue... something I didn't consider when I bought the truck in Cali. Rather than sit and watch the truck...

    Root Using Google Voice as Voicemail (With CM7)

    I am finding conflicting information about using google voice as my visual voicemail with CM7. Some information I read is that Sprint is still rolling this out. Other information I read says I need to call a number (starting with *) from my mobile phone to set it up. Whenever I call that...

    Dyson Vacuums: They Worth It?

    I have the opportunity to get a Dyson vacuum with a partner discount. This basically amounts to any model at 50% off MSRP. I was looking at the DC24 All Floor model, which would be $200. On paper, it seems like a good deal, but it's still $200 on a vacuum! We have had dirt devils and eurekas...

    Why did they change the menu button?

    So why did they change the menu button on the EVO 3D? On the other 2 EVO line phones it simply says "menu". Now it looks like a bunch of lines... (I am probably late to the party here and others have noticed this, but just wondering what others think).

    Root "Official" Gingerbread Leak

    Is anyone using the "official" Gingerbread leak with Sense 1.0? I just installed it today and thought I would find a thread with people using it by now, but so far nothing. Just wondering what to look for. I was using Myn's RLS5 and miss a few things off the bat. For those that have been...

    Star Wars: The Old Republic

    Anyone excited for this game? I tend to get excited about new MMOs since I am looking for something good enough (end game) to take me away from WoW, which I always seem to quit and then come back to for a handful of months after a new expack comes out. Of course, it is being made by BioWare...

    Help Fring on the EVO

    So being that we have been waiting ages for skype to actually have a video chat function, I decided to give fring a go. It installed just fine, but it said video chat was disabled because of device limitations. I assume this is the popup you get if you install fring on a phone without a front...
