One word posts for the next few years. :D

That's what 6 more AMS threads for me. Anyways it is good to have goals in life.

Because VZW uses CDMA instead of GSM and the smartphone people don't want to spend the $ to develop the phone for a somewhat limited market.

Good night all. I have to wake up at 4:45 am again for work tomorrow :rolleyes:

I can't imagine doing that on mine.....it took me long enough to research and put in the flights with most of the flight numbers and aircraft types. It might be cool to know how much tarmac time I've really spent waiting for the :rolleyes: at EWR to clear up. Where's the site you'd go to to research it?

The free in network calls (everyone I call teh most has VZW) and the 22% monthy discount are keeping me with VZW. If it was not for that I would be outta there.

probably the main reason I do not go over to them.

Putting in a flight you know was horribly delayed and checking the 'All Statistics' box, the system will tell you, in minutes, how long your ground delay was.

Since you're new to playing with that site, a friendly caution. Do it backwards. What I mean by that: searching for CO arrivals/departures into/from an outstation is much easier than searching by hub departures. Commonsense, but searching hub originating flights is a great way to want to kill yourself. Also, with RJ's, it's not the paint on the jet but the operator.

BTS will also give you tail numbers, which as we all know is the ssullivan gold FM standard. You can go to the FAA N-Number tool and put in the tail number to get the exact details of the aircraft...735 instead of 737, etc. One can also convert CO PDA site ship to tail numbers by going here.

My wife and I stayed there this past week and enjoyed it. We were not in a suite but were upgraded to a lake view (I am SPG Plat). Room was very pleasant, not too dark (various shades of brown instead of black), and quiet. The summer-winter unit air conditioning was a little annoying but not too terrible. The nightclub seems to be quite the scene but we did not partake.

The motives for staying there were the presence of a Bliss spa, proximity to the Magnificent Mile, view of the lake, and advice from The Box. I know FT Lurker does not like this property but I thought it was nice, and I'll be staying there again (this time for work) in a couple of weeks.

I'm pretty sure that "Listen to the Band" is one of those songs they played themselves (Mike Nesmith wrote and sung the song).

Thanks Mike....I'll play with it and see if it's a project worth tackling. For 1000+ flights, it should take me just about 'til next decade.

We will drag you to the resident minority level of geekery kicking and screaming if we must. Resistance is futile.

my roommate got a letter saying that there is a warrant out for his arrest.

Craigslist = best place to find roommates.

Extra foam, plz. ^

I didn't put one and one together until after I walked past her. I wasn't going to be "that guy" that turned around and busted out my cell phone cam. My care level was about a .1.
