me too, plus it eliminates the potential for butt dialing and reduces damage potential. plus, since mine's a flip, i can read text messages without having to spend minutes. 8)

curious, what made you give up the cookie?

@pent: as it turns out, i was wrong, the first BB's came out in 99'. and as it turns out, i meant palm pilot, lol. ^^ it came out in 97, check out the cool (now defunct) 90's gaming apps for it:

the interface+touchscreen just wasn't to my liking. I can't really give you a concrete reason why, it just didn't feel natural to me. Of course, neither did the Android on my first try, but I got used to it fairly quickly. But it's entirely possible that I just hadn't spent enough time on the LG Cookie.

true. did you need a stylus to interact with it? it was pictured with one,  so maybe that was the awkward disconnect.

I think mine is on Jellybean, since KitKat is only for 32GB models :/

You didn't /need/ the stylus, but it still felt clunky to me. (Scrolling down anything was a pain in the ass) It was too much trouble to take out the stylus anyway. Especially coming from a flip phone, I was used to getting through menus and things fairly quickly.

You know, I remember wanting the Motorola Razr way back when. The ad for it was so cool *w*

My bro had a silver razr. I wanted one too but in the end I was too attached to my little cheap flip phone to give it up. Also this was around the time the iPhone came out and I was seriously considering getting a hold of one of those, however our cell provider didn't pick them up (until a few years ago, lulz) so I never did...

Sad thing though, he ended up ruining it when he jumped into a river with it still in her pocket. Got a cheap little keyboardphone not too long afterward.

Samsung tablet 2, Kindle Fire.
and a Kyocera flip phone
Simon was here :P

My dad has a Kindle Fire (that I occasionally hijack).

It's pretty good for web browsing and reading but I don't really like the OS. It feels too ... Amazon-y. I mean Android is thoroughly Googlized but it's doesn't seem as overpowering to me.

my sister had a razr for years. i always wanted a phone but this was during the time when you could only get one via a plan, and i think she either paid for it via various jobs or piggybacked off a boyfriend's plan. i think it initially had cingular but eventually moved to verizon.

Mmm. Actually had someone come into work one day, wanting a new phone. Her old one, which she had with her, was a Cingular phone; obviously running on AT&T now.

So, if anyone is curious, this is what happens when you try to sync a Galaxy S3 with an iBook G3. From the Android side:


...and from the OS9 side:


Got to love how Flonne is all "Please plug me into something newer :\", while Sonata is like "I can check online to find drivers maybe ^^". Although, at the very least, Sonata can charge Flonne -w-
