Hi Folks.
i would just like to comment on this subject.
First of all, yes, that would be amazing if hims and gw-micro
could make it into a cell phone.
Just to tell you, I have a sam sung intensity from virizon and I
hate the thing.
The text to speech is very very very nasty.
So yes, it would be nice to have a cell phone, a book sense, and
neo speech all in a wonderful device.
That's what I have to say on the subject.
Thanks.
Tyler Juranek
