        Whatever happened to Micheal Schwartz? Did he buy an Apple product and stopped updating his blog in shame?

          I'm assuming that battery life is good with this phone, due to the type of multitasking it uses? I'm using a custom build SGS2, and while extending the battery life and tweaking it to how I want it has been fun, It's wasted a lot of my own time!

                                      Anonymous, 17 Sep 2012iphone aren't even expensive if you consider resale value. ... moreI don't care about how valuable my device is. Its usabilty matters. It doesn't matter if a device is cheaper, what matters is that it's not overpriced and you get your moneys worth. Take for example the new Motorola RAZR M, it's way cheaper but build quality and hardware used caters the latest iteration of android. I'm pretty sure it's butter-smooth on JB.
