i think it is kinda weird that so many people here use the internet but the internet connnection still SUCKS!!! its not fair :(
no wonder my downloads go down to 600 B/s
It is possible to ask for the impossible but the world is advancing quiet rapidly i reckon and we are lucky as to be in an stranded island and still have some decent internet. As of the i Phone killer thing it is very possible, even now, i have no intention in getting an i Phone whatsoever because i have a HTC smart-phone and i am quite comfortable with it. wouldn't change it for an i Phone
Whhoaaaa.. You think there'd be more people using the internet in places other then The states and australia..
:3
I don't think this iPhone killer will sell more than an iPhone.. ive had every new iPhone that came out and everytime they have got better. I just can't see this phone selling more.
wow that is a looong cable, I wonder how long it took to lay it all down?
