After much thought I decided to return it since I cant always be right next to a charger. I really liked the phone and all the features but the short battery life was a deal breaker.

That is a smartphone for you, my friends that carry an iphone even carry a usb charger with them everywhere...

Looks like CO1491 had some drama yesterday. Hopefully when we are on it next Friday it will be slightly less adventurous.

Hope it turns out well, either way you will be wit your honey!! :)

Had a nice evening with my brother last night. His first time in NY and we just sat around and shot the $hit till 2a. He'll see a lot of different sides of the city today/tonight though. :cool:

That sounds like fun! Did he come to NYC just to see you or for an event?

Morning, Box.

Morning, Box. Off to ROA for the day for my first ever Southern Baptist wedding...oddly enough, despite living in the Deep South for 2 years, all the weddings I went to were Catholic. Interesting. The bride made a joke to me a while ago about how we were "free to bring flasks." :p Has anyone ever actually done that?!?

If we book it, we should make it just in time for USA-Ghana kickoff at some establishment. :)

Trustguy and msv, sorry to hear about your tough days yesterday. Looked like the common ingredient was wine. :p Hope you're both feeling a little better this morning!

Aye, when colpuck, COFreqFlyer, and I hopped on NJ Transit from EWR to Newark Penn, it was like that. We didn't have luggage, but it was standing room only and not particularly pleasant.

Fixed.

It was certainly expensive as hell. And I particularly enjoyed the fact that a weekend ticket from EWR to New York Penn was less expensive than an EWR to Newark Penn.

You stay classy, New Jersey.

I found a cell phone holder for the boys of the box!

For the ladies and gay men of the box, I bring you more reasons to cheer on the World Cup!

I think that is a tax on people who are loony enough to want to go to Newark on the weekend.

One can tell because his posts are covered in glitter.
