how's it going everyone and Adam doubt contributing editor higher I has everybody doing tonight it is good to have you guys here and welcome everybody who's been joining us everybody who's watching us hopefully this is the first time so disclaimer this is the first time I am hosting the panel brand is usually doing it so if if something's wrong technically just blame it on me but hopefully everything will go smoothly and I would like also to ask participants if we are not in a conversation please mute your microphone and unmute your microphones whenever we will be talking to you so that the camera stays locked on the person that speaks and with this I'm gonna hand it over to Taylor and Adam please guys choose somebody to talk to take it away Adam I'm gonna let you I'll break you in quickly I usually give you a blast through left to right when I'm in trouble so all right all right I do that uh see we got a Andrew looks like Andrew benner I guess yeah hello Andrew better how are you good excellent excellent thank you if you could do something with that back like we're seeing just a silhouette of you if he could make a position can you see that around white phone in front of that's why that's why I picked him because it was it was like you know all all Superman villain kind of thing going on goodnight a second I'll turn the light on he didn't want his face shown it's like that news story where he oh that's a new thing and I don't want my face shown either but here I me just a question Tony can I have my monocle and mustache absolutely sweet knock yourself out I'm having I'm having live props as usual can't grow real mustache so I'd stick with big ones what and I just do Andras look better now okay we'll come back Adam back to you awesome awesome Andrew how is it how's that bedroom what how how are you yeah is there anything you want to talk about anything on your mind really i wish i had a nexus 4 and i wish i had a nexus 4 and i think my man Jaime Rivera it wishes he had a nexus 4 in his country they kill for that phone not yet in my country but i would probably commit something for it for fun like that yes i love mine just I think Levi's got one for sale I will trade you I will trade you what he had there is that an iphone yeah it's the IP you will trade a iphone 5 40 nexus 4 yes ok anybody got a nexus 4 for an iphone 5 for Justin that's a pretty trade I'm getting that so what are you from America ok alright cool me I'm from I'm from Chicago so I got my product placement Chicago Cubs going on there so I see ya you Americans is it is it basketball baseball hockey what is it Chicago Cubs is baseball thanks i have a reference to death that's a kid comin I don't really get it either only watch sports I care more about top gear and stuff like that ok yeah do you hear about that new york times uh versa top gear versus Tesla thing what's your position on that who you think's blowing smoke up our butts oh I don't know it I mean that you know it's not officially out as a car yet so it's hard to say you know like what's actually going on it could be a defective review unit the reviewer could be foolish I mean it's hard to tell really it is just don't drop the ash bombs okay we're alive and we don't want that s bombs or f bombs or anything related just complete that up we can't because this is live this is the the the thing of the live show don't you get oh you get to choose like edit stuff out before you upload it it's uploading automatically anyway I have a question I want I have a question for you at the end of this this conversation what do you expect from mwc what are you looking forward to seeing there um stuff that doesn't suck for instance what does some wouldn't i would i would like to see HTC step their game up a little bit and bring out something that could put him back you know ahead of everybody else cuz they had that spot a while ago and what the whole what like I think last year they were trying to rebuild their brand by bringing the one series but they fail because they had the one the one x the one x+ the one sv the one be it was like wait which one do i buy one happy family yeah yeah not so much yeah nobody really knew like what do I get less is more exactly okay Andrew anything else you want to add um I kind of like to get a smart PC no smart PC the surface Pro's anybody tried that yet we are currently if not doing the service pro so stay tuned for our full review all right I will be I'm sure you've seen a couple of our videos or already I have Adam Lane he he's the one who reviews it I I can't wait to get my hands on that but by the time it gets to my place here all the guys in the u.s. my colleagues will probably already have some opinion let it and you already know what to expect yeah well what would you use the surface pro 4 would it be a replacement for you or a tablet or what would it be I mean at that price point it's hard to justify just having an extra device ID by how to take over my current computer to sell the laptop i have now and just by that do you think if compared compares to your computer I mean as in raw horsepower and what you can achieve on your computer oh I think for what I do on my computer I think yet could I mean I used to game a lot but now I don't so much so it's that's not really the problem ok good thank you very much for dropping young I will be rude but it's not rudeness I will kick you out so that more people can join us but we are waiting for you next week hope you'll join us again sorry take care bye bye see ya thank you Andrew all right okay Taylor your turn all right well I would choose this chris guy but there's no video I don't even know if he's with us can't tell close I'm gonna go with uh is it dominicano I've spoken with you on twitter some so I guess you have the floor yeah yeah the money cause irregular yo I think we're going for life props yeah I think if we're going for live props here Tony oh what oh yeah okay see something because the camera will then switch back to you yeah you gotta speak uh hey man how's it going oh yeah I hit me up yeah we can now very cow alright so I don't have any left I just knowed you can be mum that's pretty awesome you know yeah yeah i guess i got i was gonna say like well done to you guys like Adam and Taylor well done thank you and I just you probably snot I just tweeted a Casper saying he's definitely been loving them that's my alter ego that's my alter ego what would I do names aha ya see me I work my question for you guys if there was anything no not current where were you that oh no I I work on the weekend so I really have no life so this is this is the pinnacle of a week right now so and then it could be a hell of a lot worse it's gonna be so my question is at the I said about four or so my enough platform so there's obviously there's selfish by Yolo there's a bun to mobile are there's um actually I'm gonna count blackberry and windows phone 8 in these of those for which you guys like succeed oh no I don't do in which particular order do you watch the answer uh Anton Adam Taylor okay so let me see if I got your question straight mm-hmm out of the less popular platforms the startups open webOS you bun to blackberry and you also added Windows Phone to that list yeah okay definitely Windows Phone hands down and if I was to make a top than Windows Phone will be my first choice then I'd go with the most definitely the blackberry 10 OS then you bun to and then open webOS it yet would that be because of their more established a faker system so now that nothing to Shelly windows phone is definitely an older platform on the market it has a larger ecosystem but it is a more stable it's a more bug a free platform it's it offers you that that certainty that you can rely on your phone which which I'm not sure I can say the same for a bunch of phone or open webOS phone or even the blackberry phone which which still has some bugs and its initial iteration I mean they with the whole kernel based to Windows Phone 8 they did find their fair amount of problem they didn't know so so Adam yes all right um well this is def reading because he's a webos guy and the windows phone this is insanely tough question everyone is a weber west guy you cannot put that label anyone that's true that's true arm what would I like to secede or what do I realistically think will succeed that's two very different questions right now I gotta say windows phone 8 is probably going to I think to a point they've already succeeded in that you know they definitely have my chair they definitely have market sure not a whole hell of a lot but they do have um so I'm going to put that on top of my list so and then after that uh it's I that I think is going to succeed i'll probably go blackberry i just think they have too much of an established user base to go away i think a bunt too is I don't know it's way out there it's a hobbyist platform on PCs let alone what it's going to be in mobile you know they say hey it's the exact same thing as being on a bunch of computer I don't see it and I do frankly don't like using the bunch of computers so good luck with that guys and then finally open webOS um I just I really as much as I would like to think that it's going to take the world by storm and its just oh man I just you're gonna make me say this in public aren't you uh yeah it's gonna be a hobbyist mobile platform pretty much for the rest of its existence and now that HP has moved on to Android even HP even you know if I if I told you that I was going to you know promote this other kid as opposed to my son to you know lead off on a baseball team what would that tell you about my confidence in my own kid oh my god so yeah that's pretty much my list hey man come like februari 21st i'm having a bun to phone going on this I don't carry and you're not the only one I think I think this service is gonna drop no matter how big canonical is their servers are gonna rock Taylor's waving like crazy go on today dump it yeah all right so um pretty much summed up most of what I was actually going to say but I as much as I want webos to succeed it's what he said is probably not HP doesn't even really believe in open webOS anymore so windows phone 8 really has I guess an edge on pretty much every other up-and-coming platform if I wanted one so the non practical me said there was one going to succeed it would be can I Canonical's ubuntu phone OS and what is it bunting for android where you have dual booting and to android and ubuntu but the reasonable me says windows for me yeah i wanna greet in i was a blackberry 10 guy to begin with that's my first smartphone was a blackberry and i would love to see them succeed but they really kind of I don't know they they let the fizzle just kind of died they built it up built it up built it up delayed it built it up delayed it built it up too late it and then it was just kind of like oh you caught up you didn't really leapfrog anyway just just got up you gave to go into noni well you gave two phones ownership one it's it's nice but it's only a I would I like to I would like to just say one second if you guys are joining the Hangout and mute your microphones until we talk to you because uh it's gonna be an anarchy otherwise thank you hmm i was gonna say just before um I get kicked out and go and there is an apple although wasn't up on the google play store and it's called the ubuntu phone experience i'm going to try and show us on camera and it gives you the favorites bar from the above all oh nice nice let me let me switch my camera to you so those stays there okay yeah yeah i feel like my favorites my favorite apps just talking if you to go right to the bottom it goes to your home you go to top and you can if you drive all the way to the side it just takes you to home so if say if i was in and that pier by dragging from the side to get the Wi-Fi carry on going it takes me back home nice you should link that to me on twitter well place it down it's in taken down man oh really yeah I I don't know if there's a DMCA request or anything but I'm i made a video at it on my youtube channel youtube com /d Dom you guys should say check it out um but dis YouTube pimp there yeah absolutely that's that's huge pimpin here that's right i am i made a video for mine and i was writing the notes to go in the description I said I'd link it and I was like ha it's gone missing don't ask I'll scrolling through the apps on my phone and the place I was like it's not here it's like this is on my phone i'm using it where is it gone and like the developer doesn't seem to be seen anything but um there is something else like that out there i don't know if it's quite the same but there's something very similar to that i'll have to look it up i'll post it on Twitter later today I behind it yeah I was all excited I grabbed my gs3 I'm like oh where is that F where is that and you're like it's gonna like oh go many good thank you very much for joining us welcome to we're expecting you next week to your you're a regular so you should have a a spot right here with the guys yes thank you very much see you next night hey guys my way I love the shades bro and I think that it's time for me to pick somebody is that right okay believe so let's talk to Reese luck would if I said your name right you need to unmute your microphone what happened good afternoon good afternoon whoa where are you from I'm from I was saving the episode yes you were that guy I knew that your name was was was familiar to me how is it going it's going great it's going great I just like to say welcome to the hook to the team to the new girl ice great to have here um thank you much thank you there I'm the man with the button all right and we needed that on Friday last Friday yeah in the first episode I was really excited for blackberry tan and I actually got the chance to test it out a in a local phone shop and and it's good but it's not quite there yet I don't q what is it the reefs that you don't like about it it's it's a learning curve unlike other phones like iOS with us phone ad and rivage you just pick them up and use them whereas with all of the swiping on blackberry 10 it takes a while to get used to it understand the gestures and it's somewhat more complicated especially for a novice user let any play devil's advocate for a second wouldn't you agree the evil android/ios as well as Windows Phone have had a certain learning curve in the early days in the first releases I mean blackberry 10 is a complete new platform it's supposed to have a learning curve the question is how long that curve is yeah yeah i agree i would say learning curve is quite is quite steep especially with the day app recent apps be an only thing i can't i can i think it makes sense but i think limiting a user to a apps is it's going to be quite a problem for a lot of people especially people who multitask and for example with social media now you're watching a YouTube video you want to check between Facebook Twitter and all of your the social apps eventually you're going to come to a cross point where you've got to close an app which is going to become a pain especially just the power users which is where I think blackberry is going to have that downfall good good good now if you would choose between let's say blackberry and windows phone seven points something so not windows phone 8 but previous 2 windows phone 8 what would you you think i'll probably go with blackberry with library and if it's a windows phone 8 Windows Phone 8 I thought upcoming yeah and although one feature i really do like on the on the barbie 10 is swiping thing that predicts what you're saying i need upbeat yeah I think that that's brilliant this really good and I don't gotta tweak on my iPhone that from jailbreaking it that does the same thing oh we gotta jailbreak user hey hey actually I got a question for you if you don't mind up just to pick the brain of a blackberry fan uh given a choice between you know some guy walks up to you and says here's a z10 here's a cute n you can have a physical keyboard or no physical keyboard which do you take z10 I've never been a fan of the keyboards are on the flattery all that much I mean no blasphemy okay it correct I agree with you Adam blackberry's had the best ever keyboards on this planet no no here we use the pre three keyboard pretty tricky boys pretty sweet you see these bones it's like eight keys right there he boards on blackberry were brilliant when when the phones were was central to emailing and texting whereas now as froze have developed to internet browsing I think that's big chunk of the keyboard on the q10 just takes up too much usable real estate I mean great if you're going to send a lot of messages and emails great for businesses as blackberry originally intended so for the main commercial market I think the z10 is going to be a big player for battery so long as they fix out the issues especially with the a app thing I think that's a really big flaw on that response excellent point with my previous publication that I worked with I did a piece instead blackberry if you're not first you're last and it was because they were shooting to be the third operating system obviously they had sites to be the first eventually but they said we're good enough to be the third ecosystem okay cool but the problem that I have with it is that I explained in that article was that they're not willing to give up the past to put it all behind them and start something totally new I agree with the fact that that keyboards are kind of dated now they don't really have a place in the mark I mean I guess they have a small little little space but but big screens or what's in and like we're really only halfway delivered on that so I kind of agree there i would i would go z10 I I would Barclay agree with you and I don't want to turn this into a debate between us but just the way in a little bit I think blackberry doesn't really want to get rid of its best because it's as fast that established it on the market i mean they still have 70 plus million users out of which most of them are probably businesses who either haven't switched to other platforms or haven't adopted yet to bring your own device to the business and i think they're trying to cater to exactly that specific market I mean you imagine you're a company with a hundred employees still running a bit blackberry bold line up and then BOOM blackberry 10 everybody's going to get the cute my personal preference i would try a queue i would totally track you I loved the plight of the bold 9900 I loved all of my blackberries that I've ever had but it was just surprising that they're just hanging on to that and nobody else is nokia HTC motorola all of them are just kind of getting rid of keyboards I think Motorola has one more coming out I don't know suppose Reese I have a question last question for you what do you expect from from mwc in two weeks from now what is it a week from now I'm not so ready I'm hoping somebody is going to come out with something big but that's what we all hope for for who and what I really don't know what was your money on um I don't know you guys in England you're always betting bet on something and I'm something big android-based something big that the new android is coming well I'm gonna put my money on so you'll notice it but yeah yeah play good say the odds are one to one something great thank you very much for joining us and you'll find us here every Friday to BM if everything goes according to our plan so thank you very much for dropping in see what Tony doesn't want to tell you is the reason he keeps asking about the mwc is cuz he just doesn't want to do anything there he just wants to have everybody tell him where to go look and sir yeah he doesn't impose more but I'll sleep in my hotel room and have michael fisher run the floor like crazy camera okay I know what you're looking forward to yeah I know you do Adam your turn yes sir I am gonna go with I'm gonna go with Matthias I got Brandolini I'm gonna do that for two reasons one because his first name is Matthias yeah secondly because he's no longer with us oh my god oh he left oh my goodness okay I was gonna say he looked like he was at work so I wanted to hook him up um he's like you already he'll come back all right well you know what we got we've got another guy who's waving his arms like crazy Marco Marco's it's Perez go ahead and go ahead and come on on come on Marcos what's up guys hey hey hey welcome um guys may not give me a son here and I'm performing some vehicular maintenance for him so I idea for the interruption here so here you go Michael's where are you from um I'm from New Jersey right now but I was born a good dominican republic great Adam back to you okay so uh alright so what's up I'm sorry I got really distracted here so um all right so I'm gonna call Tony's question what do you expect to see from the mwc this year that's always a winning question it is a winning question I know well I'm waiting for the HTC m7 that's the phone i want to get I've been on HTC fancies the first original evil I had the evo 3d now I have the 4g LTE nice yeah what I love is it about the rumors of the HTC m7 or the AKA HTC one that excites you most um definitely the screen quality and ultrapixel camera the older which we have today that it might be called Z something I will VOE yeah that is true yeah you think that HTC will deliver on camera quality I mean I personally tried to cut some slack to HTC and I really hope the HTC One X would deliver in terms of imaging quality but it just sucked and I just keep on saying this every time it's done yeah I step off man he's got that good as they wanted to sobe but I from their mistakes right now and it's like I cannot deliver cocoa ok guys i would like to kindly ask you to mute your microphones if you are not talking to us so that we keep this thing a little bit more organized thank you very much friendlier mind after you Marcus all right um yeah that that's what that's really what I'm looking for too I didn't WC ok now we we we talk about what we wanted to talk about let's talk about what you want to talk about um well I want to ask you and Tony um what ways you're the first one to two always post something yeah I'm you wake up like really early in the morning right cuz I'm a time like every time I gotta work I'm always so now if before I gotta work on the past when I'm gonna break at work when i get up work before i got a scoop after i get out of school and when I gotta sleep I'm always stop talking now lenghas yeah that the first thing I always sees your post you're the first to post on the on the for the day is yours the thing is I do wake up early but not that early you see I am in Europe and Eastern Europe and I am seven hours ahead of you so right now it's 930 p.m. so when I wake up in the morning at seven p.m. at 7am that's midnight Eastern so I'm covering the overnight news shift whenever I'm not planning for mwc more thing else and this is the reason why you guys see my posts when you wake up in the morning and that's the idea okay um something else um I know you you're big ipad fan I eat you if I can say because you have the ipad mini and all that stuff will you choose and Nexus 10 instead of up an ipad for the nexus 7 instead of an ipad 4 or an ipad mini well no let's plan a nexus 10 because they have both of these and if i would probably allow myself to get nexus 10 and the ipad 4 I would run with both you see that the good thing of this job which which we all are doing is that we whether we like it or not we have to use everything which that's out there the rest of personal preference to answer your question I will be completely honest with you I have not laid my hands on the Nexus 10 because it's unfortunately not available here in this part of Europe so I I couldn't tell you whether I would prefer the nexus 10 over the ipad 4 if I would make a decision only based on specific asians and ecosystem i would still run with the ipad 4 because the app selection which is out there and which is important to me in my day-to-day usage all right you mind if i chime in sure yeah yeah any nexus 10 um i Justi just had to do that like twisting at night I got mine right here um I just sold my my third generation iPad and it's not because the the nexus tin or anything like that it's actually trained it and got an ipad mini um but i would actually also choose the ipad over the nexus 10 only only because the display on the nexus 10 is so great nothing really takes advantage of it yeah i mean there's only a few apps that actually really take advantage of it watching movies is absolutely amazing on it but you open up facebook which there's no android tablet happy for facebook to open up facebook or a twitter app there or something like that and it's just kind of hunkered down and stretch or ninety five percent white it looks awful and that really takes away from the whole experience it's a great tablet i have someone you love it it's been a whole lot of time with it but i would still choose like that even if I like that nexus 10 better well and i have a nexus 10 right here and i really liked it um the app selection is not that important to me cuz the stuff that I do here is not that you know how I don't use Facebook that much twitter I use it on my whoa I actually have a note too so I understand yeah I'm like Captain two phones Michael Fisher hahaha yeah I have fishers like now captain 12 phones or side yeah I have my note 2 in my HTC before guilty and my nexus 10 here you go you have a mind that my daily driver driver right now is the note 2 I had to change um account with my carrier so I had to get the note 2 but I'm looking forward to for the HTC and seven I really want that phone yeah I want that phone to it I'm just a little bit afraid that it's gonna be 2012 all over again when the HTC One X was such a great buzz and boom and wcnn samsung came and boom killed it at birth with the s3 we're excited about the m7 and I'm afraid that the s4 is gonna just wipe it off the floor maybe I talked to HTC at CES i sat down with him twice actually and talk with him and they said that's one of the reasons they didn't do anything at all at CES all they did was talk with us and one of the reasons was that they don't want to be shadowed by Samsung or a whole entire tech conference and that's one thing that's one reason they're probably not going to be very active it in mwc either it's going to be mainly this event on the 19th yeah looking forward to that yeah me too yeah that's how I established my relationship with HTC I best this sucker before it came out nice Marcos thank you very much for joining us we'll just have to keep moving forward and talk to more and more people but we're waiting for you to come back next week all right thank you very much for having me today and I just want to say thank you to I mean nothing yeah thank you you guys and welcome welcome Adam and wait Taylor entail yeah pain I forgot your name Josh I just I used to see you I your your other side too and people were complained that you weren't good at videos and stuff like that but I really like the videos that you had over there to a nice really good to see you here yeah they've done a lot for me taught me some things yeah you have improved a lot and keep up the good work guys thank you thank you keep reading all right I will and watching okay I think it's your turn now sorry and dehydrated um okay because joseph has been like he's gonna like lose his arms if it doesn't matter so I'm not even gonna try to pronounce your last name either so cuz I'm really bad at pronunciation and and phonetic stuff no last name I swear it's fine how's it going gone good actually siren anyone remembers this holy crail yeah Harris Wow oh yeah actually don't let me take a shot out of that is it is it Acevedo yeah yeah you got it boom I think there's a baseball player with that name so that's your reason I know so I mean I guess you can call me another captain two phones there you go oh what a what HP is that it's the pre 333 baby i'm a little jealous just a woman I like the dog you know whatever the life comes up ruling and whenever I see an HP fo diced art drooling so yeah yeah man I'm actually I also have the touch pad I'm like trying to get get it on to have jellybeans in it you know get signage in my den and blasphemy well I mean I already have it here and I want to like try out jellybeans oh whoa wait let me get this straight you want to have an HP tablet that runs android I've got good news for you anyway so I even cut you out there go ahead yeah like um also because of the app selection that's kind of been killing me this whole time you know I got worried well i say i have i have a touchpad am i actually to touch pads I have one in my wife has one and I got one for my wife for her for her birthday last year and the first thing she wanted out it was draw something I'm like seriously okay so fine so I put cm9 on it and I booted it up in the CM night and she hasn't looked back since but my touchpad still running the original webos I've still and actually i'll give a shout out to one of my Chicago peeps mark creeping me and George burry both put ubuntu on my on my touchpad so i can i could run the a bunch a bun to card so that's pretty sweet and i use i've actually recorded something with audacity in a bun to on my touchpad i'm very proud of that so so yeah I took steam 9 off of my touchpad I haven't looked back since because it was just too much of a pain to go back and forth in between oh I want to use glimpse so I'm gonna go to webos now and no now I want to do you know words with friends so I'm going to go back yeah it was too much of a pain so I got the I got the gs3 so that kind of filled my android fix I took cm9 off I haven't looked back so well I don't have my android pick until maybe about May because i'm planning on getting the HTC one i'm calling it the one because it'll fit the last year thing a bit more okay what what happens when you'll get the HTC one in May and google announces android 5.0 key lime pie in may i don't know i'm not i don't really like care about the newest thing all the time as long as i get what I've wanted for a while you know what I mean yeah but you know it's gonna be a major release it's a five-point oh it's not a point release yeah that's that's always the ones look lady creek here since five that's what I've been waiting for all right I always tell myself that that you know I don't need the latest update or anything like my door I nice important as I've been updated yet I haven't got 4.2 that too but every time I say that it's like there's that one tiny little feature that I know i'm going to use maybe once or twice a month that i just it kills me and i always end up updating or something so i also cannot wait for a boon siew i can't wait for open level west yeah i actually can't wait for that um library 10 is actually pretty interesting to me i think i think that they'll actually jump over windows phone mmm all right tall order yeah let me get let me say something so that will switch to me i am up to date i'm sorry i'm still not on 4.2 point2 so i'm waiting again I'll check the bugs fixed on that exit seven does I heard that there is a lot of issues with it when it updated to 4.2 point one no I don't have any problems with it well Michael's been complaining and the other guys on the team that the dragon you have they bury Michael over and over again with that truth be told Michael uses the nexus 7 as his daily driver I'm using it as my second tablet so I'm not that used to knowing every frame of and every response time of every icon and every that oh yeah and I got my brother getting the next 27 by the way which one is the next I got him with the nexus 7 I think it's 16 gigs it's the black one because he's racist we're not allowed to say that here wow it's it's a little technology joke I have okay we got it okay let's move on you just completely kill the conversation there chief stay here okay let me drop you the MVC bomb tell me your predictions for MVC I think that we will see nothing from HTC like I think they're just going to stick to that one their own thing now because like Samsung's doing it apples on it for years okay how badly Rangers or low end phones I mean HTC oh we're always has at least two or three phones in their portfolio yeah yeah maybe that but like I don't like it you're just you're not gonna see much buzz from HTC and nwc nanami who's gonna who's gonna win the show you may fear samsung no MVC I mean Samsung is gonna be

with hi May last year at mwc they were showing it off but they wouldn't let us touch it and we went to the Android booth which I understand that this year will be missing and there we could have some really short hand zones I really like the phone especially that was an iteration I think wasn't the hero which had the first Qin uh yeah I think so yeah let's wanna go into it on ever I think yes one of its kind so you guys are Android guys and girls yeah yeah definitely with if there was if there wasn't android on this planet what would be your platform of choice ah loved one well i had i hadn't

920 a lot of choice like those and actually both of them yeah there you and Lady not blackberry why not blackberry I got dere very unimpressive even with the z10 I'm not really impressed is it because of your day-to-day usage you think you wouldn't find all the applications you need or is it they a thing blackberry's never been impressive and they don't have a lot of apps anyway they're just stealing from a android market mmm yeah poor thing over let's use that that's okay i say ceiling to so must be an interesting I like the I like the blackberry hub feature on the z10 a lot but that's about all it's got my eye that's the one thing I miss about blackberry is universal inbox where I can get text messages emails and everything in one little central location yeah miss that so much okay

it's it normally you're just very patient you know it's good you haven't been waving your arms you've just been sitting there just like pick me pick Mother's annoyed love you left me too all right well there you go so you've been rewarded what do you wanna talk about and you you go to the hook you need to figure it out when sitting at our quiet that whole time I didn't think of one thing you wanted to ask us no no no really okay all right that's right then tell us where are you from and what are you using and what's your platform of choice your apps of choice we have plenty to talk okay I'm from Georgia that's why we may be so complicated it's not talking at all and I have a historical piece here look oh my god is that Wow sony ericsson k850i key hold on kyle is showing 12 oh it's the same phone is that the same phone oh my god wow that's all for us let me switch back to Georgie so now is that now let me understand that is that a keyboard that only has like ten keys on it i don't understand that look thank you got it oh my god no i don't know i don't even know what that is it's 90 AD yet with the team hey letting us providing time travel thank you very much I'm here all week all right all right so okay so you've got that phone there with the with all ten keys on it let's say you drop that phone in the street and it gets run over by a steamroller now you need to go out and get a new phone and are you gonna go smartphone you're gonna go you're gonna go another ericsson you know another like a feature phone I want to go home but not that here okay all right so what what what do you have available in your area what's what's what's out what's out there negative 4 is really available here come on haha but if you if we calculate the currency it's like four times more than the original price or time I can't live with that but at least it's available ok I will go talk because over come on come on come on seriously you know the slightly related but not completely related note i saw a story yesterday about how dobby creative suite premium god mode is available in australia for like i want to say it was like 2,000 or 2,500 dollars more than it was in america so it actually some and some one did the math and they figured out it was actually cheaper to fly to Los Angeles by the software and fly home then it would be to buy it on Australian soil so Adam Levin don't tell you a little secret yeah is he or not from a country that needs a visa to enter the u.s. so I just so maybe what you could do is you could you could hop on a plane and fly to you know draw you can fly to Georgia USA and pick up a nexus 4 and then head on back and you know you save some yourself some green there you go the body that is none of the side ship into our country we have to mail it in the US and then they have to fly lower back here that's how it works wow that's crazy there's only does it cost four times as much it takes four times as long to get it to it probably does but I don't know why your practical hi George I have a question because I'm desperately trying to find somebody who's in my same and the same shoes with me do you have all the services available in the Google Play Store for my service do you have because I can only buy apps and that's it no books no mp3's no videos nothing no content in the Google Thor yep I can't practically buy anything on the Google Play Store bit it always tell me it's not available in my country on everything even on the flu you act so so you have a selection of music for instance or you can purchase videos or you just have them listed and you cannot buy them because they're not available in your country have them little bit but I can't buy them so it's the same set finally thank you somebody who understands me that's awful that's terrible yeah it is absolutely i buy so many movies and things from google play I would and how much would i use my Nexus Q I have an excess cute what else would I do with it Georgie thank you very much for joining us in the heavyweight weekend ok see ya bye bye take care who goes next either i think it's yordan its Taylor yeah it's me and I'll be the last one wanna I don't know it depends may it might be the last call it might be the one before it I don't know I like I can't like blind pig can I have no idea um ET meeny miny moe it or something what's a coin I'm gonna pick the one I can pronounce their name and okay yeah those are bad there was a bad choice I'm out any of these names I'm sorry um we're gonna go with the med I think you've been in here for a while too haven't you imed yeah one major assault hello unmute there you go hey welcome Andy with me here on the first episode right from Malaysia yes uh yeah my memory still works yes yeah nice how Alicia oh it's good nice of this yeah I was actually thinking about actually visiting actually i am from Saudi Arabia but because I said it um I'm sitting in Malaysia that's why i live now I hmm I was actually gonna visit Malaysia with a friend of mine but now you're gonna go to Saudi Arabia a lark dr malaysia is very nice that's what I'm really really very very nice in this well i'm pretty jealous right down cuz we just had the nice blizzards that rolled through the Midwest and then up to the northeast so I got a ton of snow here if you want something I could ship it to you use it Adam FYI bacon by their own snow yes i watch The Amazing Race I know so I've you bring in the snow it will be Mel diet go it's very very hot in Middle East yeah it's smiled Here I am I hate it there are no seasons here anymore it's just mild all year long it used to be really hot in the summer really cold the winner and now it's just kind of straight shot across the board ah ok so after this short live weather report what do you want to talk about it's either each other we talk about what you want to talk about or we'll talk about what we want to talk about actually I will start with a windows phone tablets or Windows Phone ah sorry when the windows 8 tablet or Windows 8 laptop I was thinking is there any laptop that is very powerful like the old laptops something like GT GT 70 from MSI or toshiba cause qosmio something like this now this is a very tricky question first of all because all the windows 8 that i have seen now it's really is something like a notebook it's it's not that powerful laptop something like an old laptop has an nvidia graphic card has 16 wrong there are 16 gigabyte I need something very powerful I will give you an answer which will disappoint you we can talk about laptops is not a problem but because they are not our scope of coverage we are not on top of news and a personal even if not if a tablet darn it yeah if it has to be windows power then you have to choose between the surface pro or the surface RT or any other tablets running Windows 8 or Windows RT at the back end if V is specific here windows 8 pro with this I of T is nothing okay you said it but okay so out of the way windows do you have the surface pro available in your country I don't think so ah no not yet I samsung has a couple of offerings running Windows 8 bro if i recall well they introduced them at Aoife they even showed it off at CES then i think a sous also has some if you guys have any specific models and mine Taylor or Adam please feel free to interrupt me yeah actually I was searching this morning about this laptop from toshiba I just posted on the shot qosmio x8 70 series the transients but it's very powerful has third generation processor from Intel also one terabyte ah invitas you sources what what will you do with that much power what is it that you do that needs that much power do you at videos multimedia rendering yeah multimedia and during programming many things like this understood so I noticed my university is only like this yeah I stay out of laptop discussions I'm just I'm just a mobile guy that the best i can recommend you is an apple product and it's not because i'm trying to imply anything it's I was a Windows user my entire life since my first computer up until last year when I made the switch razor edge we hear it from Gregory thank you very much but I have made the switch to the apple ecosystem and I'm finding I am more productive and I can for instance I was rendering videos on windows using Sony Vegas Pro on a six core computer which I built myself for years ago with two gigs of video ram and the 32 gigs of ram but it turns out that on on an imac i can render the same video in maybe one third of the time and that means a lot to me when I'm pressured and I need to have content out there for instance when I'm at mwc or Aoife I shoot something I need to upload as soon as possible yeah actually I have no problem with a billboard that but I have to switch the windows if I want a gaming or other multimedia so that is true but you can run windows an apple product yeah okay one more question is about tablets do you like if you want to buy a tablet you will get windows 8 pro or Android or iOS which one you prefer okay Taylor I'm for me are as much as I hate to say it I pad just because the apps are there there's just so much more content if I had my choice if if app for Android had more optimized applications that would go with it all day hands down for a tablet but the applications just aren't there yet there's just so much I guess lack of optimization so that's where that's where the ipad really has I guess an edge on the rest of the competition in the tablet market Adam uh it's actually funny I had a friend of mine asked me right before Christmas he was looking for for a tablet you know for his family and he asked me you know what do you recommend and I've just say olive and it's such a question so what ended up happening was I ended up writing a very long email just kind of detailing like here's what this helmet has here's what that habit has blah blah blah um what a what a boil down to was I came down to either an iPad or a nexus 7 mostly because the nexus 10 at least at the time wasn't available I don't know if it is these days or not but I mean it really depends on what you want to do with it I'd say the easy answer the comfortable answer is to go with the iPad just because it's what it's what everybody has it's probably the best supported tablet out there but you know at the same time you know the Nexus 7 is a very very awesome tablet it's got you know the google now is there and you know there's a lot of apps there i mean it's just a mat it's just a question of what you're what you really want to do with it also the nexus 7 does offer the app possibility of sideloading flash if that's important to you so if you've made me choose of tablet right now here's what you're going to use at least for the next year I would go with the nexus 7 but that's mostly because I hate everything Apple so it's a it's a it's it's a completely it's a completely unjustified bias and I acknowledge that but there it is I would probably go nexus 7 myself yeah I kind of want to add just a hair to mine if you're going large tablet i would say iphone or an iphone iOS ipad if you're going on a small tablet i have ipad mini and the nexus 7 i would actually go Nexus 7 so there is that I agree with Adam on that if you're going smaller tablets yes i would go next 27 if you're going full size 10 inch ipad just for the optimization I've met do you have your answers how about your answer ah my answer okay so um I am an Apple user I'm using the iPad but if I had the opportunity to have the google nexus 10 available here i would probably use the nexus 10 i would also give it a shot on a short to mid-term to the surface pro and probably leave my ipad and the drover for the next six months so there's there's my answer thank you with that I think we we ran out of time Ahmed thank you very much for joining us and thank you very much everybody for joining us we apologize if we didn't manage to get to everybody in time we're limited to one hour but we are trying to do our best I know that there are several people we didn't talk to hope to see you guys next
