Re: Why?
I agree with everything you said except: How is it not your own fault if you don't master your own language? It is definately 100% your own fault if you don't know how to speak your native tongue properly. There are so many, and free ways to brush up grammar and english skills these days, not to mention if it is your native tongue, it means you are born in the region where that is what is primarily ...
This is what your 61 cents goes towards

Re: just checked out the viva movil website
The website says "Language of your Choice"
I quote:
""You deserve a better shopping experience, from premium stores that are family friendly, to being addressed in the language of your choice....""
Really? I speak Thracian, circa 73 BC. Can you assist me? Doubt it.
Jon Stewart can start Jew only stores
Yeah, Prepaid, and yeah, definately sprint.
Re: Why?
I would not look at it that way. Any individual is free to practice their own religion, and do what they want, in any language. I think that is called Freedom, correct me if I am wrong. Also, you can live and work in the United States without being a citizen last time I checked. Saying that this is a bad idea just because "They should learn English" seems a tad ignorant to me. While I do ...
Re: Jennifer Lopez ?
Me too, sounds like it is a grab, and that they are only doing this specifically to try and get more of that specific customer base. I am never a fan of moves like this. This would be like using Jerry Seinfeld to try to get more Jewish customers, or using Will Smith to try to get more african-american customers. These kinds of moves just leave a bad taste in my mouth.
Jennifer Lopez ?
Am I wrong to be offended by this? I feel like they are just employing Jennifer Lopez to try to "grab" Latino customers. I mean, I know she is a huge star with them, but is this really the right thing to do ?
Re: WTF @ VZW....
I completly agree, selling this information is really underhanded by VZW, however, sometimes targeted ads can be better than random ones.
On facebook, I clicked on one star trek ad on the right side, and now almost every single ad I get is star trek related. I'm not complaining.
Homeless people rejoyce
2.5Ghz to offer High speed data to densely populated areas? I am gonig to assume they mean tent cities / public parks with lots of homeless people, because unless you are outside, that spectrum doesn't penetrate. Anything. Toilet paper can effectively block that frequency.
Re: Technically?
You sir are 100% correct. It's like at&t is a government agency or something. The promises are amazing ! they promise everything + the moon. However delivery.... nil. I just love the way they say "technically" when technically it can go either way, and this makes them look very petty.
Technically?
Technically, it is NOT a preloaded app, as that EXACT APPLICATION does NOT come preloaded! Technically, even if it is REPLACING a preloaded app, that app in and of itself, is NOT preloaded, so technically, at&t is full of CRAP.
Honestly, they just keep getting worse, and worse, and worse.
Re: Good!!!
When I was in Hawaii (I think it was Hawaii, defiantely somewhere tropical)
They had an AWESOME idea to make cell towers camoflauged (sp?), so that they can be in plain sight, and you would never know it is actuially a cell tower. I remember seeing one that was pretty much a synthetic palm tree, and I saw another one that was a Cactus, and there was no way to tell unless you were staring directly at them or ...
Re: What about killing off 2G???. . .
No news, no progress. T-Mobile has refarmed a large amount of the 2G spectrum... but not all of it, and the 2G network does, and will remain active for the forseeable future, with no plans to have it shut down. Every single indication I've got from what I've read is that no, it will not be shut down, it has been minimalized, but no plans at all to shut it down.
Re: wrong thread
Dude, go for Music Unlimited, by Sony.
I use it, great service, tonnes of songs, loads nice and quick, and the song quality is awesome, and the in-app search engine to find songs is second to none.
In Australia they do
If you are convicted of drunk driving in Australia, you get a nice bright pink license plate.
Re: Sarcasm?
All I can say to that is that the difference in price between those plans which previously offered subsidized handsets, and the current ones that do not is pretty substantial. Non-subsidized rate plans for a family plan cost at least $20.00 per month less, most of the data feature costs are cut in half,as are text messaging features.
On an account with 5 lines, all of them unlimited talk + text + data, that can mean a $60 ...
Re: Teen's are by far not the only offenders!
I almost had a car drive head-on into me when I was turning into a drive way one day. Idiot woman driver had a cell phone up in her face. I don't care, I drove up to within an inch or her car and forced her to reverse to get out of my way... where am I, England? (Note, I am not in England), and I proceeded to give her an earful when she went around me. ...
Re: Better late than never I suppose,
I was surprised too. Usually, as far as business and business customers go, which Verizon and Sprint have lots of, BB phones are the only way to go.
For me working with T-mobile business customers, they are either ordering a Blackberry, or a GS3/GS4, usually no other phones are even considered, and yeah, T-Mobile did the same thing, ran out of stock for the BB 9900 mighty quick just before the Z10 came out. However, do ...
Re: Haha, nice campaign name!
:lol:
my thoughts exactly! Also, as far as I am concerned, high schoolers do not need cell phones either. I got through high school JUST FINE without one! Technology has got us these days, got us in it's grasp. You want your kid to have a cell phone so you can "stay in touch" with them? How about you be an actual PARENT to your kids, like in the good old days! "My ...
Re: What a shame
Even on a smartphone... keep the number in your contact list, it's faster to send a text than it is to open a browser, go to a page, and enter a search.
Re: ROFL
With the GS4, you get way more phone. The GS4's price is justified.... the iPhone's is not, definately not.
Sarcasm?
I really can't tell if that is sarcasm or not...
However, if it is, you do know, that based on the previous contract plans, and the current no-contract value plans, even if you paid full price for a device, like $600.00, after the traditional 2 year, (24 months) you end up saving hundreds of dollars on the new plans, right?
Do the math yourself if you don't believe me, the savings add up to be hundreds of dollars.
Re: fixed that for you
and your evidence that apple is not a despicable and sneaky company is where.... ? /;|
Re: Haha, nice campaign name!
Yeah, they would never do that. They would never tell anybody, as a cell phone carrier, that cell phones are not needed, seems counter productive to their main line of business.
However, you're right. The year I was born in, 1985, cell phones, facebook, the internet, none of it existed really, and yet people seemed to get by just fine!
It's correct
They defintaely changed the price.
The website says they did, check:
http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/phones /Cell-Phone-Detail.aspx?cell-phone=Apple-iPho ne-5-Black-16GB
Also, I checked my upgrade tool, and yes, it is now listed as being $149.99 downpayment, $20.00 per month.
Haha, nice campaign name!
Targeting teens with a campaign called "It can wait" ?
yeah, of course nothing else comes to mind when I see that title... nothing at all! :paranoid:
Re: Lame.
LOL!!! :lol: Nice one...
I'm over apple. Way over them. There are better devices out there that cost less, and I would really rather give my money to a company that isn't pure evil.
Re: WOW
Its funny that you mention that, the french person was a french canadian, so there ya go! It got the accent perfect.. can it understand slang terms? I don't know, didn't really try any slang only proper words.
Re: Android source code.
I don't see why overseas acquisitions would matter. I was refering to Apple and it's impact in North America, not outside of that continent.
Also, yeah. T-bone is 100% right, they have lost huge market share, and the company is valued less today than it had been previously, and I see that trend continuing.
Re: WOW
I've used it with French, with somebody who has a french accent, and it worked, not only that, the person could understand perfectly what the device was saying as well. I've read that it has been designed to work properly with an accent, which is a crazy feature. I've had no problems with this app, it's worked perfectly whenever I've used it.
Battery Killer
Google earth seems to murder the battery on any device I use it on, Android or iOS. When I launch it on my laptop, the voltage use increases drastically. I don't know what it is about this app, sometimes just thinking about launching it seems to lower my battery as well.
Re: Android source code.
If the market continues the way it has been going, that will change. Google's stock price has increased Significantly since last year while Apple's has not. Clearly google is gaining huge ground, and apple is not, and hopefully things continue this way.
Re: Windows 8 on Nokia hardware DOES rock.
I had a chance to try out the Lumia 810 and the HTC Windows phone 8X before we began selling them, and they are top of the line solid devices. The build quality specifically of the nokia was through the roof, everything about the phone screamed "amazing". Feels good in your hand, solid, high-build quality as we have come to expect from Nokia.
Re: Umm,...where is ISIS?...
You're right, this doesn't actuially give you ISIS, it simply updates it if you already have it installed.
""This update improves the Visual Voicemail app and includes ISIS app improvements.""
Re: Do it in house like Verizon
Hah, good point.
However, there is an old saying.
If you want something done right, you've got to do it yourself.
Re: Didn't take long
I was waiting for somebody else to mention this, so I could reply and say I agree.
I agree! Seems they always have some kind of scapegoat to blame their problems on, no matter what they are, no matter when they happen.
Re: Three questions, anyone know?
As far as I understand power saver mode not only dims the screen, but it also increases the amount of time between syncs, it lowers the screen timeout, it makes wifi and some other radios go to sleep when not in direct use also, im pretty sure that unless you have this set specifically, it also disables vibration in the device, maybe a few other things.
Your other questions in your previous post? I have no idea, ...
Ideal for everything
Sounds like this processor would be ideal for everything! Smaller, more powerfull, less power consumption, isn't that what any processor would aim to be? I look forward to seeing 3D architecture in all computers very very soon.
Re: It's funny...
It already has, this is the first time that T-Mobile is actually adding customers like in the last two years. Their market share is increasing. I'm not talking about taking over MPCS, I'm talking about people actuially changing to T-Mobile.
what they are doing is working.
Re: It's funny...
Nice, its good to hear samsung is making a high-quality product in the galaxy S 4. No matter what you have on your phone, though, the best defense is never dropping it. Don't even test it.
One of my buddies had an iPhone 4, he was getting an otterbox for his girlfriend. Put it on the phone, rep at store told him this would protect it from any / all drops. So, my very dumb friend decided to ...
