I don't completely agree with this. For one Android is so much limping along slowly, so much as it is growing in the consumer division for those people who really don't want AT&T or Apple. I have seen many of a people choose an Android phone over Windows Mobile and iPhone. However you are right when you say the corporate problems that Android has. Android does not offer the type of security that Windows Mobile does when dealing with encryption standards, profiles, or anything you would need for the corporate infrustructure when dealing with PII. However, if you are looking at it from strictly a corporate standpoint wouldn't Blackberry be MS biggest competitor when dealing with that market as they have had a stranglehold on it due to what they support? As I have worked in both the DOD and DOE only the blackberry is used to sync to their network. So saying that Android is limping along is invalid, since if you look outside the corporate infrastructure they have done nothing but grow.

Ok I am going to go with GOOD! Honestly I would rather have them paying attention to what they are doing. They chose the job of flying planes and regardless of whether or not theres autopilot I want them paying attention. The have a copilot so if they need to take a break to get some coffee or hit the head they can. But really they shouldn't be occupying themselves with facebook or anything of the sort. I want to be SAFE...maybe this could be a reason for some of the crashes where people say well "its unexplained" as of right now.

I have to agree with yakatz as ISPs can do whatever it is they please being that they are not regulated. Though many people are saying hey it in Hong Kong not the U.S, do you really think that will stop companies like Comcast from doing the same thing. My advice is that we all start using TOR and https: as a way of bypassing this. As I am on /. I would assume people know how to hide who they are and take advantage of knowing how to work around people forcing you to go to a specific DNS.

Thanks for the update, I will probably take a look at it then since I also have a MOTO Droid. I will provide feedback as well once I get into using it.

I see what your saying, however I have very bad luck with phones for some reason. So for me to put something on that is pre-alpha is a little sketchy and thats just my opinion. By all means I appreciate the people that will test it and say whether or not it causes major issues especially if they are running a Droid. I am no programmer, I may be a techie but when it comes to anything with programming not so much. I build, repair, troubleshoot, and use beta's on computers, but phones not so much do to my luck with them. Keep in mind I run 3-4 different OS because I like to differentiate what I use depending on what my purpose to being on the PC at that point is. I have been using Google Chrome is before it was finalized and vista and 7 both since they were in beta, so i have no problem using them. But when I known issue is that it will run slow when loading larger pages (wich i visit quite often on my phone) and it is specifically mentioning my phone, well then I will wait. Again I am not bashing it I simply and giving my opinion and I hope other people can tell me it works better than expected.

Trust me I was enthusiastic about it until I finished reading and got to the point where it said looking at pages with a lot of information will cause issues with low memory devices like the Droid. I was all of 2 seconds away from downloading it until I seen that. I have no problem with bugs and the like but when there are issues with memory utilization on devices specifically my phone then I would prefer to wait until those issues are resolved. I don't mind bugs but slowness due to memory problems I do mind.

Understandable only to a point. All sales droids should know the facts about what they sell. I used to be in retail and sold computers, I excelled where many failed, since I didn't lie to customers I rarely if ever had a return. I knew what I was talking about so I didn't just read of random BS. Any good company will tell you to KNOW your product before you try to sell to someone. I think this just comes back to Comcast possibly offering poor training to their salespeople.

I would have to agree with the OP, I have seen many IT "Experts" get viruses and malware. It can happen to anybody. What should be done as is done in the military is to create an awareness course of the do's and dont's of computer security. Then from there depending on the willingness also offer some form of tutorial on Office Programs or any other program they may be using.

This is true that once FF "WORKS" on Android we can use those things. However, TheKidWho makes a valid point. If this isn't going to work great on the Droid and has bugs that are more than likely going to crash the phone and for reboots, Why would I dl this now and risk that. Also valid is gnud with the fact that unless you want to debug and/or develop for this browser I don't see many people going to FF just yet. I personally thought about it but the comment of high memory utilization means it won't work well on my Droid turned me off to it. Once these bugs are worked out though, I will definately be using FF for my dedicated browser.

Nope haven't had to deal with Charter, however if they are worse then comcast then hell they can fall right in line with Adelphia and rest assured more than likely comcast will buy them out soon enough. So all in all wither way were screwed when it comes to cable...unless of course you can get Satelite which has its own issues though the programming and pricing are better, or better yet get FIOS since I never had a problem price wise or customer service wise with them.

Yes, funny enough it is available right next door to the complex at a 7-11 type store. Who do I have to talk to to get this installed, because I HATE COMCAST.

The guy that came to install my cable and internet since they wouldn't let me, couldn't even get it configured because I had a router in place. I had to do it myself to get it working. This guy was a complete tool but atleast I made sure he didn't install shit on my computer with the excuse of "oh well you need this to operate." I love how everyone falls for that whenever some dumb tech from these companies says well I need to install this so your modem will work. This is complete BS since all Comcast or any other service provider needs to do is allow the MAC to contact their network.

Well see stupid me didn't do my homework on their internet connections before I agreed to the higher speed because when I was looking for a better deal the ladies words were well you can get 20 Meg down for $10 more a month, I thought well Ok since I do tend to get more than I need regardless of cost since I can't get the better service. But then I talked to a guy on the phone later to try to get better deals and he said I had 16Meg down which I have to say had me confused. His reasoning was well it depends it is officially 16-20Meg. Needless to say I was highly pissed off since I know you never get the full bandwith your promised but honestly dont give me the BS of well its 20 Meg down and then have someone tell me Well its actually 16 - 20.

Unfortunately my phone drops from 3g to 1x at times in my apt so tethering is out of the question. Plus I have a PS3 and need the broadband connection for my MW gaming, and the amount of downloads I do at times for school and training i really do not want to be working off of a tethered internet. My way around it will be when I move again I will make sure that FIOS or some other service I prefer is available before making my selection of where I move to.

So basically its Xfinity sandpaper, but Comcast cock, now I get it...haha
