Geeking out

[EstimatedProphet]

http://www.samsunginstinct.com/

I just got a Samsung Instinct. It's cool, and by cool I mean totally sweet! Phone, text, email, GPS with built-in search for nearest low-price business, web, radio, MP3s, TV and movies, photobucket uploads, 2 meg camera and video with a 2 gig SD card, and it comes with an extra SD card and an extra battery (something too many phones seem to forget these days). I now have the Star Wars Imperial March as my ringtone, and Monty Python's Spam as my email alert. Also, it allows you to sort voicemails, so you can ignore the ones from your boss and still listen to the rest. I'm geeking out!

1. Jealous!!!

2. It's sweet, and not that expensive either!

Phone is $129 - a far cry from the iPhone!

3. Yes but...

It doesn't even come with a microwave oven.:)

[EstimatedProphet]

4. There's a software download for that

5. You don't need no stinkin software.

Just put 4 of them around a packet of microwave popcorn and watch the magic!

6. Your a super geek! super geek!

Your super geeking out!

[EstimatedProphet]

7. GEEK!

GEEK! GEEK! GEEK!
GEEK! GEEK! GEEK! GEEK! GEEK! GEEK!

8. Yeah, but you have Sprint.

Sorry about that. :(

[EstimatedProphet]

11. That's the only drawback, I admit

But this makes it worthwhile!

9. And now HS can track you everywhere you go.

[EstimatedProphet]

12. They could do that anyway

But I can watch movies while they do! So there!

[hobbit709]

13. My eyes are too old to watch movies on teeny little screen

And my $20 Tracfone© can't be remotely accessed

[EstimatedProphet]

14. That's what they told you, anyway...

16. If you wear the hat while using, you're safe.

:tinfoilhat:

10. I'm so glad that I found a forum where "geeking out"....

... isn't a drug reference.

Well, unless really cool electronics are a drug... they might be a more expensive habit.

[EstimatedProphet]

15. They're a drug alright

17. The only features my phone are missing is the Radio and TV...

Not that I'd ever use those two! :P

18. I was thinking about something similar for a while

When I saw the Instinct, though, that changed my mind.

[texanwitch]

19. I want one.

Looking for a upgrade for my old cellphone.

20. Is that sprint by any chance?

It's almost new phone time for me and i have sprint, my contract expired on the 19th so i can go with another carrier or just stay with sprint. I don't really have any complaints about sprint service wise, i have service almost everywhere but i don't want to get locked into another 2 year contract.

Envious btw, i've seen that phone advertised on the teevee and it looks fun.

[EstimatedProphet]

22. It is Sprint

and if you're eligible you can get it at the discount price they use to bring in new customers. You may be eligible if you've had your phone for a while.

[AlCzervik]

24. i have this current one for 2 years so i'll be stopping by sprint today while i'm out.

the only thing is the contract, i've been with sprint for 8 years and at this point i'd like to go month to month with a new phone.

[EstimatedProphet]

25. The contract really is the sticker on this

It ain't cheap, and it's 2 years guaranteed. IMO it's worth it for us though.

21. Very cool

I just dropped my land line today and got a cell phone. Mine is not as cool as yours is but it can take pictures and has has a whole lot of options that i don't know how to use, yet. Quest, done pissed me off for the last time. Fucktards cut off my caller ID and voice mail because one month's bill ran into the next month and got me up to 111.00 dollars. It's paid and they are CUT off. 'F' them. I was wanting a place to talk about my cell phone but didn't want to start my own thread. After all I only have an 'ordinary' phone. Congrats on your fancy geeking equipment!

23. What kind did you get?
