Iphone is for a typical consumer. People who don't give a crap about techy things. They just want a reliable smart phone that can reliably get email, pictures, etc. Iphone does it all with the most intuitive interface out there.

Techie nerds tend to prefer droid because they can do so much more with it that 95% of the public could care less about.

OK, I wasn't gonna get in on this one, but I can't resist... come on now Zod. I don't hate on the iPhone, it essentially started the super smart phone revolution, but I'm not buying what you're selling here. My wife has an X and she is without question the least techy person on this entire planet, and she loves it. Checks email, surfs the web, uses navigation all without problem... even set it up all by herself with some brief assistance from the Verizon tech when she got it.

I'm sure there are still a lot of people that will get iPhones when they come to Verizon... and a good bit of it IMO will be due to AT&T. In this area (southeast NC) AT&T sucks donkey ass... I know multiple people that have had it and hated it because the service is so bad.

I won't believe it. There have literally been hundreds of "unnamed sources confirming" the iPhone on Verizon since the first one was realized back in 2007. Untill I see Steve Jobs on stage in a black turtle neck with the Verizon logo behind him I just take it as another rumor

If this happens I'll probably pick one up and at least try it for a couple of weeks to see if I like it since I'm due for an annual upgrade on my account in January. I doubt I will end up keeping it for good though since I absolutely love the Android OS and it's "freedom"....

      Schedule Release: Leaks and Rumors

      By Kentucky Panther · Posted

      Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season.

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.

      Favorite JAG 2020+

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
