It's driving me nuts. I usually can figure out these acronyms, but I'm stumped.

Well I Google'd OG, and found the Urban Dictionary definition, but knowing that some acronyms could have multiple meanings, I wasn't sure.
Thanks BigSmoke for clarifying!

Hahahahahaha now this is funny your screen name is old school (aka OG) HipKat and you did not know what OG meant... I would of lost money on the fact that you would of known that one....lol
OG = Original Gangster
OG = Original
OG = First Evo now that there is a 3D one
OG = The One that started it all....
Lol
TBH i had no clue if that was right not, But i know OG's as Original Gangsters and theres Froyo and GB Evo's. I just got high and put two and two together, ya know. It works.
Well you put OG before a phones name when it's succesor is released hence the evo 3d was released so now the Evo 4g is the OG Evo 4g same with the droid incredible Now that the droid incredible 2 is out its the og incredible.....same with droid 1..droid 2 is now out so its the og droid.....basically it means original lol

No, both suck! Shift is a cheap plastic piece of crap with only an 800 Mhz processor. It felt like I was holding the old Sidekick. My Mother-in-law has the EVO and playing with that versus my Epic, I prefer my keyboard to the on-screen one. The EVO screen was a little bigger but that was about it.
Evo who? Na I would buy another epic over the evo!

Why do you assume anyone would be jealous? Are you projecting your own feelings upon us? It's common, but something you should look into because it's not emotionally healthy to do that. It will make relationships very difficult until you truly take ownership of your projected feelings.
I'm jealous of neither. They simply exist as other options which appeal to people other than myself at various levels of desire.

it's not the fact that he asked the question, it's how he assumes we are automatically jealous of one of the phones. I am not jealous of either phones, so, I said no.
That being said, of the 2, I would rather have the regular evo... I guess.

I am not jealous of either, especially the shift. Each phone has its own ups and downs. And from my personal preference the Epic is by far the best. I played with them both and my biggest reasons are the display and speed. To me the Epic wins both hands down. The Evo screen is bigger but for me I find the Epic to be the perfect size. I also like gaming which is another hands down win for the Epic, imho. The point is, you will get tons of people that vote for each one. It all depends on the person. So if you really want an answer you need to use them side by side and make your own choice.

The only thing "lesser" about the Shift is the screen size. Aside from the name and Sense, they're two completely different phones and the Shift is the more powerful one.
The real question is, what does Sense 2.1 add that the Evo can't handle?

Sort it out, and grow up please.
My wife has the shift, she won't let me root it for her but hers has sense 1.0. I've checked everywhere and have not found an update for the shift anywhere, did they get a ported rom that brought sense 2.1 with it or am I missing something somewhere.
