Nice. Sylent would goto to Vegas at this time of year, but it wasn't for CES.

Sylent_Asassin · 01-07-2011, 06:51 PM

I'm actually interested in some of the new phones that will be displayed at the CES this year.

Get an Android tablet with Honeycomb. Like the Motorola Xoom.

and printer accessible. My wife has the iPad and all it's good for is surfing the net. My laptop can do so much more and costs less.

I quite like the Galaxy Tab. The 7-inch stuff is nice, because they can fit in your pocket.

AT&T has LTE now too lol. I'm on T-Mobile. I leave the country sometimes, so I need GSM phones lol.

TheGoatLantern · 01-07-2011, 07:40 PM

LTE on At&t is hardly LTE at all

Is that crap even on TMo? I have the Samsung Vibrant. Arguably the best Android phone on the market. I do wish it had a FFC and Flash though.

TheGoatLantern · 01-07-2011, 07:49 PM

Some reason i thought you had a webOS phone, and I'm an HTC fan, I was going to talk you into getting the mytouch 4g

Razorgod · 01-07-2011, 07:49 PM

My wife's Devour is no slouch.....I don't know about the best, but it's arguably pretty bad ass.

TheGoatLantern · 01-07-2011, 07:50 PM
