I'm getting tired of picking failing OEMs

Hey, try walking in my shoes, I kill entire OSes. I loved PalmOS, webOS, Windows Mobile (CE based), BlackBerry 10 and Windows Phone (7-10).

I just noticed that you can count these on one hand. That's trippy.

After not having Facebook for years, I'm debating the idea of having an active account (my account is deactivated) again. Why? Because of the various groups that are there and the impact of that. Unfortunately, they don't seem to be anywhere else. Some places/organizations only do Facebook groups.

Not only that, I was chewing gum and texting in my truck on the way home.

I honestly didn't have much hope for the US unlocked model I have. Let's see how this plays out before I make any decisions.

Let us know what you think! Samsung has been treating the US unlocked models well with security patches with the S10 series. Not Pixel well, but at least to the point where these updates are available are in the same month it was released.

You having an alternative facts moment by forgetting I tried all those OSes myself.

Well he may argue the difference between tried and invested in...

But he knows that like him, I'm a member of the owned 100+ device club. Hacks and special files were stock in trade with those OSes. I'd go with WebOS as the best OS of all time that was never adopted, because you can see UI elements in Google and Apple software that are traceable back to Palm.

We got down like that. Maybe him a bit deeper than me, but .cab files, Web OS repositories, etc...i knew a thing or two.

Totally forgot you had one of these Note 9 things. Let us know how feel about the new UI.

Dulcimer is STILL my default email ringtone. That's my webOS heritage representin'.

It was not adopted as an OS but look at the features that are lauded now but originated there: wireless charging, tap to share, gesture navigation and contact integration.

Work day is done. Gonna eat some ribs with a cold beer. I wanted burnt ends but they were out. How the F are you out of burnt ends in a BBQ spot?

People pilfered the $#@! outta WebOS for sure.

Let me enjoy my mobile rectangle...i suspect Google will counter this by accelerating Fuschia OS development.

What parts remain of it are in all the LG tvs and iot devices.

Switched out the case on my Pixel 3a. The transparent case didn't like the overseas trips and looks brown instead of clear.

Switched to a gray case. Much better.

I'm getting a S20 regular Joe version. Looks like it's going to be about $640 all in.

Gotta love the gimmicky launch trades.

Oh well, I'm out in my own league growing up in the 90s then I guess. I only had the luxury of owning a burgandy Motorola pager before '99 and never graduated from that until after 2005 with a used hp ipaq off ebay but that was not even wifi unless I bought the card slot adapter. I was old school with a flip phone all through college. Was not until after around 2009 or shortly after when I got my first android phone.
