    Well this is Samsung... maybe it's time to do that monthly product release thingy. 


     


    The betting pool is open as to the name... I'll put 4 Quatloos on the "Galaxy S4S"

    A new report out of Korea claims Apple's chief rival Samsung is slashing orders for new smartphone parts, marking the first time the company has done so in its history.

    what, archrival too sinister?

    Nothing sinister about archrival and could very well be used.

    That means Samsung is doing great, lots of new products on the pipeline. Again, Apple is doomed. The market is going to reward samsung and punish Apple stock some more.

    No but the photosharing feature is kind of cool. Although, they admittedly haven't used it much.

    I have an S4....BUT...Samsung is releasing too many products right now. They are fragmenting their brand.....Their phones sales are slowing because everyone is waiting for the new iPhone.  The iPhone is still the best selling smartphone in the world. We all know Apple leads the mobile phone space....they are the trend setter.......everyone else follows.

    Apple could launch a new <a href="http://appleinsider.com/articles/13/06/19/leaked-schematics-reveal-what-case-makers-expect-apples-low-cost-iphone-iphone-5s-will-look-like">low-end iPhone</a> this year to target customers who prefer unsubsidized handsets that are not tied to a new two-year service contract.

    You can buy the iPhone 5 unsubsidised and without a service contract. The rumoured lower cost iPhone is for people who want... a lower cost iPhone!

    Are we renaming 'swinger parties' to 'Samsung parties' now? I'd like that.

    Well reality has finally caught up with the worship of Samsung.

    Next company to be knocked off its pedestal of blind admiration bordering on worship, Google.

    Apparently the HTC One is selling pretty well.   It's in third place in the US behind the iP5 and GS4... and that's being only on what, a couple of carriers?


     


    I know that I'm leaning towards it instead of a GS4, now that Verizon has said they'll be selling the One later this summer as well.

    I have. I thought it was the S3. Looks the same. Generic smartphone running some nondescript Android. Not kidding. Google should name this version of Android Vanilla.

    I have nothing against poor people but I know poor people make poor choices and their justification is rich people have ego (apple users are egoistic?) 



     


    LOL..   poor people make poor choices?
