Have you not heard? We fixed all the schools already. Children are no longer hungry and the economy is going great. Now we can dedicate all our resources to getting monkeys to use Twitter.
OEMs can and do sell directly to the consumer. However, most consumers are unwilling to pay the price of a phone without a carrier brand/lock. 849$ for an unlocked iPhone 4S with maximum storage direct from Apples store. Same kind of "deals" can be had for many Android phones, but most makers dont have an online store. Bottom line, without the carrier subsidy most people just dont want the things.
Vulgar insults that make you look like a child aside. My first generation Motorola Drioid has also gotten updated frequently, its all in what you buy. Oh, and hows Siri running on your 3GS? Don't pretend that Apple doesn't try to get people to upgrade perfectly usable phones.
When a new string of lights costs two dollars, its kind of hard to justify buying replacement bulbs or repair tools. But then I use LED christmas lights and have yet to have one of them go bad.
They would not be the first Android phone to not use Googles services, hell Motorola replaced the Google services with Yahoo on some of their phones. That does not mean that it is a code fork. So what specifically is different about the OS, other then the non-Google bundled apps?

So then get an incandescent. The law does not forbid them. It just requires that they be efficient.
but when I dream, I get a pony.

You underestimate the importance of a gin & tonic.
Duh....
How can they not be good? They're the same movies they made ten years ago but now with better digital effects!
and not screaming in terror like the passengers in his car.
But all kidding aside, I agree that the so called "futile care" exists for the patients loved ones and not the patient themselves.
Are you kidding? The iPad 2 barley runs Android.
Which is fine, but its a big leap to go from "free apps are nifty and appreciated" to "all apps should be free".
I assume that you work for free, since you expect others to do the same.

Which food pyramid? The real one, which consists of mostly grains and legumes, or the one made by the dairy council that has milk at the top?

So having a phone that is so tightly integrated into the service holds no interest for me. Same reason I wont get another Motorola Android phone.

Keep your devices off it and you can do what ever you want with them. Just dont come to me when they break.

But you where OK with doing business with a company whos TV adds made their domain hosting service look like a soft core porn site?
The republicans are only for the tax cuts the democrats are against. So its not so much that they are pro-tax cut but that they are anti-democrat.
That credit card was already stolen and canceled thanks to Sony!
At a guess, it means 1.925 billion dollars of hidden fees spread out across all the AT&T users.
Peanut butter is a "gel". Gels are only allowed in limited amounts (think those mini-bottles of shampoo).
A picture would require not being lazy. So it will just have to be a non-collapsed wave form, Schrödinger's xmas lights if you will.
I just soldered a bunch of three color blinking LEDs to some watch batteries and threw them at my tree. Actually turned out rather nice.
No, the US will just patent ALL the stupid stuff first! Do you want us to have a PATENT GAP! Well DO YOU!
