What Are You Doing Right Now
-
Off to a Meeting with Unitrends Sales people. Not often I get to spend this much time with Unitrends team members in person. SC at the end of April, @KatieUnitrends, Jenn Sipala and Elissa (I hope I spelled that right) too in London and now Daryl Stevens here in NY. Fun!

@scottalanmiller If I were to exclude the Note 3 (that was just a crappy phone), it works out pretty good for me. I won't need a new phone in 2 years if this Note 4 holds up... in which case, I use it until it breaks. Then a buy the next one up the totem pole when mine dies.
I actually got bit by the Note 3 for the very reason that makes you wait and get last gen hardware when you upgrade. Last gen hardware has been tested and generally approved or marked as "do not buy"
-
I get low end to mid grade phones, but I use prepaid and pay for phones in full out of pocket. I buy used most of the time.

@thecreativeone91 Being deaf, my phone is how you reach me. (regardless of if it is email, text messages, chat, whatever). I need a device that works, and works right. Generally Samsung has done well for me (I had one of their old Windows CE Phones, then something else, and then a Droid Eris... then back to Samsung for my last 2 phones.

Asus is starting to offer phones with CPU upgrade options. Never seen that before.
-
@thecreativeone91 What is that phone that is the one where everything is a module? I don't think it is out on the market yet... '
I wouldn't mind triyng the Futurefone from IdealFuture (http://www.idealfuture.com) one of these days... maybe after my Note 4 dies.

Mop up of user's tears is nearly complete after a weekend cluster f***.(Admin Edit) Looking forward to getting some real work done soon.

@MattSpeller Related to that PowerStrip thread you made a bit ago?

Very interesting.

Doing some package deployments. Hoping to hit the bar tonight. Had an awesome night last night hanging out with the local politicians (vote is in two weeks.) Actually had them take me and my friends back to their houses to party.

I usually just ship mine, not send them to war.

Nope, it's coming in February, review units are already out. It's not modular though.
I don't think the FutureFone is viable though, to many engineer nightmares to overcome with that ambitious idea.

@thecreativeone91 What was that one coming in February called?

I think it is a very ambitious idea! That's part of the reason I like it. I do think you are right though, there's a lot of ways it could go very, very, even spectacularly badly, lol.
I'd still like to get my hands on the kit for a day or two even if it is just to get the Good, the Bad, and the Broken.

@dafyre An Update to the Zen Phone 2 I think is what is is. It uses Intel Atom CPUs with Android which is odd.
-
Apparently the ZenPhone 2 can already be ordered with two different CPU choices now.

Phonebloks is the one I was thinking of... (https://phonebloks.com/en).

Really cool pocket sized drone:

I've managed to live with my Galaxy S4 since July 2013. Frankly I really started to hate the phone at the 9 month mark, though to be fair, I think perhaps my problems where caused by my recharging habits - that first summer was pretty brutal on my phone, full to dead in 6 or less hours, recharge and do it again for about 2 months straight.
I picked up a Lumia 635 last Dec 2014 and been using that as my primary phone since then. While it's a bit under powered and the camera totally sucks, overall I'm pretty happy with it. I really want to get a 640 XL - more power, better camera - BIGGER...
