Hey... they'll give me a whole $8 for my BB Storm! In fairness, that's probably overpriced...

I haven't found a concise explanation of what is possible with SIP technology. Does that mean you can use your home network to make/receive calls over IP from/to your Verizon number? Or is it just a separate VoIP?

I'm not going to engage you in arguing over the meaning of "meaningless." I merely echoed your word to describe the argument that the resolution is unchanged by the use of pentile. By your own logic, that argument has some amount of meaning and is not meaningless. The screen is a "tool of use,"...

Except that displays are viewed by human beings. If most people cannot distinguish between two pixels on a particular screen at a particular distance, and partially combining them does not change the visual experience, then what is "meaningless" is arguing that one shows less detail than...

It does, or can, have meaning. In a RGB stripe configuration, adjacent sub-pixels will appear to the eye as a combination of the two colors. The same way you combine the colors of the sub-pixels visually to see a pixel, and at a sufficient distance, combine groups of pixels into a block. The...

Sharing sub-pixels means that, yes, you lose some accuracy in the color representation of adjacent pixels. However, that loss of accuracy may not be perceptible to you given the distance from your eye and the amount of difference. The resolution has not changed, however.

On full brightness, it is only visible in mid-tone grays. Maybe I'll head on over to the Verizon store and compare.

It does it anytime, on any screen. Not just viewing images. It is most pronounced when viewing light colors, such as when browsing this forum. It looks like cross hatching.

I think this is similar to what some other users have reported about lines in their screens. When viewing the screen dimmed in low light, all colors seem to have a texture behind them, sort of like an "old paper" sort of pattern. There are faint lines running horizontally and vertically. At full...

If they send it back and you sell it on eBay, be sure to list it as a "minor screen defect" and not as a "crack." As long as you take pictures showing the area of the defect from multiple angles, a potential buyer will get a better idea of what they are bidding on.

Yeah, I definitely don't want to spend $250 on a phone so that I look like even more of a dork than I do already. Maybe this won't be the phone for me if there is no way to reinforce it for ordinary carrying. Too bad.

I keep my phone in my front pocket. There's no way I'm going to use a holster. After reading this thread, I am worried. I am hoping there is a case that is both thin and prevents torsion. The otter boxes just seem too bulky, and one of the reasons I wanted the nexus over the rezound was to have...

You're not arguing in good faith. I asked you to "show me," so you posted the online policy. I pointed out that the online policy was not what you were arguing, but treated it as though it were representative. Now you want to say that it isn't. 1) The online policy says "subsequent purchases."...

Two problems. First: your link is to a Best Buy web page, not to an actual receipt, which is what you have been holding to be the contract between the customer and the store. Second problem: Your quote states that "Based on return/exchange patterns, some customers will be warned that subsequent...

Show me. I haven't made a purchase at Best Buy for over a year, so show me a receipt that "clearly spell[s] out" the policy. I think you're making things up. And yes, one does have recourse, as has been explained ad nauseam: the credit card company. The recourse may or may not be successful...
