That's the beauty of S&T and why we'll miss it. You could d/l poi files and know where every weigh station, or rest area, or Walmart, or Truck Stop was. And I love that when I find a good overnight sleep spot or great restaurant I can save it for future reference. Lately I'm falling into a...

I think you're looking for a silver bullet that doesn't exist in this case. Sure you can zip up a spreadsheet or a data file and make it smaller, but video formats are already compressed. I mean, that's the whole point of the format - a means to deliver video in a compressed format with...

This is what I need to be doing too. Just call Verizon with the id number off the back of the phone to make sure it's not stolen before paying the guy and I'm golden, right? Btw, I also use a Sprint data card (ExpressCard slot) and my old card has had issues lately so I bought a card on Ebay...

I'm on Verizon now. The $200 matters to me but what attracts me with the Nexus is the open architecture and lack of bloatware.

I don't even use many gigs and it's even cheaper for me. Every year I check out the latest Google Nexus only to find out it won't run on Verizon. Hopefully they're about due to kiss and make up. Maybe next year. My screen is looking pretty tiny.

I'm on the Verizon grandfathered deal too but I only get 3G (original Droid). Did you buy an unlocked 4G phone so you could stay on your plan?
