Polldaddy.. really? That poll site can easily exploited and rig votes. I won't say how though. Even though "MacGuy2006" is a mac guy, he speaks the truth in regards to the poll being meaningless.
Seems meaningless to me. Palm pre beat Nexus One which beat the iPhone 3GS. Xperia X10 beat the Desire. Wtf?

Count me in for a SGS vote. I love my phone. Since I got this thing, doing the typical showing it off when I get a chance and have converted 6 iPhone users to android.
Got my vote in for that beautiful Galaxy S.
Overall the voting is just meaningless. If anything, it should be a legitmate voting process with email confirmation with IP based on mobile operating systems. All these phones are Android, who cares if they beat another Android phone? The real competitor is iOS.

I've converted 3 people over to Galaxy S, one from Sprint's Palm Pre the other from Verizon's BlackBerry Storm. The other was already on T-Mobile so not much convincing there.

Point proven Guess I'll just say it... the exploit is that Polldaddy saves the data that you voted already in a cookie. So if you cleared your cookies then you can simply revote.
That's why I find this vote to be a joke if its primary voting system is Polldaddy.

so i decided to try out a samsung epic 4 days ago...BIG mistake.
good things about the epic:
very crisp screen and colors.
the hummingbird cpu blows the evo away.
cons...
no official froyo
buggy roms minus bonsai.
crappy slider for hardware keyboard.
cannot update profile or prl at all, a known issue!
clockwork sucks compared to amon recovery.
no apps2sd!
no custom kernels and not alot of development.
so to sum it up im back on an evo and ill NEVER buy a samsung again, EVER!
Welcome back...
Cool story, bro.
I had an epic and dumped it for an evo. I couldn't be happier!

The update profile/prl issue happened to my brother too.
When his screen randomly failed and he received a replacement it was resolved so it must be a phone issue.
Also, why would anyone develop for Samsung phones when Samsung doesn't even do it?

Otherwise, the Evo is pretty great.

without a doubt, shame what they have done to the galaxy line. to not even have froyo yet is a bunch of bull crap. i will say the epic has much better battery life compared to the evo.
in case you guys didn't know ms the dev of the sbc kernel just moved to a epic as well.

"The proccesors so much faster" they said
"The GPU is the best on the market" they said
What use is a GPU and a fast processor when the latest updates arrive 6 months later and broken in ways the originals weren't?
Meh, if you bought the evo you would be thinking I should have got the epic, I am so sick of not having a physical keyboard..
Life is full of shoulda woulda's, I probably will stick to a HTC or a Motorola smart phone next time for the exact reason you listed. But the devs here keep me happy with my epic, I have no buyers remorse only because of them.

Wow, way to beat a dead horse.....You say the Epic has taken too long to have its updates released? I haven't heard that complained about by.....everyone on the forum. Maybe next you'll enlighten us with a complaint about the bugs in EB13 perhaps? I don't think it's been complained about enough. Heck make it 2 posts for us!
Yeah because this phone is completely broken PoS compared to the Evo. It's UNUSABLE.

y r u all hating on the evo, lol. evo and epic r both perfectly great phones. OP, if u want an evo, sell ur epic b4 a galaxy s 2 comes out and buy an evo
we are not hating on the Evo.... but when someone comes along who is stupid enough to believe that they would have been better off having an Evo what do you expect us to do?
Evo= Outdated overhyped POS
don't get me wrong our phone is far from perfect also but our issues will be fixed soon enough 8)
OP the Evo is a good phone, but with all phones you're going to get tired of them eventually! No, the Epic's GPU doesn't suck, and yes it took awhile to get a update, but it takes a while with every phone maufactuer! And lastly Evo vs. Epic is old already we're not going to flame each other.

did everyone forget how long it took the evo to get a major update?let alone froyo?and you're complaining on how long the epic gets updates?lol...
OP needs an Iphone. I'm assuming he's not into rooting since Froyo has been on my Epic since last year. I'd hate this phone too if it weren't for all the awesome roms that have been developed for it.

Because we talk about the EVO here.
do we know for sure this is coming to sprint? if so id say a fall launch date. ill pick one up if it does in fact come.
Haven't heard anything about this coming to Sprint.

this is the general section. and the nexus & evo3d or any future phone that will dethrone the evo is worthy to talk about here. it's upgrade time for most of us and probably most of the devs including toast. nothing wrong with having a discussion.
Knowing Sprint, we will probably get a keyboard variation of that phone. Epic 2 or Epic __, maybe a new name entirely. EPIC 3D would be funny lol (1st Qwerty 3D phone )
It does seem impressive, Samsung seems to be cleaing up thier updating track record too. The only excuse I have of not buying it is the weaker XDA backing. Not to say there will be none but I prefer HTC + XDA.

The interesting part is the rumor that Eldar Murtazin spread this week in regards to the Apple-Samsung lawsuit, about a Samsung Galaxy S3 upgrade that is coming late fall, with 4.5" edge-to-edge Super AMOLED Plus display of high resolution, and no hardware keys. These same features Apple is said planning to introduce in the iPhone 6, which will appear many months after the SGS 3, which must have annoyed Cupertino to no end.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Essentially, Samsung developed features for the Galaxy S3 that Stevie boy wanted to release in the iPhone 6, so Apple is trying to slow/stop Samsung in court, so Apple can be the first one to release those features.
I'm sure Sprint will get a variant of this, its the successor to the Epic 4G. I just hope that this time it doesn't have a hardware keyboard. I think this phone would be the best choice for the next Nexus phone.
No more vibrant for me. I've moved to the HTC Sensation 4G. Love it by the way. I'll see read what's going on in here for my wife's vibrant but until she let's meet root it it's going to be informative only. Good luck my friends.

Why would anybody buy a Vibrant brand new right now? It's been out almost a year, that's like comparing a 2010 Explorer with a 2011, which is a totally different body style. Of course T-Mo will keep the Vibrant priced high, because they want to sell the Sensation and upgrade as many data plans as they can.
As far as the Vibrant being epic, it overclocks well, has a great screen, awesome form factor, and does it's job nicely. That's pretty epic to me. But if you don't like it, hey, you don't have to. Go grab your sensation and join their forum
