"sent 5MB of data back to earth today, it was an mp3 of "bust a move" by young mc. LOL THEY HATE THAT SONG!" "I did a science on my internals and everything's super great! I'm full of PLUTONIUM AND GEARS AND LONELINESS!! YOLO… thank God. "

:dumb: Old news yes, obsolete? The flagship android phone that's nearly identical to the US carrier branded S3 with newer OS is far from obsolete. Still the best phone you can buy as far as I, and many others are concerned. Buy this S3, switch to AT&T or T-Mo and get a cheap month-month plan. http://www.expansys-usa.com/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-android-smartphone-marble-white-unlocked-232311/ Quad core goodness + no expensive contract

I ate some dippin dots today while driving my lunar rover to work. Seriously though http://curiosity.discovery.com/topic/physics-concepts-and-definitions/ten-nasa-inventions.htm They had this special on the science channel last night about the landing, pretty interesting and crazy how they got the thing on the surface.

It's between the S3 and the Nexus. The S3 has a higher MP camera, larger battery, quad core CPU, so it has better specs than the 8 month old nexus, but the nexus you can get for free now of verizon which is awesome, and it runs jelly bean, it has vanilla android so you don't have to deal with the TouchWiz skin. Also the S3 still has a button on the front, it's 2012, phones don't need buttons anymore. http://www.autoomobile.com/news/samsung-galaxy-s3-vs-nexus/100852/

They will just be signing forms and looking at photos right? Customer will never know the difference, so sign like you normally would, and swipe left or right and pinch to zoom photos on either device. Don't quote me on this, but I'm 90% sure that Google mentioned the reason they (and Amazon and Barnes and Noble) chose a 7" display was because studies showed that it is the most comfortable/practical/preferred size. So holding it with one hand while signing would be easier, and it's also something you could carry in your pants pocket and pull out for the customer right away.

Fair enough, I can agree with that, mostly. Rebuttal: iPads are easy to use and users/customers will recognize them instantly. Also, there's no need to train others who may be using them (Again, I contract out work and most every photog I use takes my gear and has zero issues) It's a rectangle just like any other tablet, it has also been said that Android, especially 4.0 and up is easier to use. Since Android is the mostly used mobile OS in the world (56% vs 22%), it should be familiar to most. There's no need for an SD slot, do it all wirelessly. Agree. No need for an HDMI Slot, just buy an HDMI Cable adapter, I do presentations every day using my iPad either wirelessly or via cable where needed. Agree No USB Slot needed, again, wireless is easy, but there are adapters available if that's what you insist on. Agree, but if that's what you insist on, there are plenty of tablets with it built in. Refurbished units are available if price is a concern, but again, is this a business or a hobby? If $500 on an iPad and technology is a concern, I would question the business plan. I have 20x that in gear just for my use let alone what I have others using and $500-$1000 isn't anything at all to invest in equipment. Sure, but why spend more for the sake of spending more when you can have a product that is just as good, if not better and fills your needs more for less.

Yeah you should totally do the iPad. First off go and spend $500, it's only almost 5 times your budget but it's worth it cause it doesn't have any of the features your want, you have to then spend MORE money to add those.

I love those hipster edit photos. http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/124/488/tumblr_llekcwQJ3m1qdku4ro1_500.jpg http://i.imgur.com/45Ik4.gif

I must say, one time I got really annoyed by a Frenchman talking about soccer. He had that arrogance as well.

Well the horn you are referring to is called a vuvuzela, and that's not a soccer thing, it's a black South African thing, it's a traditional horn that they then started bringing to soccer games. It is a very annoying sound yes, and you and the world has only been introduced to it for the last 2 years, I grew up having to hear that shit. Drunks singing and yelling is a part of most football sports (Football aka soccer, American Football, Rugby Football), and it's usually fun but can sometimes be annoying too, sure. The problem with the OSU fan is their attitude. They don't realize that outside their little bubble that is central Ohio, people don't really give any fucks about Columbus, Ohio, OSU or their football team. They have their own sports teams that they like, but they typically aren't as arrogant and in your face about it as the typical buckeye fan. I have been around a lot of fans of different sports and different teams, never been annoyed by any of them, and I'm usually interested in what they have to say, with the exception for OSU fans.

No you can't. No one is as annoying as buckeye fans. I have a friend who loves the buckeyes, but he hates the fans. He calls himself a buckeye supporter instead.

No matter where I go in the world, I've never met sports fans as annoying as buckeye fans. I went down to Cabo a few years ago and some of the people I was with started yelling OH-IO in some small bar we went to. The bar tenders and everyone else were just like..."who are these obnoxious fucks?" Then of course some guy from Ohio came out of the woodwork and started talking to us. It's embarrassing to travel abroad with some Americans.

This.

http://www.cracked.com/blog/the-4-most-meaningless-arguments-against-gun-control/ It's not a perfect article, it is cracked after all, but it does make a lot of good points that I agree with, ESPECIALLY about the 2nd amendment. I've always felt that way about people who bring up The Constitution on ANY topic.

It doesn't look bad. This however, looks great. http://www.workwheelsusa.com/media/gallery/10/897_full.jpg http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthread.php?5763164-BRZ-FR-S-Wheels-Thread

Being able to sign a release form immediately made me think of the Galaxy Note 10.1, and it has a SD card slot. http://au.ibtimes.com/articles/369934/20120803/samsung-galaxy-note-10-1-tablet-release.htm#.UBvo0iJnD3I In your price range, you have to go with the Nexus 7 which is $199. Used would be ok if you can find one.

No bollocks

Shits fresh son. Recently got completely overhauled to the HD layout. http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2011/09/directvhdui090311.jpg http://www.missingremote.com/sites/default/files/u5904/Directv%20HD%20UI.jpg

When watching Breaking Bad, AMC sure likes to make a point about it that it's not available on Dish every change they get. :lolguy:
