FakePlasticTree just replied to your comment:
Is the 3GS still terrible? I have a 2G iPhone and honestly, as a phone, it’s one of the worst I’ve ever had. Granted I jailbroke and unlocked it as Rogers wasn’t support the iPhone at that time. Hell the shitty Nokia I had way back in high school had better reception and call quality than my 2G iPhone. I’m on a Curve 8900 right now but I’m not big on it anymore. I’m just tired of the Blackberry OS. It’s an excellent phone, great quality and reception, but the OS feels antiquated. I was thinking of going back to the iPhone (which will probably be the 4G model by the time my contract expires) but I haven’t heard if the actual phone part has gotten any better since the 2G days.

Thanks,

It’s a little better but it’s still the same iPhone experience but with a COMPASS.
The call quality is horrible. I don’t make a lot of calls on my 3GS but I’ve had it cut out numerous times for no reason. At one point I had to call the person back on my Bold.
I’d wait and see what the announcement is going to be later this week but I can’t imagine it’s going to be anything ground breaking. oooh multi-tasking! Gasp! Every other smart phone does that already.
I didn’t finish the live stream so this will be nice.
What time do these live streams start?
December already eh?
lol judging by the date of the podcast this will be AMAZING!!
One. At. A. Time. @
God bless you Ana for trying to keep everyone on task.
Kristen rules.
And for a pilot’s perspective on the stupid shit non-pilots believe about flying (e.g., “the planes land themselves”) try this:
Thanks for another CES podcast!
Oh my god, another cast and this time with Whitta. Yay for CESPoolcasts, it’s like I’ve died and gone to heaven!
Any more hard to understand, tangential Normtales again this time?
Edits:
– Gary’s insistence on using phrases like “dope” and “pimp suit” amuses me greatly. Must be the accent.
– IMAGINE A WORLD!
I agree!
I love you guys, but this was borderline unlistenable.
Gotta cut down on the crosstalk and/or alcohol.
Im going to hunt the stream for that in video form ^^
10000% agreed
I want shirts that say,
“Dinty Moore–the actress”
“I got DP’d by Samsung.”
I loved Norms story from the previous podcast.
Yeah, I hate to quit the stream last night for that and the meandering discussion. Love you guys, happy that you’re having a great time, impressed by your hotel room. But take some tips from Ryan on how to keep a rowdy crowd on topic and coherent, please.
Just watch the recorded livestream here: http://www.justin.tv/tested it’s much easier to tell what’s going on.
I’m not sure it seems like 12:00 am Central time.
A marked improvement over last night’s podcast. God bless you, Ana, for keeping things on track.
Edit: OMG, I am in fits of laughter over Gary’s passion for the unbastardised Star Wars original trilogy. 😀
GARY WHITTA RAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEEE.
