[POLL] Phone way too hard to handle when drunk?

Haha just for comic relief i wanted to start this thread :d
anyone else having huge problems with this phone when being drunk?
I accidently dropped the phone last thursday. I was in a club and my back cover flew off! Haha

I thought about this topic too, but I can't answer this question yet...
With my old D750 I was able to call any contact I wanted - at all time. Actually without dropping the phone or dial a wrong number
I don't know how, but I've managed it

You missed a few options:
"No, its just as hard to use SOBER never mind drunk!"
"Yes, but no harder than any other phone.".

Ah yes, i don't think there is a way to edit the poll though Are these options true for you? I think it's pretty easy when sober but my other phones were much easier when leaning against the wall of a bar and trying to text message with double vision lol

ahhahah when i'm really drunk i can't use my phone but i can't walk on my feet too

Just think, it's a new selling point>
X1 may save your relationship.. NO more embarrasing drunk calls!

hhahahaah

hehe, ever i not drunk now, still have chances to miss click with finger, lol

Well... maybe its better to not call when being drunk, so that you wont call people sleeping innocent at 4/5 in the morning.. i had that on my p990i the next morning i saw that i called 5 numers but that was much like 341426 and that number doesnt exists ..

i wouldnt risk damaging it lol...so i use my old w580i when i go out. But if i were drunk in the house with my x1 i'd probably say it was harder than some other phones simply cause of the touchscreen.

Maybe this is an idea for a new panel, one that is very easy to use when you are drunk and has taxis and kebab shops on speed dial, lol

Nice thread
I find the phone fine on most occasions, but like someone said a while back, never buy this phone for your girlfriend/mother/grandmother (unless they're relatively geeky and have a bit more patience than your average, erm, trying not to dig myself a hole here, but you get what I mean).
It's not the most intuitive phone to use, but when setup properly with a nice GUI it can be easier to use. It's just that with basic WM you have to be quite accurate with the stylus/finger. And as we all know, accuracy goes out of the window when you're drunk...

Engravin's

Hi all.
I've made up my mind and I am going to buy a N1 tomorrow, But I don't know what to get engraved on it....
!Im not looking to re-sell it!
So I was wondering if anyone has any ideas or if you would mind sharing what you have got on yours.
Oh. I don't mind the shipping delay either

I didn't get mine engraved, but I thought about it, if I did I would have got,
The death of the "cool"

I would have put "Insert Engraving Here"

"iPhone was here"

I have "if it is stuck force it if it breaks it needed to be replaced" also I had mine engraved and had it the next day. No wait

lol damn i was hoping you were... haha that would be 2 perfect huh?
I may go engrave mine later, i know a guy who does laser engraving which is what it looks like google did...
i was thinking "the force is strong with this one..."
or a bible verse...
or some other inspirational quote, "People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people." or some various other V for Vendetta quotes (love that movie)
how about "People should not be afraid of their carriers. Carriers should be afraid of their people?" hahaha

Hey baby, why don't you come over to MySpace, so you can Twitter my Yahoo until I Google all over your FaceBook?
Although, that might be a little too long

There is no certainty, only opportunity. - V
another V for vendetta quote, but i like this one and it speaks true about the phone/google/android experience

Now I become Death, the destroyer of worlds.
'Cause N1 is going to destroy the iPhone. Haha, maybe.
Edit: Oh, J. Robert Oppenheimer said that after the Trinity Test. He was reminded of "I am become Death, the shatterer of Worlds," from the Gita.

I got "If it ain't broke, mod it till it is."

If you were thinking anout getting N1.. DO IT!

I just switched from touch pro 2 and let me tell you... There is no comparison. I had TP2 for a year and almost everytime I had to do something fast, look something up or do somehing more complicated than calling - it would fail me. It led to a constant feeling of doubt and being unsure if it will just freeze when I need it the most.
N1 is freaking fast. Everything on it JUST WORKS. There is no guessing, like on TP2 - "omg I hope this launches.. I hope I don't have to soft reset.." - everything is integrated, every transition happens in a snap, every task you throw at it is handled immediatly and with style. It's a reliable life partner.
If you are undecided like I was a week ago about switching to N1, do it - you'll wish u've done it sooner.
Android FTW.

It looks almost black & blue already.

Its far better than the TP2 but it reboots by itself alot. I don't know why. I do understand you, coming form that phone also. But its not perfect yet.

My n1 never random reboots.....Ever since JIT got throw out the window, no reboots....I had almost 12 days uptime once....

What is JIT?
Scratch that. I found what it means. How do you get rid of it? I've read its built in.

THANK YOU, OP!
Yes, I was pretty undecided up until now. I have a SE X1 and really, I know what you're talking about when you mention "doubt". I just hate the thing and WM makes it a nightmare. When I got my X1 I was thinking of keeping the phone for a long time, I wasn't expecting a $900 phone to turn out to be complete crap both hardware wise (flimsy, crappy keyboard, crappy paint, etc.) and software wise (WM!!!). Hopefully, I can use the N1 for a longer time with the updates and all...
I guess I'll be getting it now for sure, the only thing left to decide is whether or not it's worth it to wait the extra time to have it engraved...ha!

Actually I ordered mine engraved and it shipped the same day. Suppose to be delivered today .
You may also want to check this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=654493

I also came from a TP2 and I don't miss it or windows mobile at all. The laggy feel to if it was on for a day with no soft reset. Glad to see I wasn't the only one who made the switch.

And to fill that final need.......
go and download dildroid just google it. Now your phone can handle anything, no really, I mean anything!

Dude, be VERY careful about the engraving.
Read the warranty policy - if you engrave it, it becomes a non-refundable phone that can only be sent in for repairs, if needed. Also, think if you'll want to sell it in a year or two.. nobody wants your "My name is John and I have a 12" tool" engraving.
Not that it's a bad service, just make sure you consider that.

Or something that would make the "wife" happy. I have to be careful what I engrave otherwise I'll get the cold treatment XD.
Oh well

I'm thinking that if I do want some "engraving" on it, I could get away with a transparent acid-sticker of a sort.. at least that I can remove and sell/return if need arises.
Although only death can separate me form my N1 at this point.

If Adobe would hurry and release the fully gpu accelerated flash player for this phone, I'd give it a 10 out of 10.
Seriously! The ipad / iphone guys are crying so hard about wanting html 5 everywhere because they're not allowed to have flash.. I worry that Adobe's missed the boat on this one.
Not a single developer leaking the gpu flash 10 player for android either..

With any luck, the spambots everywhere will pickup his address and spam the crap out that address (making it past his filter too) at least.

as much as a travesty this story is....
maybe you shouldn't let craigslist retards bother you so much that you post on another site about it

I like how he tried to use his email address to establish some form of credibility. Congrats dude, you were the SECOND person who tried to get unlockwireless from gmail, either that you you just suck at spelling. How about you put enough effort into registering your own domain first, then maaaaaybe some people will take you seriously.. but judging by the way you speak to others I find that highly unlikely.

Call me old fashioned, but.....
Why would you talk to a stranger like that?
You must have known after his second email that you weren't going to be selling it to him. Why not take the higher road, wish him a good day, and end it there?

Maybe we should all send him email asking him how much he's selling Vibrants....I bet over 300!

Scrizz, I really would of expected more from you..
Really think next time.. Ok, so this is what you do
1.) Tell him "Ok, $150 sounds good" (After he shuts up)
2.) Meet Him
3.) *POW* "Does that look like a $150 phone?!?!"
4.) Walk away and wait for more replies.
