    Android 14 tomorrow?

    So far so good...only thing I've had time to dig into was lock screen since I downloaded and installed while at work this morning. Just changed up the clock for a fresh look.

    I was really looking forward to my $1.78. Already had it spent, in fact. Now I'm going to have to rework my budget. Also, 14 is downloading to my 7 right now. Finally.

    Android 14 tomorrow?

    add me to the list...Google Store Pixel 7, TMo...no Android 14. Which, if that's the worst thing that happens to me this week I'm doing ok. But it is funny how when we KNOW something is out there but we CAN'T have it, it makes us want it even more

    Trade in values from 2022

    I forget how much I got through TMO and Samsung for my Pixel 5 but it was a ridiculously awesome amount (bill credits over 2 years), similar to the Verizon amounts posted above. So cross your fingers, wait and see. My son got an amazing trade in amount on his pixel 5 for the Fold 4, so if...
