Also, I doubt I'd switch anytime soon because I'm still happy overall with my iPhone, but damn if the new Samsung Galaxies don't look pretty bad ass.

I've just broken my second Otter Box heavy duty phone case in a year.  Little plastic nib on the belt clip busted this time.  They'll probably replace it, but I resent having to spend the time to get it done.  I think I'm going to get out of the smart phone game and go back to a simple, inexpensive, and durable flip phone.

Stop wearing your phone on your belt.

It's impossible to not wear your phone on your belt and be a bad-ass at the same time.

My contract is up as of last month, my last couple were iPhones. I think I'll go with Samsung now. Also looking forward to 4G, it's long overdue.

That would be equivalent to not having one at all during the work day, because there is no other way to keep it nearby/safe.  Too big for a pocket. 

But I'm liking the idea of not having one at all.

The Nokia 1020 looks interesting.   A 41 MP camera seems like overkill and Windows phones as a rule suck, but I might give it a shot.  I can return it within 30 days on my plan and get something else if I choose.

41mp for the camera?  Holy shtein.  My actual camera is only 14 or 16mp.

41 megapixels just seems stupid. The file sizes must be ridiculous.

Sgt PSN

Yeah, it had to be a typo on Rome's part.  Probably meant 14 mp and his old, arthritic fingers simply got it twisted.

You'd think so, but no.

The more I see Samsung mobile products, the more I want them.  Apple really seems to be stuck in the mud and hasn't really introduced anything exceptionally new or exciting with their phones or tablets in quite some time now.  I know a few people with Galaxy phones and those things seem pretty awesome.  Gotta imagine the tablets are just as nice and they seem to have the ability to multi-task where iPads pretty much only allow you to do one thing at a time.
