I thought this site was great before I won the contest. Now I am addicted. Thanks alot guys!!! Keep up the good work.
Boooo wtf. You had an apple guy on and nothing about itunes. The only comp was was if you could pick out an app what would you pick..... Lame you never once said what do you think of the pre? Next time you have an apple person on I want this question. "if you had to pick between the 2 phones what would you pick and why. Now that I think about it that should be your next poll. Why did you pick the pre over the iphone and if you had the choice would you do it again.
Oh here is another one if you are waiting to buy a pre what are you waiting for.
To me there are only 2 good phones so why would you buy anything but the big 2.
You guys let me down big time on this one
Why does Dieter sound so robotic?
Dieter, you do a great job facilitating and editing. I appreciate that you include the post show snippets in your editing. I hate I have to miss it live, but I eagerly look forward to the weekly podcast. I never was a tech nerd before this site, but you've got me hooked. My friends don't quite know what to make of my new fixation. :) Thanks!
When are you going to do the next smartphone experts roundtable. Especially with the new Android news. I really like when you do those. Perhaps you're just going to incorporate some of those folks into the weekly podcast.
Keep up the great work! It's so appreciated!!!!
