it looks pretty lame. I'll stick with the much better quality of the EVO 3D.

            "The Vega Racer is based on the same chipset as the HTC EVO 3D - Snapdragon MSM8660, but due to the overclocked 1.5GHz CPU should be even speedier."

            And the 2.0GHz dual-core phones will be so fast that actions would be executed before you touch the screen. :D

            But 2.0GHz quad-core phones will be so fast that you would only need to put them out of your pocket and they will start executing commands with your thoughts. :D

            The wonders of progress! Gotta love it! :D

I went into the "Big Red Video Store" because the LG Tab was released and there it was in a Plexiglass case..dumb?? but even dumber it wasn't the actual tablet it was the plastic display one..I am thinking ... I better leave before I get kicked out for laughing in an employees face. At least we are allowed to tether..
              P.S. forget this phone here ... The Big Red Machine has only fully committed to Android this year..so sad - so backwards thinking.

                    This one should have some wild benchmark. I have seen LG Optimus 2X running at 1.4GHz in youtube. It was something like 4320 or so. While the Samsung Galaxy (first gen) is about 1300. So you can exept similar results from this phone.

                          the nice thing about pantech is that it's dirty cheap. . really a very dirty cheap phone where can you get a 3.7 inch AMOLED screen plus 1ghz processor plus a 5 megapixel camera for just 11,000 Philippine peso. . It's so cheap that it's sound so tempting. . but I don't know how durable it is. . but I think it'll be durable, cause there's been a lot of positive feedbacks about pantech vega sky model. . try checking it in www.tipidcp.com. .

                                probably won't come to the North American market, but I really hope it does, having an uncommon top of the line phone sounds amazing

Of course, US don't see much of them, and I don't know about Europe. But yeah, they are most definitely still going strong.
