    Lte 4g eta

    All the B&M'ing aside, I'd really like to see Moto/VZW/Google get this resolved, simply because the longer it takes the less creative competition there is in the tablet world, and only competition will keep things moving forward. Anger is understandable but ultimately it isn't commercially...

    Phone issues - Verizon is substituting on Fascinate returns

    I apologize if I've lost track of the issue, but wasn't there a theory that swapping ESNs would be as good as a DMU reset? - or did that get proven not to work as well as the DMU reset?

    Ipad2 or xoom?

    I still submit that the great gulf is not iOS vs. Android or Samsung vs. Moto vs. Asus but tab vs. no tab. All of these are early stage products. None is perfect. All will get better. Jump in and start using one. You probably won't go back.

    I hate to be blunt, but that is not standard business-speak. You're just wrong on this. It's ok to admit it...

    Lte 4g eta

    Last time I looked at the stats, more than two thirds of US public companies were on a 12/31 fiscal year in which Q1 runs 1/1-3/31, Q2 runs 4/1-6/30, etc. If they say "before the end of the second quarter," they mean on or before June 30. Moto is on a 12/31 fiscal year but has moving quarter...

    Lte 4g eta

    Between the Gen 2 Xoom now starting to show up on the DEW radar and the persistent rumors about the Tegra 2 being somehow incompatible with the LTE chipset, I would not be optimistic about this. That would be a very unfortunate result, since the Xoom was explicitly sold with the promise of an...

    Movies on XOOM

    I've used a bunch of different programs to do this. DVD Catalyst 4 is hands-down the best and fastest, and last I checked it was only $10, which was a great deal for software this good.

    Ipad2 or xoom?

    Had both, liked both, kept the iPad. Realize that these are all early stage products and whichever you buy is likely to start feeling obsolete by the end of the year, even though in real life it will probably function fine.

    Android tablets could outsell iPad in 3 years

    Also, three years in the tech world, especially in this brand new market segment, is an ETERNITY. :)

    3G fails, ESN swaps and other placebos

    Interesting. I don't have anything to add other than the fact that (as you know) these phones are actually (among other things) miniature radios, and performance of a given model from phone to phone can be fairly inconsistent for various reasons. When you add what seems to be somewhat...

    Should I Get the Xoom vs. the iPad? Why or why not?

    I have owned both, and still have the iPad2. I have been a dyed in the wool PC person since IBM introduced the first PC, and there's a lot about the Android environment that I really prefer. However, for what I wanted, right now, the iPad2 works a lot better. None of these tablets is really a...
