    I went into the Verizon store yesterday to play with an iPhone 4 to help me make a decision. Then I wandered over the other side of the store and picked up a Motorola Droid something-or-other. Geez, that iPhone screen is lame by comparison.

      The Droid Bionic?

      The Samsung 4g phone screen is really nice, but I don't like the size and build quality.

      I perhaps have an irrational dislike of Motorola that I should get over. By most measures, the Droid Bionic is Verizon's best phone. 4G + dual core -- it's the only Verizon offers right now. I'm interested in seeing when HTC comes out with their dual core phone.
      Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

        Here's possibly a shot of the new HTC Verizon phone



        Yeah, I know this belongs in the Droid thread.

            I wanted so badly to get this update before I left for work this AM. Now I have to wait until tomorrow to play with it.

              Updating my iPad right now.

              I am surprised I got a server connection. Took a few tries.

                  Click the Check for Udates button. I got the same message initially.

                          Argh.... I got the update downloaded but it won't install. I keep getting the following error message:

                          The iPad ____ could not be restored. An unknown error occured (3200).

                          I have been googling, but it appears it is a new error code with iOS 5. I am dead in the water.

                          Any suggestions, Ted?

                            Apple products are very intuitive. You're just not thinking about it correctly.

                              Apple updates always freak me out. I never know if my device data will be the same once I finish the update.

                              Sure enough, this update warns me to back up everything and that media files will be gonzo once the update is finished.

                              Updating your OS should not be stressful!

                                Yes. Go to that place over there by the mall that kind of resembles an Apple Store but isn't. It is not really an apple store but it will do in an emergency such as this. Tell them Uncle Ted sent you and that you need the following:

                                Macbook Pro with an Intel Core i7 Proc, 8GB Memory, 512GB SSD, 17" screen, OSX 10.7.1

                                Once you get this let me know and I'll tell you the next step.
