Labtec, if you get a HTC, I will never look at you the same. <b><i><u>all HTC phones are chick phones</u></i></b>.

No exceptions.

Anyway the Chacha was a fairly crappy phone, I don't have any suggestions otherwise, except that Samsung makes winning phones, and don't buy Huawei phones. They make excellent wireless modems though, using one now.

I saw this HTC; (Chacha)

Dunno if this is a ladyphone, but apart from the gay name and FB-button it seems pretty appealing :D

I will have to handle it in a different way than my current phone tough, I don't think this one likes being thrown across the living room :roll:
How about Casio's G'zOne Commando?

No keyboard, but it is Android-powered. Plus, you won't have to "handle it differently" than your other phone, since this one is built to military specs. It's waterproof, shockproof, etc. You could probably shoot it out of one of your cannons and it wouldn't be the worse for wear. It is a bit pricey, but at least it doesn't have an FB-button.

What are some good cities/sites* in America to go to between Albuquerque and Pittsburgh? :D

My friends and I discussed some very preliminary plans to RV from L.A. to N.Y. once we finish university in June 2013.


*big-fúck-off-mountains, national parks and deserts like Monument Valley and Yosemite.

Lock stock reference and a polite middle finger to the profanity filter, I see what you did there :D

Also, RV... you mean stripped out and meth-labbed :D

Yep.

Should I care? I don't know how you look at me :D
I'll see how my uncle reacts, he works for HTC :P
How about Casio's G'zOne Commando?


I haven't seen that one yet, very nice :)
A phone that won't survive a drop isn't anything for me.

MrC, June 2013? I intend to visit the US and Canada then. Alert me to your plans when you do go, I'll only be seeing a mate in Florida, but I'm giving myself two weeks, so I may visit a firearms friendly state on your route.

Labtec, I see you in a loving way, how could I not love someone who has access to CNC equipment.

You could go out of your way to visit Abita Springs. I drive by it everyday without really thinking about it but it's home to a pretty decent brewery (which includes tours).

Stop by the Philadelphia area and we can test out the "Mini-boy" on a power-line clearing near by!

Out here, we do. It's a 3 month process to get a .22 rifle if you don't already have a license. There's a 28 day holding period on any firearm, air rifles are in the same class as shotguns, airsoft is banned, paintball needs a license, no semi auto anything, you need to be part of a pistol club and attend 6 competitions a year to get a pistol, you need to be part of that club for 6 months, then apply for the license, fingerprints taken etc, then another 6 months, then you can buy pistols.

By firearms friendly, I mean not California, and somewhere with a good renting range, preferably with an FN FAL.

Warhead, I'm still going through my files, I'll send you some more trigger group .pdfs in a day or so.

As an aside, I just watched Manhunter, fecking brilliant. Still have another four to go.
