Hahah

Nice.

The Verizon version is delayed again for "bing integration".

I'd laugh it weren't probably true.

Verizon sucks. Good for USC though. Actually, more folks should tweet @SamsungCarla about source, since I believe she promised a quick drop. Forget asking about Fascinate stuff -- Mesmerize kernel code is just as good for us.

No, VZ Nav

My next phone will likely be galaxy s2. Do I wish samsung got us froyo sooner... Ya but did it hurt performance or usability for me it did not dl09 took care of gps and that was my main concern. Galaxy s still has best screen and form factor along with very fast hardware.

Galaxy s2 looks to be the next real upgrade imo.

yess, mezmerize source is out!!

i can haz bln?!!

dammit, all the devs are too busy playing with their new thunderbolts

 

[bobloblaw1]

Yeah..i don't quite understand the iphone fan-boy attitude around the TB.

But at least a few of our devs haven't completely forgotten about us. Hopefully they will be able to cook up something awesome.

Why the fuss?

I like the changes in froyo as much as anyone else. What I don't understand is if froyo makes or breaks a phone a for you why didn't you buy a phone with froyo already released. We had a choice and decided to buy a phone with 2.1 instead of 2.2 there were options avaliable. The fascinate with the exception of the gps issue works great out of the box. Okay once it was debinged it was better, and if I had known about the bing thing I would not have bought the phone. Also thank you devs for all your hard work at making a good product even better.

I agree with you except for the bing thing. Did I want bing? No. But it was easy enough to make it mostly disappear even without root.

But I 100% agree on buying a phone for what it can do off the shelf. Once the GPS was fixed the Fasc was a perfectly competent smart phone. Believing in the 'promise' of a wireless carrier is kind of like believing the dentist when he says 'this won't hurt a bit'.

Not kaos. It's full steam ahead for Kaoscinate now. Kaos doesn't have a tbolt, at least not yet. This may be a selfish statement, but I hope he doesn't get one, because we need him focused on this phone, and I still feel bad for taking his focus away from his Eris roms, which haven't got much love since he got the Fascinate. I'm confident that he'll be getting back to them once a fully functional Kaoscinate release is up and running though, which should be soon now with the source code available.
