Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

I think unlimited data is *so* worth it. Out of my cold, dead hands, man. Seriously. Hotspotting is a luxury in comparison, with my pattern of usage.

Same here.

I'll admit, I felt a small pang when I called up AT&T and told them to cancel the unlimited data plan on my Mom's iPad (they offered to transfer the plan to my account), but I knew I didn't *need* data plans for both the phone and the iPad, and wi-fi for it would be just fine.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Any Android users use Launcher Pro? Is it worth paying $3.49 for full access? I'm trying to explore it on my phone, and some of the features look cool (like the folders), but there are limitations (3 screens instead of seven (eta: never mind--that's a configuration thing)).

I can't believe I'm waffling over $3.49. But it feels like I'm cheating on my phone.

tiggy, I might be interested. I'm still trying to sell the gf on the idea, as she's the one who really wants a tablet. When were you thinking of selling it?

Sprint includes texting with their unlimited data, thankfully. If only their coverage map actually resembled reality, I'd be set.

My new iPhone has shipped. From Hong Kong. But still, it's supposed to be delivered on the 24th.

Hey. New board.

I've not used LauncherPro, but I really liked ADW.Launcher. It's extraordinarily configurable. I like the built-in MIUI launcher a lot, so I'm using that right now. It's very pretty. But ADW was definitely more configurable.

Texting is data if you use Google Voice. I've saved $100+ in text plans since I moved to Google Voice.

So far free Launcher Pro is pretty nice. Just about the only part of iOs that I miss are the folders. More space for widgets. I loves me some widgets.

Hey. New board.

Your normal launcher doesn't have folders? I thought pretty much every android launcher (including the built-in one) did. You can't just long-press on your normal home screen and choose to add a new folder?
