    Sticking around a while

    While there are some newer and nicer phones offered, nothing in the near future is worth ponying up around $400+. My S2 does everything I want. Any other thoughts?

    Mobile processor ratings

    Does anyone know of an article the objectively rates the different mobile processors? Exynos vs Qualcomm vs Nvidia? Possible an expanded article rating against Intel mobiles or even desktop oriented chips? I did some searching and came up empty.

    Help Alarm didn't go off

    My alarm didn't go off today, an interesting lockup situation. Methinks it is my fault for not rebooting my phone recently; I think I will start a 2* a week reboot schedule.

    Innovation vs. Natural Progression

    Just my 2 cents ... One of the issues I have with tech companies is when they use the word 'innovation' when they are really following natural progression. Going from a 100GB HDD to a 4TB HDD is not innovation, changing a screen size is not innovation, putting a virtual keyboard on a...

    Dang if the Nexus4 didn't come out around 6 weeks after I bought my SGS2, and for less $. Sure the N4 has no SD support but the specs are sweet on the tongue and enuff GSM no-contract plans ... sigh.

    Wary of the Cloud?

    I was wondering if others are as wary of Cloud based storage as I am. It seems plausible for movies/music type data but I am wary of storing personal type data. 1. ToS can say that a Cloud service 'owns' your data or has the right to access your data. 2. I am hesitant to truly be at...
