Seriously? You cant ready 600 pages?

Reading is pretty low on the android users priority list. They spend a lot of time installing custom roms, over clocking etc to try to stop the constant force closes.

wow taco, your quite the droid hater... looks like the old mac vs pc war but just a new avenue. Unfortunately apple will go back to where it was prior to jobs taking over. BANKRUPT! If you have an open mind, both OS systems aren't perfect, I'm ok with that, still I dot have as much anger towards apple fans, that their choice. No reason to hate. You sound soooo angry... BTW reading is a lot more common than you would think for droid users, go look at the kindle downloads on the droid market in comparison to apple before you make such a people throwing statement...

It's called a joke ladies, no need to get your panties all in a bunch over it. Notice there was no bashing in my post at all, but because I questioned the number of pages in what is most likely to become your new bible, you go on the attack. Relax, laugh, and ease up a little. It's not all that serious people

well I see your point and well taken, people like taco need a spanking once in awhile for being so righteous and closed minded... it's not a joke to him so that where I step in until he calms the #%&^% down

If thats what it takes to do what Steve has done for us then I would go through the same.
No one here can honestly say they have had more success than failures in their life. From when you are a kid you broke bones, fell out of treens and so on. Put that on a larger scale, reinventing entire industries to the point other companies are created from it. If it werent for the iPhone we would have no Android.

i was with ya, right up until the end. again, for the 400th time, timetable after timetable shows that android was in development longer than iOS.

If it wasnt for BOTH of them, NEITHER would look the way they currently do.

It came out after iPhone. They completely changed the form factor of their phone after the iPhone came out. They incorporate all the touch gestures that iPhone made popular.

Stop living in denial

touchscreen wasnt made popular by the iPhone, touchscreen can be used by everyone like the iPhone did, why not the gestures?

manufacturers like Palm, SE, Nokia, LG and Samsung had touchscreen models since 2004. do your research..

I would sat HTC made touchscreens popular. They made a few handsets (Touch Pro, Touch Pro 2, XV 6900) that started the shift to touchscreen devices. But Apple exploded the market with the iPhone and made smartphones popular. I'm suprised you didn't give Apple it's full credit.

Never said they came before the iPhone, I said they made touchscreens popular. When the iPhone was still exclusive to AT&T, the TP, TP2, and other touchscreen phones were bringing touchscreens to the masses. You may believe differently if you had an iPhone then, but for everyone else, these were the phones we saw in our stores alond with a few others of course. That was my perspective.

The real question is what are you doing to fight world hunger other than post on a site about cell phones? I'm not saying you're not active, but before you say what "people" are doing, I'd like to know what you're doing to fight those things as well...

9. arcq12 posted on 24 Oct 2011, 08:40 4 2

That's not the real question because that's not the point. The point is why do these Apple fans can't move on with 1 person's death so bad that they almost wanna live in Job's grave, while theres a lot more important things going on. Thousands of people are dying everyday because of poverty and yet they care more on Job's death. Do you realize this? Or you're being blinded and brainwashed by Apple as well? Think again.

11. taco50 (banned) posted on 24 Oct 2011, 10:50 0 2

No that's a great question. What are you doing to stop those kids deaths?

Did you see btw that about 50% of VZW LTE sales were mobile broadband last quarter. Idiot.

ohh hey there taco how ya doing? ohh about the LTE sales? we are referring about the article right? the one you researched wasnt mentioned in the article and the article is only talking about VZW smartphone sales for Q3. its not my fault neither yours'.. its the authors fault..

and you just can't get over it, cant you?

It was talking about their Q3 announcement. You assumed, as fandroid do, that all 1.4 million LTE sales were smartphones. When I pointed out those sales included mobile broadband. You threw a hissy fit and called me an idiot. I then linked to VZW transcript where they said bout half those sales were mobile broadband as I pointed out.

Now you backpedal. It's not your fault? Well maybe not up until it was pointed out to you and then you acted like a moron.

alright here we go again taco, it says on the article that they sold 5.6 Million "SMARTPHONES", 2 million of them are iPhones (which are "SMARTPHONES") and 1.4 LTE devices (why would they include broadband sales if it says "SMARTPHONES"?).

heres what the article said:

'For starters, Verizon sold 5.6 million smartphones in this trimester with an impressive 2 million of them being the iPhone 4. Also 1.4 million LTE devices were sold and that's a big part of why carrier's profits are up on surging revenue from data.'

now you came up with a link that says 1.4 million LTE devices include broadbands where it wasnt really mentioned in the article here in PA..

you acted like you're stupid even though it clearly said on the article that its all about smartphones.. you just couldnt resist for being an a$$ when it comes to Apple vs Android huh?

alright,

to be fair, PA doesnt always reiterate the news completely. Many times, important little tidbits are left out either by accident, or to keep the flames alive in the fanboys.

Much like that article that incorrectly stated how many android users were willing to move to iOS when the new phone came out, that taco consistently misquotes.

If the actual link to the original article said both aircards and smartphones, then it was probably a mistake by PA and taco is right. If it didnt, then taco is wrong.

It didn't say that in the article. It said 5.6 million smartphones were sold. It also said 1.4 million LTE devices. I pointed out to you it said LTE Devices not smartphones at which point you said I was an idiot.

A smart person would at least check into it before coming to a conclusion

and i'm not backpedaling, i'm just making my point.. my point that you couldn't understandd..
