No thanks.

Who the **** are you?

I'm interested to hear more since I have an android phone now and
would like to hear the reaction to the newest entry.

There are groups for that, asshole. Go find one.

Been boating lately?


Just shut the **** up, "Larry."

Ooooo. Tough guy.

Perfectly appropriate for one of the right-wing regulars here with
nothing between the ears. They're trying to "remake" rec.boats in their
own image...

Do you use GPS in your auto? Does the Incredible have a car dock? The
Droid has a car dock and the Google Nav service is pretty amazing. The
only thing missing is SOG which isn't a big deal but fun to compare to
the speedometer.

Google voice search is pretty amazing too. Accuracy is way up there.

With as good as this technology is getting, voice transcription is
damned near usable for writing but it's certainly a paradigm leap.

I used the GPS on Saturday while driving to Bethesda to the Greek
festival. I already knew the route, and the phone not only showed the
same route, but vocalized it, too.

I believe there either is a car dock, or one is coming.

I like the fact that you can set up several "home pages" on the
incredible. My "second" home page has some interesting apps that wither
were included with the phone or were downloaded. My main home page is
uncluttered.

The touch screen is very sensitive and takes getting used to before you
can use it smoothly and without error.

I don't know it compare to the Incredible, but the Nexus in just too
dainty for me. I feel like it's going to pop out of my hands when
I've held it. The Droid is on the other end of the spectrum. A metal
brick that's on the verge of too dense.

I actually prefer the video keyboard but use both. The physical
keyboard doesn't have the word suggestions for when your fingers go
awry. I like that feature since it's a lot easier to hit the right
word than backspace and retype.

There's a ton of cool programs, most of them are tweaks but a few
really are productivity enhancing.

These things are getting so powerful, they're really on the verge of
becoming full featured miniature computers. Someday there'll be a
monitor and keyboard port and it'll be fighting for your laptop
dollars.

I put a bumpy skin cover on mine, and a screen protector on the front.
It gives the phone a heftier feel.
