The only other thing would be speeding WIMAX up to some crazy ass speed

i think they could spin that one into making "the impossible possible" - "you thought that internet on your phone could never be be faster than your cable modem???" or some such.

although you'd think it's impossible to keep such a speed jump under wraps.

I KNOW!!  I'm so excited….

I'm working on three predictions right now:

(1) First 4G tablet?
(2) First Windows Phone 7 with 4G?
(3) Simply Everything Plan at $69.99 will include unlimited minutes to go with unlimited text and data?

The hot rumor over the weekend was that it will be the first 3D screen on a phone, possibly by HTC.

I'm still going with 4G Tablet with dual core processor and Honeycomb, probably by Samsung.

hypothetically speaking:

person X and person Y have recently started dating and things are going quite well between them.  late one night, X calls Y and says "help, i'm in a bar and i've had too much to drink.  please come get me."  Y thinks "well this is a little weird and a tad awkward, but i'm not going to abandon my new friend" and hops in the car to go pick up drunk X.  upon entering the bar, X's friends confirm that things have gotten a little sloppy and Y probably should help X get home (X shouldn't and probably couldn't get home on their own).  just as they pull up to X's apartment, X remembers that the friends at the bar took away X's keys to prevent any drunken attempts at driving home.  thus, X is locked out of the apartment and it's too late and too far to go back to the bar.  Y draws the logical conclusion: "uh, i guess this means you wanna crash at my place, huh?" 

best move ever?

so i was playing with the epic 4g today.  i think i like it over the touch screen whackberry.  anybody else play with it?

I will agree that this was an extremely effective move, though X probably shouldn't have waited until she got to her apartment to tell Y that she didn't have her keys.

I'm also going to correct an important fact:  X's friends didn't take away X's keys - X gave them the keys.  To say this was an extremely well thought out plan would be an understatement.

I own it - best phone I've ever had.  I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.

there you go, ruining my hypotheticals…

Was there anything else discussed last night that I need to be concerned about because it's a bit of a blur to me?

Also, Y would like to point out for the record that "it wasn't a move!!" - you know, hypothetically speaking.  I'm with you on this one - best move ever.

just seems needlessly complex

I have visions of The Director popping out of a cake at Centerfolds tonight, just so you know.

The Epic will be almost a year old at that point.  I would not be thinking too hard about getting the Epic at that point.  Wait until Sprint makes their announcement next month and the Mobile World Conference where all the cool new shit will be displayed.

I think I'll pass.

Turns out that starting a dance party during Katy Perry's "Teenage Dream" at a gentleman's club is frowned upon by the establishment.  I still think it was the highlight of the night for Lexi and Danica…sure was for me.
