Ha ha, that's class!!

That's funny! Thanks for posting.

It wouldn't have been so bad if he would have at least MENTIONED the XOOM!
The best part is when they focus out from the shot that clearly shows "MOTOROLA".
Priceless!

I didn't know the iPad 2 was running Honeycomb. Quite impressive. I might have to get one of those.

Good God! ROFL

I bet the video editor of that clip is anti-apple. He is sitting on his couch laughing his butt off and at the same time updating his job resume.

Woohoo! Go Evo! The only thing the iphone 4 has going for it is the handy end call button on the side.

Yeah, that made me doubt the polls a bit...
Voted. I can't believe they pitted these two from the start! This shoulda been the epic final! Hahaha
Doesn't seem like an apple site, evo's doing well so far, voted.
Dont look like they kept this going....wonder why? Could it be iphone got its ass kicked didn't wanna give it bad publicity are they afraid of apple suing them.....
its still going they just make a new page for each match instead of it being 1 page. look around you should see the rest in about 2 weeks evo vs gaalxy s should be going
the funny thing on most of the surveys they get around 800-1200 votes the evo they had around 6000. evo won with almost 90%

Top Stories Sprint's Kyocera Echo dual-screen Android phone announced, we go hands-on

Sprint's Kyocera Echo dual-screen Android phone announced, we go hands-on (update)
By Nilay Patel posted Feb 7th 2011 6:30PM
Hands-On
Sprint promised us an "industry first" at its event today, and it certainly delivered: check out the Kyocera Echo, the first dual-screen Android phone. That's right, dual-screen -- that's two 3.5-inch 480 x 800 displays which can be unfolded and used as a single 4.7-inch 960 x 800 surface. The screens are connected by a slick sliding liquid-metal hinge that Kyocera's filed several patents on -- the phone can be closed and used like a regular single-screen phone, unfolded all the way, or propped up into the faux-laptop configuration shown above. Under the hood there's a 1GHz second-gen Snapdragon running Android 2.2 -- we'll forgive the older software because Kyocera had to do extensive customization to add dual-screen support to seven core apps like the browser, email, and messaging. The seven optimized apps can be run on each screen individually so you can have the browser up top and email below, and several of them include useful full-dual-screen views as well. There's also a new dual-screen app manager, which is brought up by tapping the two screens simultaneously. Unfortunately, third party apps can't be run in any of the new modes and just fill the entire display for now -- Kyocera and Sprint say an SDK is coming shortly.

bah, 3.5 inch fail
Sounds pretty cool. Can't wait to see it.
Yea I hope not
from my phone duh
Even tho it doesn't really sound too appealing to me... I am really glad it isn't some form of a tablet. I feel like smartphones are taking a backseat to tablets and I can;t figure out why in the world they are so popular.
I thought Kyocera only made cheap prepaid phones?
Meh. If that's the big announcement I'm underwhelmed.

it's not a real 7 inch, theres gonna be some kind of bezel in the middle and the big gap, things aren't going to transfer across well, and it's kyocera, I haven't seen 1 good product of theirs and I had a kyocera in the past and it was fail
How about crapping on this product after we see it and learn about it's specs?
This is not the announcement... At least I don't think it is.

Does the Xoom.......

let me see through objects with the camera?
No but it can let you time travel. Unfortunately your safety is not guaranteed under the factory warranty.
Pervert...
it's not as good as the Ipad then!
But it can see around corners.

While the Xoom camera is not able to allow you to see through solid objects (and I'm pretty sure the iPad can't either) it can turn into an x-wing fighter. Not sure how useful that feature is to you though.
Mine transformed into a stove top and started cooking bacon... surprisingly I got a speeding ticket as well.

But don't you have to spend hours searching the supermarket for exactly the right type of bacon?
Because, I heard it only cooks low profile bacon, which has to have a precise ratio of protein, to fat, to sodium nitrate.

Well yeah, but it will cook your eggs any way you want so...
Yeesh, what a ridiculous thread. I mean, who cares if Motorola promised that the Xoom would appoint the next Pope and end entropy for all time, but those won't be coming until sometime in the coming months? The iPad 2 will never be able to do those thing!!!
Mine doesn't do anything special. It just apears to be a regular notebook so if i leave it somewhere, nobody ain't gonna steal it

You mean it doesn't even have the fingerprint recognition so that if someone DID try to steal it they are sliced to pieces by lasers? I always thought that was standard!!?!!
Xoom can lead a horse to water AND make it drink.
Xoom knows how to get to Sesame Street.
I call mine Xoom Norris. Any questions?
My Xoom travelled back in time to 2003 was seen by someone that knew a designer from apple and that word of mouth eventually spawned the iPhone then iPad!

LMAO!!! i'm actually surprised he did not drop the phone with all those jumps and rocking up/down + left/right + side 2 side
the sky diving one was not really unboxing, it was already unboxed, he just pulled it out of his sleeves
so that's disqualified IMO
yeh tasteless, cant believe samsung would want to do something different to advertise their phone. they should just do sleek adverts to music and copy apple...
When reading your comment a phrase that was relatively popular at some time came to mind. I do believe that it had something to do with untying one's knickers...
These vids were great! Original stuff, very nice.
Oh wow he puked all over the place. Hope he hid the phone :/
Good stuff though, I don't really understand why they did it... and I'd love an actual unboxing video

I suppose it's called chatter and peripheral marketing. If you can get one of your products into a viral video by people saying "watch this video of the eejit in the stunt plane" then it's a success
Just as we thought, more and more videos appearing closer to launch. This is the way Sammy has people hooked to their devices, although as tasteless as some may see, they do grab your attention.
Two more videos here

Epic seen on Celebrity Apprentice

Did anyone see the Samsung Epic on this weeks episode of Celebrity Apprentice?
Nope, but I saw a Samsung Epic, HTC Evo, and Kyocera Echo on Fringe =P
Yep.
Noticed it several times this season, but tonight it's really gotten a lot of camera time; they should have given it second billing in the credits.

Like said above, it's been on pretty much every episode of Celebrity Apprentice this season.
Oh my god I saw that... I was like what if they were browsing our forums... soo cool
I'm a casual viewer so I only noticed it today.
nope. but they used it to maked video calls home on survivor. i was surprised that show was still on.
Also seen the Epic and Evo Shift 4G on Law and Order Criminal Intent last Sunday. Epic is an under the radar phone.
I saw it a bunch this season already.. LOL..
I been pointing it out to my wife. hahahaha
I saw it!
Sent from my SGH-T959
Did they show the Real Birth Certificate Authenticator Scanner(tm) App?
Meatloaf should had used the Epic to throw it at Star Jones's head.
no, but I saw a guy in my dentists office with an epic.
Darren from the Hak5 netcast on Revision3 rocks an Epic.
I wonder if any of the ones spotted have Implaler's keyboard mod on them

They're phones given to them only to use on the show, they're guaranteed bone stock.
I was just joking around. I don't see how Samsung can't even get their keyboards to work of all things.
