I am just waiting for the CHUCK NORRIS.

:lol:  They'd only have a one word name for it though.  The Samsung Beard.  Competitive offerings:  the HTC Dragon and the Motorola Nunchuck.

Galaxy S II's are pretty big.  Might want to check one of those out.  The Droid X and EVO are also over 4".

Edit:  Actually, apparently Telus up there has one that's called a Galaxy S II X, which has an even bigger 4.5" screen.  That's huge.

Comedy/frustration option:  HTC Aria.  3.2" screen.  :P

I dunno - other than Blackberries all these phones kind of look the same to me...

30 seconds spent messing with a Windows phone would disabuse you of this notion.

Really?

They're all big screens with black trim.  I'm including the iPhone in there as well.

I'm sure they function differently, but in terms of basic appearance, they all kind of look the same (which they are, since they're all iPhone copies).

I have both a Blackberry Bold 9780 and a Motorola ATRIX (Droid).  The Droid is like a billion times better.

What makes it better?

I really love the look of the Nokia N9, but until they give in and start using Android I don't see the point of getting another Nokia.

I'm currently split between Samsung Galaxy II and HTC Sensation which I presume is the next gen HD.

The Lumia 800 *is* the N9, but with Windows Phone instead. By all accounts so far it's a fantastic phone.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I drank the cool aid and got the iPhone 4.

Please tell me you got the 4S.
