internalkernelw00t... new phone! Picked up the HTC Amaze yesterday... my Nexus One is broken... *sniff*14:45
internalkernelits no surprise really... but this phone has comparable specs to my wife's netbook... dual 1.5ghz and 1 GB Ram... Im waiting for quad-core phones... :D14:47
BugeyeDi heard shuttleworth promises ubuntu for your phone soon15:04
BugeyeDi wonder if the phone would have an animal name then ...15:05
internalkernelBugeyeD: lmao...15:07
BugeyeDi recently upgraded to the iphone4s. no computer required for configuration/backup/whatever, so i no longer have to boot my macbook to osx ...15:07
internalkernelth phone might be able to run linux... but definitely not unity. \15:07
BugeyeDa friend recently purchased the atrix and said it was faster than his desktop computer15:08
BugeyeDthese things are amazing as of late15:08
internalkernelthis phone is pretty snappy, especially compared to my nexus - which still has good specs compared to the majority of phones out there15:08
internalkernelthis one happened to be released this month...15:08
BugeyeDwho is your carrier?15:09
internalkernelTmo...15:09
Nivexwhat's broken with your N1?15:09
internalkernelI almost dropped them, but Verizon is the only option... the charging port is trashed.15:10
NivexI wish the radio modules were swappable. I have an AT&T N1 but I switched to T-Mo. It works fine but only get EDGE data.15:10
internalkernelall it is is bare metals strips... there's not even any plastic around them anymore...15:10
BugeyeDi have bad blood with verizon, so i just stuck with at&t.15:10
internalkernelI know they claim the 4G is compatible, but my nexus wasn't a 4g phone... the Amaze is and I have _much_ better service with a 4G phone...15:11
internalkernelfull 4G bars at my house and with the nexus it was one or two...15:11
internalkernelit could be partially due to construction - the nexus suffered from the death grip unfortunately...15:12
BugeyeDfunny how everyone thought that was an iphone issue15:12
BugeyeDyou dropped your landline yet, or are you keeping it for 911?15:13
BugeyeDlooks like he dropped his cell, not his landline15:13
BugeyeDor maybe that was the deathgrip15:13
BugeyeDcan you here me now?15:14
BugeyeDhear15:14
internalkernellol15:14
BugeyeDduh15:14
BugeyeDdeathgrip?15:14
holstein\o/15:14
internalkernellike the old iphone, they bury the antenna in the bottom of the handset which is where most people hold it...15:14
internalkernelso the signal dies.... slowly... while you're holding it...15:15
BugeyeDbut apple got all the heat. i just think it's funny.15:15
internalkernelwell, theirs was the worse...15:15
BugeyeDsure it was. what do you sync your phone data with? i mean contacts/calendars/etc. ?15:15
internalkernelnexus was more like a minor irritation... but I think overall the design was not very radio friendly15:15
internalkernelGoogle partially because of GVoice but everything else through my server - exchange active-sync15:16
BugeyeDwhat server? please tell me it's not actually exchange ...15:16
internalkernelno... Its GroupOffice they use z-push which is an Exchange emulator.15:17
internalkernelbut it works solid15:17
BugeyeDi'm using zimbra at the moment. it works fine. :)15:17
BugeyeDi wonder who turned me on to that ...15:17
internalkernellol...15:17
internalkernelI've since switched to GroupOffice... :D15:18
BugeyeDis that the php thing you were banging on awhile back?15:18
internalkernelyeah... php, meh...15:18
BugeyeDi just threw up a little in my mouth ...15:19
internalkernelbut it does work pretty well, I think they want it do to to much... and they haven't really integrated it in an intuitive manner... you really have to get used to that thing.15:19
BugeyeDwhy that over zimbra?15:19
internalkernelbecause I can configure my subsystem - imap, amavis, postfix, SA, etc - independently of GroupOffice15:20
internalkerneland it doesn't use java, which makes me throw up a little less when I think about it15:20
BugeyeDheh, i hear ya.15:20
internalkernelnot that java isn't a good language, its just that... my god Zimbra needs 2GB of ram to just run15:21
BugeyeDyup15:21
BugeyeDbut i'm pretty impressed with it thus far. i like the search functionality and how everything is all integrated15:21
internalkernelGroupOffice incorporated the postfix admin module too... so you can configure your virtual domains/emails directly in the web app too...15:21
internalkernelzimbra in general is acutally easier to use and understand that GO15:22
internalkernelthat may be a viable alternative if this client gets tired of GO15:22
