Shortcut To Google Now

[LegalAmerican]

At what point did I EVER say I was any different than anyone else? But I do use my phone as much for work as ANYTHING else. I was merely pointing out the obvious Mr. High and Mighty.

Clearly I'm not "high and mighty". Cause YOU use your phone for work while I use it mostly for entertainment. I'm practically a nobody. And you insinuate you're different from everyone else when you make comments about how silly it is that some people don't use their smartphone to hammer in nails at the construction site.

But mostly, i was just using your comments to refer to a massive group of people on here that all make similar statements.

Some jobs don't require a smartphone. But that doesn't mean we can't carry them for other purposes. (travel navigation, Internet access for trip planning, email access on the go, etc...)

Just cause the phone isn't used as a screwdriver doesn't mean we just play angry birds all day.

No need to defend toys. Everybody likes toys. That said, I use my phone for work probably as much as the next guy. However, I fail to see anything in JB that would make my phone more productive for work compared to how it works with ICS.

Personally, I?m on the fence as to even bothering to update my phone from where it is now (ICS.)

Honestly, updating it to JB seems to really only be a benefit to people that want to say they have a phone running JB.

Great shortcut for Google now. For me jb is worth having just for Google now.

I'm using Nova Launcher and have the home key set to open Google Now. Running Holo Locker too which gives you the same ability to open Google Now by pushing up as stock JB

Doesn't JB give the phone Global Phone capability? I was under the impression that without JB, the S3 could not function as a global phone. This would definitely be a business plus to me.

I spent 2.5 months marooned on a deserted island...ok, it wasn't deserted, but it only had a GSM network, so it FELT like it was a deserted island to my Palm Pre+ on Verizon. And, OK, I wasn't really marooned. I was 'assigned'.

I realized that I could assign a gesture to Google Now on Nova so if I swipe up on the home screen Google Now pops up. Much better solution for me!
