Caged posted:who the gently caress has a problem moving the cursor around on a touchscreen? yeah my old htc was poo poo at it but if you buy a good phone running a good os then its fine. it's not a problem that needs solving by an upside down optical mouse. i had an old htc phone like 5 years ago with a touchpad thingy on it and the only thing i ever used it for was a couple of sloppy ports of vidya games to the phone tbh

the prices are all over 100 bucks these days because of AT&T having that special deal where bringing in just about any blackberry from any carrier would get you $100 in credit at corporate stores. god bless at&t for ridding the world of thousands of blackberries

During the second quarter, over 255 million Android-based devices shipped worldwide, representing an 84.7 percent market share, IDC reported on Thursday. Apple's iOS came in second place with 11.7 percent market share and 35.2 million shipments. Combined, the Google and Apple operating systems own 96 percent of the global smartphone market, according to IDC. Windows Phone was only able to nab 2.5 percent of the market in the second quarter on 7.4 million shipments. Blackberry came in fourth place with 0.5 percent share, according to IDC [about 1.5 million shipments].

basically if you get a review of something that already seems pretty poo poo where they don't even mention "feels good in the hand", it's such a crappy product that there's nothing to say to redeem it.
