As usual with Google, I like the concept and the Cr-48 is built like a tank, but the hardware is underpowered for what you are trying to do. YouTube, even on a fast connection is impossible. The Samsung and Acer versions run on dual core Atom processors, but from what I've seen, this doesn't increase the performance to new heights. Oh well, if they ever can put ChromeOS on something with more oommpf, I would be all in because I really liked it.

Oh, wait! You're supposed to use your Blackberry to tether with. Will Blackberry offer a bundle? Buy a Torch 2 and a PlayBook for one price and get one data plan? There seems to be no sales model for this thing announced because no one has told us when they are coming out. I am sure developers are as confused as Balsillie; do I write an Android app, an AIR app or use the SDK and write a native app? I also agree that they are beta testing these things on the backs of the users. The only other compelling tablet is the HP TouchPad because it works on a truly scalable mobile OS that is in the wild today, there just aren't any apps for it.

I am convinced they won't or will wait until the Galaxy 4G is out before they do anything about it.

Lovin' it.

Anyone who says they know, doesn't know.

Clearly, my Samsung Fascinate could have Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) because it specs out almost exactly the same as the Nexus S, Samsung's Android reference phone. However, the Fascinate is controlled by Verizon, and there is still no official update to Android 2.2 being pushed out. The iPhone 4 has no such carrier restrictions. Yay.

This is now, to me anyway, clearly the best Android offering on Verizon. Samsung has added some neat copy/paste features and the ability to take a screenshot on the phone without jumping thru hoops. Good update, hopefully, the folks that aren't interested in rooting will get the OTA update soon.

They were just loading up more and more space and I don't use them. I managed to recover about 1.2 GB of space and now I should be able to post again. I may have personal site emails activated again if I can get more space, but for now, my personal GMail is sufficient.

They called themselves teabaggers, hung tea bags from hats and posters, etc. Here's a proposal; I'll stop calling them teabggers when they stop calling health care reform "Obamacare."
