That's not an attitude many techie people share, I can assure you. And I'm the one who makes no sense? I don't need any crap stuff like NFL app or trial versions of crappy games that no sane person would ever pay good money for. I don't need a trial version of CoPilot, which is beyond insulting given how prominently it featured in the HD2 marketing material. I don't need the wallpapers, ringtones, themes and crapware from my carrier on top of what already comes from HTC and Microsoft. You might already be using a cooked ROM, and you might not know this, but one of the biggest attractions of cooked ROMs is that they rip out all the junk and trial versions and whatnot. So yeah, the fact that the US HD2 is going to have all this additional software sucks to me because it's kind of going against what all these great customized ROMs strive for.

Complete, utter bullshit. It's like Apple fanboys are planting these rumors specifically created to piss off the hardcore WM fans by saying that WM7 is suddenly going to look like the iPhone. No. Microsoft is a lot of things, but they are not stupid on the business market. Bull and shit. if you believe all this garbage, I have a bridge to sell you.

They’ve entered the phone (OS and hardware), desktop, social media segment in the past year. Ultimately, they are no different that Microsoft, everyone wants to be number one. Don't get me wrong I think competition is a wonderful thing but I think Google can drop the “Don’t be evil” guise now.

I said buying stuff from Amazon is for suckers. Why pay $15 for an electronic book which is 99.99 percent profit for the publisher?

Back when it was just PDAs, you could have extremely wide releases because it didn't matter where in the world. Now it's extremely segmented and hurting everybody. It definitely would've helped Google if they shipped with at&t and T-Mobile besides World3G. Limiting to T-Mobile is the same as Palm limiting to Sprint, suicide. Maybe they should make the radio a "plug-in" module like a battery so you can wide-release with a common device, and then only worry about making the proper radio module per region. Then people can pick and choose which they need. Limiting a device to a certain carrier that's now the "limiting" factor.
