| Dr_Cli | Warren, checking in! | 02:24 |
| snap-l | Good morning | 13:35 |
| snap-l | Time to go and get my hair cut | 13:35 |
| snap-l | (finally) | 13:35 |
| rick_h_ | ugh, sucky morning | 13:53 |
| snap-l | HOw's the afternoon? | 18:59 |
| rick_h_ | snap-l: meh | 20:22 |
| greg-g | ok, which smart phone does everyone recommend? :) | 22:59 |
| ebarch | greg-g: android I hope? | 23:02 |
| ebarch | and in that case...it all depends on the carrier you're going to go with | 23:03 |
| greg-g | ebarch: i'm a free agent | 23:08 |
| greg-g | and yeah, droid | 23:08 |
| ebarch | what are you looking for in terms of data transfer? the only unlimited carriers right now are sprint and tmobile...unless you go prepaid w/ virgin mobile or boost | 23:10 |
| greg-g | good to know | 23:10 |
| greg-g | I want data transfer, as much as I can get :) I'll be commuting via a train every day (in SF) so I want some internet time there | 23:11 |
| greg-g | in general, do you have a favorite/think it is the best android phone out right now? | 23:12 |
| greg-g | ebarch: thanks for your info though, you've been helpful already! | 23:12 |
| ebarch | greg-g: no prob! if you want cheap, virgin mobile is $25/mo for unlimited data, text + 300 mins but their coverage isn't amazing | 23:14 |
| ebarch | i know boost is around $50/mo for unlimited | 23:14 |
| ebarch | galaxy s ii is the best if you can get your hands on it | 23:14 |
| ebarch | i'd highly suggest getting something without a locked bootloader or something easy to root if you're interested in really customizing it and loading up a different ROM | 23:15 |
| ebarch | HTC is pretty good for that | 23:15 |
| ebarch | motorola has been notoriously bad | 23:15 |
| * greg-g nods | 23:15 | |
| ebarch | for verizon, the thunderbolt is pretty solid in addition to the incredible 2 | 23:16 |
| * greg-g is taking notes | 23:16 | |
| ebarch | on att, the infuse 4g and inspire 4g are pretty solid | 23:16 |
| ebarch | sprint would probably be evo 3d, evo shift, or the nexus 4g | 23:17 |
| greg-g | cool | 23:17 |
| ebarch | not sure about tmobile... i know virgin mobile is getting the motorola triumph which is supposed to be good | 23:18 |
| ebarch | thankfully android has really come down in price and pretty much all of the phones you can get right now will run plenty fast | 23:19 |
| greg-g | yeah, awesome | 23:19 |
| greg-g | now I guess it is time to price out some actual plans in SF | 23:19 |
| ebarch | i've still got my year old evo 4g and it runs just as fast as most phones today...i loaded it up with cyanogenmod to get rid of the HTC crap | 23:19 |
| greg-g | right right | 23:19 |
| ebarch | heh, yeah...the carrier will be the main deciding factor | 23:19 |
| greg-g | thanks man! | 23:19 |
| ebarch | no prob...give me a shout if you have any other questions | 23:20 |
| greg-g | will do! | 23:21 |
| greg-g | you are now my go-to person, just fyi ;) | 23:21 |
| ebarch | haha, cool with me...just message me if i don't respond in the chat | 23:21 |
