  • Great podcast, thanks! Posted via Android Central App
  • I've noticed Phil's voice goes to a very high pitch when he gets excited. Posted via Android Central App
  • Phil reacts to gadgets like I react to puppies... and gadgets.
  • For children on the internet, I recommend OpenDNS FamilyShield: http://blog.opendns.com/2010/06/23/introducing-familyshield-parental-con...
  • you going to chicago for a 360 preview?
  • How come Jerry didn't say anything about the G3? I'm sure he has plenty of interesting thoughts to share, despite perhaps not having the device in hands yet.
  • I'm trying not to say or think too much until i get one in my hands. Half of me thinks this could be the best phone of 2014. The other half of me has concerns about the ram allocation at start-up — especially here in the US where we have so many radio bands active. I'll have plenty to say when AT&T or T-Mobile have one for me to monkey with :)
  • Thanks Jerry. At&t or T-mobile, do as the man says! Posted via Android Central App

  • If he is going to chicago he must be going to Motorola and get his own moto 360 like josh topolsky. Its ok NDA
