I dont buy too much for myself. Even after shipping a 124 crate of souvenirs from cali for family n friends, I think i came out with a necklace, and about 2500 pix lol.
So spurned by the detiorating condition of me ole Nextel i730, and a recent comedians recent stand up jest at a local club of "If you still have an antenna on your phone, you just need to kill your damn self", topped off by my daughters prodding of "Dad....please do somethng about that....thing".....I have finally remedied the situation.
Of course if Im gonna do somethng, Im not gonna mess around. So using fathers day as an excuse, I got the HTC EVO, touted as the fastest device on the market (this week), and also the very first 4G device.
Im still working out the features, but apparently this is also the first live braodcast capable device, as it has both a camera and webeye. This would have been great on my travels, or even at the festival this past week, where I could have broadcast a few songs of the band reunion for my kid who couldnt make it this year, as she grew up with all these guys as makeshift uncles, and of course any others interested.
This thing is lightning fast and havent been able to bog it thus far. It loads youtube vids with ease, and runs the satelite radio aps without a hiccup. Im really liking the build my own station features based on genre or artist.
Its also the first HDMI out phone I think, in other words it can be used as a display device out to a full monitor or flat screen tv.
It even has kickstand! lol
Anyway, Im all modernized now, so all my r/l friends that joked my old dinosaur can suk it! :P
