    um you can still buy the songs with zune and its the same pricing as apple. really there are no downsides to the zune other than the lack of apps that the ipod touch has.

     

    here is a comparison: http://www.pcmag.com…d=243285,00.asp

    they are pretty equal (except the apps as i said) but I still give zune the edge because of itunes. itunes is possibly the worst piece of software ever written (unless you are on a mac, where it actually works properly). apple’s coders for PC are lazy and the pc version is a *edited*ty port full of bugs and memory leaks. zune gives you the versatility of using whatever software you want to transfer music to/from your device.

     

    My friend has a Zune and we found out that it syncs with windows 7 like a beast. It loaded every song he had onto his new PC almost instantly and being able to navigate through playlists, artists, albums, etc was easy. I have Vista unfortunately, but if they programed the Zune to have the same relationship with that os then I’d definitely go with zune.

     

    So DRMing is like renting songs I take it? I can’t err, upload my music from another source now?

     

    And thanks for the link nickname. I think I’ll take the Zune now.

    As much as i hate Apple products, I would say the ipod wins

    My ipod touch is really one of best things ive ever bought. I use it everyday because it does so much more than just play music

     

    I prefer chrome over firefox if you know what I mean.

    My aunt used to live in a ritzy neighborhood in Charlotte and a couple Panthers players had houses there. From what she said, if you didn’t know they were players you’d never tell by talking to them. Apparently off the field they’re really cool, laid back guys.

     

    That’s the proper set of mood states for an elite athlete. They got an “on” & “off” button.

    Segway’s are how rich people walk

     

    Clarification: Segways are for upper middle class people who think they’re rich.

     

    Rich people use Ferraris. They’re never spotted on the sidewalk.

    nope, not even close.

    I mean a siphon works in a similar way, they just cannot produce enough force to turn the wheel and produce the electricity you want.

    Got my wisdom teeth taken out, they had to put me to sleep because they had to cut them out, worked though cause I thought I was in there for like 30 minutes. Turns out I was in there for close to 4 hours, I cam out loopy as hell and I don’t really remember much other than basically quoting Billy Cosby stand up when he talks about going to the dentist. After that I was on your basic IB profin for 800 mg every 4 hours.

     

    My friend was quoting Bill Cosby in Family Guy when he woke. “Zip Zop Zoopidy Zoo!”

    Actually I think the girls with Tours got em through Sprint. But they got the Tour esp. to be int’l (they be from the UAE) so I doubt bberry would sell another version for verizon.

     

     

    The Tour was specifically for international use. It’s even noted as the feature on the BB website.

    ah pre-installed. Lol, she probably was looking for the slot to put the card in & couldn’t find it. I apologize for the monkey that is my sister.

    I’m pretty sure Verizon makes sure their phones aren’t capable of using sim cards. I’ve been with verizon since I was a teen & every phone wasn’t capable of using the card.

    Storm, Storm 2, Tour, Bold all have slots. I know this because my friends have these and they all have a SIM card.

     

    But did they get them through Verizon?

    I couldnt tell you the limit on e mail attachments. Usually if its to big the phone will load part of it then when your done reading that part or seeing that picture it will load up the other part.

    Global use depends on the phone and your carrier. Most phones on ATT should work in Europe, as should any other GSM-based phone, but the usage rate without an international plan is really expensive. Blackberrys should work overseas but it’s always best to ask and be sure before spending money on one.

     

    Only Verizon’s 4G phones will work overseas and definately ask before buying.

     

    Btw, Verizon’s 4G network sounds to be pretty epic. SIM cards, longer reaching towers, and during initial testing they were seeing 50-100MBit/sec downstream speeds. GG

     

    Oh I f*ckin’ love SIM cards. Every time I get in a country, I get a *edited*ty phone and a card. I feel all Jason Bourne-like :D Even if the blackberry charges you up the wazoo for international calls, they gots wireless & now Skype (plus the whole bbn thing works). As long as I can send emails with attachments, I’ll just stick to the SIM card in a *edited*ty phone for chit chat.

     

    MasterP said:

    No not every black berry can be used globally. Ask what ones before you buy. I know the tour does but thats all I can attest to. Dealing with e mails on my black berry is very very simple and I usually dont even check them from a pc anymore unless I have to open up something big or send a file out. As far as the fun factor of it well….its non existant but hey black berrys were first made for the business man so yeah what do you expect.

     

    My little sis has the tour & it’s worked for her in China & Tea Town. What’s the limit on the email attachments? The only fun thing I’d expect is music. I’ll be way too busy to play monkey-in-a-glass-ball

    I guess I really am going to go for the blackberry. Good thing they got RD apps. Just to double check- how’s dealing with email? I hope they all can be used globally
