    US release date could be July 12th!

    Which is still mid-July, what they promised all along. But why even bother taking pre-orders when you ship to stores first? <sigh>

    US release date could be July 12th!

    About an hour ago, I sent a very politely-worded email to Google's customer service asking to please have the shipping portion of my Nexus 7 purchase refunded to me. I fully expect it to be ignored or form-responded with no money back to me, but you never know until you try.

    Verizon car dock + HTC car charger?

    For Fathers' Day, the misses bought me an HTC-branded, Tessco-manufactured car charger. 99H10129-00 is its model number, and it appears to be a 2A charger. I assume they mean 1A to each USB port, otherwise that's just crazy. Anyone know if it is safe or feasible to use this with the Verizon...

    Time is all most up - who's keeping - who's not?

    Tempest in a teapot, this. Battery and crapware will be remedied greatly once CM7 and some other custom ROMs are available. That or an extended battery for the non-technical crowd. And I personally have found 0 bugs that can be attributed to the Thunderbolt itself. I am lucky to not have the...

    CyanogenMod 7 for Thunderbolt

    THIS. What they are trying to do, in the words of Michio Kaku, is like learning how a piano works by throwing it down a flight of stairs and listening to all the tinkling sounds it makes. You infer and you break things and you learn little by little. It is a very iterative, tentative process...

    There's a storm brewing...

    To get my company's discount for my wife's new iPhone, I had to either show a company ID or bring in a pay stub. Luckily, I printed one out from online at the VZW store. A pay stub, not a badge.

    Couldn't have said it better myself. It's just too bad the rent is too damn high everywhere, ya know? :p
