The last time I had to renew my registration, I did it online because they stopped charging a service fee, and it was real easy.

I've experienced just the opposite. The DMV always sucked for me... Takes hours to just update data. I went to a DMV express place, and I was in and out in under 5 minutes for a title transfer...

    Whatever you call them, the DMV experience in AZ used to be
    awesome and provided top notch customer service.  Then the budget
    crunch came along and the state decided to close most or all of
    it's own offices and farm the work out to private companies which
    only care about making a few buck off us and customer service is
    now a joke.

                did I read that correctly in that you think the DMV
                tries to turn a profit AND use that money to improve
                the customer experience?

                Have you been to the DMV?


                Sorry... when someone tees it up like that, I have to
                take a swing :)

                    I have the DNA, and while i love the device i hate
                    the stock HTC Sense experience. however after
                    unlocking, rooting, and the like the custom rom i
                    have is pretty nice and allows me to get a more
                    AOSP feel to the device. And the development on
                    getting Cyanogen to run is very close, they just
                    had a breakthrough yesterday and got the radois to
                    work, next is WiFi and audio i think.

                    Also the dust plug on the bottom will come off on
                    you pretty readily, and the speaker on minimum
                    volume is actually quite loud still.

                    that's enough of the bad.

                    The good. the screen resolution is the best i have
                    seen in a handheld device ever. it is large
                    without feeling clunky (its actually quite
                    comfortable to hold and work with, and it is very
                    fast. The battery i get an average of 12-14 hours
                    of use out of the device with medium heavy load,
                    and more with light load. the sound with beats
                    enabled sounds very good, to the point i can hear
                    the difference in lower quality streams now where
                    previous devices i could not. the camera is fast,
                    and very responsive. and the screen is amazing...
                    yes i did mention it twice. it is that nice.

                    If you have any specific questions let me know.
                    but i like you dont play more than maybe one or
                    two games, and its mostly an internet device i can
                    make calls on.

                    Side note SSH is a bit interesting, as you have
                    more screen real-estate to work with, but if you
                    are not careful you may need a magnifying glass to
                    read the screen, i suggest an ssh client like
                    connect-bot that will let you change your font
                    size a bit.

                    I chose this over the Note2, S3, and N4. While the
                    N4 has all the cool development, the DNA was a
                    nicer device to use, physically. and i actually
                    like the hardware buttons so they are not actually
                    eating up part of my screen space.

                        Hi,

                        I'm thinking about making the move to a smart
                        phone. I am looking at the DROID DNA by HTC
                        that Verizon is offering for $199.

                        I am interested in a smart phone because I
                        would like to use it to take pictures, capture
                        video, and edit video, so I can manage my blog
                        and social media. I might even use it as a phone.

                        As an example usage:  I went to DMV about a
                        year ago to update my title after paying off
                        my car.  I had to wait over an hour.  DMV
                        charges for the service they provide. I
                        suspect the state has reduced the number of
                        people assisting customers due to budget
                        constraints. I also suspect that the DMV turns
                        a profit and if so that money needs to be used
                        to create a better customer service experience.

                        If I would have had a smart phone I could have
                        interviewed several people, uploaded the video
                        to YouTube.com, written an article for my
                        blog, added some tweets to my twitter account,
                        and updated my Facebook page, all while waiting.

                        This is an example as to why I want to upgrade
                        to a smart phone and what my expectations are.

                        I'd be interested in what your thoughts might
                        be about the DROID DNA, Verizon, and how I
                        expect to use the phone.

                        Thank you!!
