    Google can be very slow and is well known for being very inaccurate. It gets street names wrong in some cases and even cities. :eek: Trust Google as much as you trust PWE's ARC spyware, meaning you shouldn't trust either at all.

    The Garmin is fairly simple for the most part. One of the advantages to the Garmin over Google is you can download and save specific maps that you need frequently. If you need the most accurate data possible, the Garmin is the only choice. It can also include real time traffic data and various other overlays that use much better sources.

    I never did care for hte Portal games. I found the first one too simple to the point where it bored me from playing it. I wouldn't ever use Verizon if my life depended on it! They have to be the worst U.S. carrier next to AT&T. I've got a nice new Nexus 5 (Black) 32GB model.

    I ordered mine from Google directly. It will work on any carrier in North America other than Verizon (because Google hates them and their NSA backdoor to spying on people) and most other cell companies worldwide. That's the reason why I like the Nexus line of phones. It makes traveling easy because one phone can work with so many different companies that offer service on many different bands. They also come unlocked from the factory so none of that you need to pay to use it on other carriers TRIBBLE.

    As a heavy texter, I really like T-Mobile's Sidekick series for their amazing physical keyboards. They are definitely dated by today's devices but there is still a huge market for them. I personally hope T-Mobile returns to producing the Sidekick line and moves them into a higher quality and versatile produce instead of sticking them in the mid-range by design.

    The Nexus 5 is a phone that does it all and stands out among the rest of what is available. The Google Experience launcher offers up voice interaction with the device. This is not a phone for paranoid people as the device is always listening to see if you have a task for it. Then again, all phones have the potential to be remotely accessed and their mic activated without the user knowing but the Google Experience method at least makes you consciously aware that it is listening. That comes at a cost of battery life though. From what I have seen, the Nexus 5 is also very fragile. It is a great device though for just about every task you can think of.

    Google is getting out of hand with their TRIBBLE. You how much have a Google+ to tie to your YouTube or you can't comment. You have to have a GMail account to have a YouTube account and you have to have a GMail account to use the Android Play Store. If Microsoft was to do this, people would be outraged but because it's Google, most people look the other way. As time goes on, I hope the backlash grows to the point of where requiring a GMail account for anything isn't needed. In a world where privacy is important to most, companies like Google are keeping us back in the dark ages.

    Considering Google owns Motorola, their flagship devices are never made by them. That's telling me something. If Windows Phone could shape up to being on par with the XBOX One experience and be made a good manufacture with high end specs, I don't think Microsoft would have as much of an issue getting them in to the hands of consumers. Especially if the price was right. Another thing Microsoft needs to do phone side is loosen up on developers. They have for games and publishing to XBOX Live and need to do so for their phones as well. Considering Windows Phone holds about 4% of the market share and Apple holds 12%. It's not a huge hill to climb to beat elitist 3 year old TRIBBLE in shiny new colored plastic.

    Most definitely and Google is front and center for the next kick in the groin that they deserve. Apple already got one and they're cruising for another as well. Microsoft gets kicked repeately so I doubt they feel it anymore. :P

    UPS doesn't seem to know what a schedule or how to be on time also. What a wasted day and I'm stuck doing it all again tomorrow because of their incompetence.

    ups exist because like IBM somebody had an idea and they didn't invest in it..
    IBM had Gates UPS had a USPS bulk mail exec that wanted a pay raise

    so they spun off mail and have a system thats aging. located well but staff pay hasn't changed much

    you have no protections the USPS offers for tracking and investigations by federally badged agent

    why some less scrupulous peoples use delivery services to circumvent the federal law v fraud adverts in products


    but whats really important is i'm about to well today i will be mini vanned.. and be driving
    a red Pontiac Montana for the foreseeable future.. so ill disappear in traffic.. to slow to get out of the way and too big to miss

    The mail and courier system here all share the same problem. Due to being heavily unionized, they feel there is no sense of needing to get anything done on time. I called UPS this morning. If I hadn't, my package wouldn't even be going out for delivery today. It was supposed to be delivered yesterday. Time is going so slow!

    I didn't last that long at UPS. I quit long before getting any where near a month. Staring at 3AM wasn't an issue for me but getting there was. Getting to work 3 hours early because that was the only way you could get there on time made for a much longer and boring shift.

    For us, the trucks would back up to a barrier, you'd have one person in the trock to toss packages out to a slide a few feet away and that would take it down to the belt to take it to sorting. We were always told to not worry about what was in it. Speed was the key, even if you heard smash. The way they packed some of those trucks, packages with glass in them that had been handled poorly would have glass shards sticking out. Others with liquids would be leaking and so on. The few nights I worked there, I ruined 3 outfits and I walked out of there each day at 11AM looking like I was homeless from being so dirty.

    Some Doctor Who Techno/Trance for the 50th.

    aye another reason the outsourcing was they would except items the other service would not. I preferred the Military mails smaller base office just an occasional sack that wasn't turned inside out and barring a year old letter also the sack were washed and displayed with military parade field precision

    The military does things efficiently and are reliable. You don't see that in today's mail or courier systems very often. We need more military order and less unions. ;)

    Did everyone enjoy the 50th Doctor Who special? From what I have seen around the STO boards, I'm probably one of the few that thought it was too short, didn't include enough of the classic Doctor's, and that it was more or less a cliche string of quotes full of stupid baby talk. Geeze... I can't stress enough how much I loathe all of the new Doctor's with the exception of Capaldo so far. I saw so much unused potentioal that was passed up. Tom Baker should have been in full costume at some point and it really would have been nice for him and all of the classic Doctor's to have some screen time to integrate in to the final... I won't spoil it for anyone that hasn't seen it. It wasn't great but it could have been worse also.

    I never could get in to the Sarah Jane Adventures. It just seemed too Tomb Raiderish. Have you checked Amazon On-Demand? Even if it's not free for Prime, they usually have some decent prices on renting or buying digital seasons. I wouldn't be surprised if Hulu has it also but they put ads in everything. Totally not worth it for that reason.

    Why mute something when you can completely eliminate watching it instead?! :P P/DVR's can help for skipping them over but they need some sort of an ad blocking system for TV's.
