The Incredible Sword swallower!!!


As a man who makes his living as a performer of the incredible, i need an incredible phone to keep up with me, and help me keep on top of my incredible life.

My name is Dai Andrews and i am a professional Sword swallower, Escape artist, and performer of Incredible feats. You can find out more about me on my website at Dai Andrews - Sword swallowing, escape artistry, mind over body

If i win the Droid Incredible I will use it to impress potential clients by showing video of me swallowing swords and setting the Guinness world record for "largest curve in a sword swallowed" on Youtube. YouTube - 120 Degree sword swallowing world record - Dai Andrews

If they don't believe me, i will swallow a sword for them as they follow along while watching this X-ray video: YouTube - Sword swallowing X Ray - 90 degree curve - Dai Andrews

Then i will head over to the android marketplace and download the Metal Detector app, next I will swallow a sword again and let my audience use the metal detector app to prove that the sword is actually inside me, like in this video: YouTube - Promo - Dai Andrews (starting at about 2:15 into the video).

After booking the gig, i will use my new Droid Incredible as my mobile office. I am my own agent, and I'm always on the road so I will make full use of productivity and communication apps to keep myself organized, stay in touch with clients, and keep track of my travel plans.

While I'm on the road, i will use apps like Lastfm, Jinzora, and Subsonic to stream music to my phone or perhaps instead I'll choose an audio book or podcast to keep me entertained at the airport.

On the plane I will put my Droid incredible into Airplane mode and pass the time playing old school video games using the emulators I downloaded from the marketplace.

After my plane lands, I'll use Google maps to give me turn by turn directions to the venue, my hotel, and maybe even do some sight seeing along the way, making use of Layer and Google goggles to enhance my experience. I will be sure to take lots of great pictures using the 8mp camera.

During my performance I'll set up the video camera built in my Droid Incredible to film my performance so I can review it afterwords and continue to improve my show. Or maybe I'll use my Incredible in my show by downloading a stopwatch app to time myself escaping from a straitjacket or some handcuffs.

After the show I'll use Yelp's app to find a great place to eat late at night and then head back to my hotel (booked online using my Droid Incredible) At my Hotel I'll hook my Incredible up to my TV and watch a movie before calling my girlfriend (oh, yea, it's a phone too!) to say goodnight, (but not before setting a wake up alarm on my Incredible).

I will do all of this and more! With an Incredible at my side there is no limit to the feats I will accomplish!!!

Without the Incredible...

all is lost...

no client...

no show...

no girl...

no money...

Can I crash on your couch for a few days????

 

[TRIumph]

incredible feat B:

I will be incredibly redeemed from buyers remorse and receive an incredible 2nd chance for purchasing a blackberry storm 2 when I could have purchased either model of Droid Verizon carried...

 

[TRIumph]

incredible feat C:

I will become a super hero because I will be able to do incredibly super advanced things that only trekkies could even imagine of doing...all because I carry the most incredible gadget in US cellular history!!!

 

[Joelist]

Here are some of the Incredible things I will do (from the perspective of more of a business user coming off of BB):

1) Find and install the apps so that I only need a single phone. I want my work and home emails/calendars on the same phone (it sounds like I can use Moonrug to do it).

2) Take advantage of the speed of the Incredible to have documents open for editing at the same time I am working my emails and using IM.

3) Take advantage of the higher resolution display to get more work done, as it makes using the phone WAY easier on the eyes.

4) Take advantage of the outstanding video to use the Incredible to watch movies and shows while traveling with NO STUTTERING.

5) Show the incredible to other BB users in my company to get them to switch.

 

[Angel_Shooter]

What I will do with the Incredible:

I will use the Google Sky Maps app to locate the nearest alien satellite that has a high intensity laser beam on it to beam down and burn my BB Curve into molten metal and plastic particles.

Seriously tho - I plan on:
•Call all of my friends that have IPhones and talk to them...at least for a couple of minutes until their phones drop the connection!

•really start using Google Voice to it's full advantage

•taking awesome pictures & video of my grandson with it so I can upload to Flickr so the rest of the family can see them.

•listening to my music and watching my movies that I currently have on Itunes

•using the voice navigation when I'm on business travel and not having to take my Garmin...also not having to replace my Garmin (or update the maps) now is a big plus and $ savings!

•using the sweet pinch/zoom MT in the browser on that sweet AMOLED Screen...hate the small screen on my curve...

 

[Go Android!]

Well i'm actually Mr. Incredible from The Incredibles. I just go by Andrew so people don't freak out when they see how Incredible I am. First of all, that phone was designed with me in mind. Why do you think the back is red, cause I, Mr. Incredible, am red. So I decided to go out to Taiwan and asked HTC if I could get one of these purty Incredible devices. They freaked out and called security on me, I guess my movie never came out in Taiwan.

Now let me stop talking about how Incredible i am and about this phone. With this phone i can take Incredible pictures of myself with the Incredible 8MP camera. I can go on Wikipedia and look up my article, I can post Facebook and Twitter status updates saying just how Incredible i am with the Friendstream app. Also, with the HTC Incredible I'll also be on the Big Red, not me, but the Incredible Verizon network.

You might be thinking "alright stop talking about yourself", but you're probably not since i'm so Incredible. But Elastagirl (Mrs.Incredible) is stretching in ways i just can't resist so I have to take care of some business.

 

[Very INCREDIBLE]

an incredible feat i will do with my incredible is sell my current phone moto droid on ebay with the ebay app and give all my earning to church.

 

[DontEatPoop]

I would use it's text to speech to make it talk dirty to me. I know deep down inside it's a dirty little piece of technology.

Then I'll buy it a leather case then whip it.. Calling it a dirty dirty phone..

Then if it starts talking by it'self telling me to take nude pics of Barbra Streisand with it's incredible 8 mp camera. I'll just throw up in my mouth and pretend I never heard it..

This phone is going to Kick Ass. It is going to have more firepower than Iron Man and War Machine combined in Iron Man 2. I want to be on The A Team of awesome phones. I don't want to be with The Losers. This is why I want this phone so badly..

1 Ghz Processor - faster than a speeding arrow from Robin Hood.
8 GB Memory- Lots of apps, pics, video, music for Grown Ups like me
Android 2.1- Live Wallpaper, Google Navigation, 3D Gallery for all of the android Predators like me
HTC Sense- HTC's awesome UI that even The Air Bender can't handle
8 mp Camera w/ auto focus and video capture- Sharp pics and cool videos to view upcoming movies like A Nightmare on Elm Street and Salt
Over 30,000 apps- More toys than The Expendables and Toy Story 3 combined

The Inception of this phone into my life will be an incredible experience.
I need a great phone that lasts for a long time like Shrek Forever After.

PLEASE, GIVE ME THE INCREDIBLE!!!!!

 

[j32driver]

For 12 months, I've been listening to my wife tell me how much more INCREDIBLE her Eris is than my Winmo Omnia.

If you give me the Droid Incredible, I will shut my wife up for AT LEAST 12 months!!!! Please, for the love of all that is holy... allow the Tech Gods to award me this ONE, SMALL, VICTORY!

What better way to get married than to throw the Droid Incredible into the mix! Not only do you get a sweet phone from world-renowned HTC, but you also get a totally solid network straight from Verizon! Bring that baby to the ceremony and whip it out just in case those vows slip your mind at the last minute. In fact, just toss one to the minister and let him run the ceremony straight off Google servers--performing one Incredible ceremony like never before! Years later, you can look back and tell your kids, "wow, was that ever one Incredible wedding!!!"

 

[bespinct]

What incredible feats are in store for me?

My Blackberry Tour will be proven to be incredibly cumbersome! Scroll ball? How incredibly archaic? Physical keyoboard? How incredibly 1990s? Lack of Wi-Fi? How incredibly near sited! Blackberry Browser? How incredibly slow! Screen size? How incredibly small! Social networking? What an incredible afterthought! Blackberry themes? How incredibly lame! The Tour camera? Kick-ass, but not incredibly kick-ass! Blackberry LED Flashlight App? Incredibly, it must be purchased! Battery pulls? Incredibly annoying!

Social networking, here I come! Incredibly, I have been a Facebook user for more than two years with less than a dozen posts. The Incredible, will do the incredible and make the mobile Facebook (and more social networking) incredible. I will be able to share incredible photos of my incredible 2yr old daughter with my incredible family(yes, my brother too). Incredible tweets by incredible editors and moderators? I will follow their incredibleness! Photo blogs? Mine might just have to be incredible!

The HTC Droid Incredible, might just take my life from happily credible, to enthusiastically incredible!

Steve

PS If only I could work "The Incredible Edible Egg" somewhere into the post! In any case, the Incredible would save me from getting Egg on my face when arguing with iPhone users!

 

[HardcorePooka]

What incredible thing would I be able to accomplish...

I think the most "incredible" thing this would help me accomplish would be switching off my BlackBerry. I've really wanted to get on the Android train for a while now but my complete lack of money has kept me with my same old BlackBerry. Anywho... I'm pretty sure just using this phone would be pretty darn incredible.

 

[gordo0427]

I will seriously send in a video of my smashing my storm with a hammer or destroy it in any way the readers want if you pick me to win this phone. PLEASE. Thanks!

 

[WickedDirtBag]

Kick the Habit

With this INCREDIBLE piece of hardware and INCREDIBLE software backin it up. I will finally be able to stop dreaming of owning an Iphone and Drop my Blackberry Storm 2 off the highest building I can find. And finally I can cure my addiction to Crackberry! Maybe... One Day at a Time!!!!

 

[saberry]

Incredible

I would send the most incredible emails I ever had to help my own sanity:

"Goodbye AT&T"

"Goodbye RIM"

Sent from my Droid.

 

[toramorigan]

If I were to win an HTC incredible, I'd be able to see just how incredibly low I'll keep my credit cards from not having to buy it, and use that money towards that incredibly horrid ETF I'll receive from T-Mobile when I switch onto my mother's family plan. :]

Not to mention be able to receive and respond to my Japanese friends' e-mails instead of dealing with a glitchy G1 that likes to force close on me when I used Simeji :O

 

[bman12479]

Hey guys what I hope to accomplish with the Incredible is everything that I currently cannot accomplish with my LG Voyager. Things like opening up full web pages at fast speeds, using a lot of really cool new apps, taking pictures in the dark because I finally have a flash (and 2 flashes at that) ! Also something I am really psyched about and just found out about it a few hours ago is that I will be able to listen to my favorate radio station, BPM on Sirius through the new Sirius app on my Motorola Stereo Bluetooth headset !!!That will be so cool. O and I also want to conquer using a touch screen keyboard full time as I am an avid texter and currently have a physical keyboard. I may even use it on my laptop as a broadband source if I go away this summer !!There are just so many things I cannot wait to accomplish I just know I am really going to enjoy this phone I love Verizon I am 31 and have had them since I was 18 (when they were Bell Atlantic Mobile) and just love how this phone is bringing them to the next level !!

Contest Entry

I would like to win the Incredible so I can finally enter the smartphone realm. I am truly impressed by the Incredible's features, speed, and the beautiful sense UI to integrate all the features into one usable extension of my brain. Maybe I dramatized my feelings a little too much, but I am truly excited about this phone, and the opportunity to win this phone.

Thanks,
--ONoff
