And no I'm not getting a blackberry (though I could), or an iPhone.

First of all, I can get a free blackberry curve from my sister who is getting a new one, but eh, don't like the keyboards.

I'm looking at the phones for Bell, and I have to say I'm somewhat impressed. They offer the blackberry and iPhone, but I have to be honest, the iPhone 4, and iPhone 3GS are well.. they're not very good and are more looks than anything.

I can get an iPhone 3GS for $0.00 but "To get the lowest 3-year price on this phone, choose any combination of voice, data plan and features with a minimum value of $50/month."

Which isn't that bad, but iPhone 3GS camera sucks as I plan on taking a lot of pictures.

I can get the iPhone 4 for $100.00 but I need to come up with the same plan. But the 5mp camera.. really? No. Unacceptable.

I'm leaning towards this phone: http://www.bell.ca/shopping/en_CA_BC.HTC-S...G/72554.details

Heard nothing but good things about it, and it's only $100. And with the better camera, and the power behind it (I really don't like iOS), it sounds like a great phone to me. Only $50.00 bucks a month, $60.00 if I go for the 1gb data. I'm actually excited to get my first phone. And I feel good that I'm not following in with the trends of Apple and Blackberry.

And don't say "The pics on the iPhone are great when viewed on it". I was actually at a party, compared the HTC and iPhone 4 which 2 friends had, side by side, and the HTC has the superior screen and camera.

I would go for the Htc because of the capabilities of android. If your the type who wants a huge appstore go for Iphone, thing is thought next year it will be obselete with Iphone 5, then Iphone 5g, then an Iphone 5gs Apple just loves for us to spend money on products that will be obsolete in 6 months with features that they should have added in the first place.

Android based phones however have so much capabilities from launchers, to rooting, so you arent limited.
With rooting you can probably keep your android update with features.

Samsung Galaxy phones are also good as well, but im sure the htc should be find.

Blackberrys arent that bad its just blackberry cant compete as well too ios appstore or android market.

the blackberry torch is a really nice phone too.

You won't regret getting that htc, it's a very good phone (used it for a bit, own a desire Z myself). The only slight downer is the long shutter time (it takes quite a while before the picture is taken, it needs to refocus often) but that's the only thing I can mention.

Eh, don't mind waiting a few more moments.

Shadow the Sensation is the best choice so far Its like the best phone at T mobile that u can have. I doubt that Bell has any Mytouch 4G slides that have a 8Mega Pixel Camera because that would really be the best choice for u then my Aunt has one and the picture are really cut and clean (jealous)

    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's been there for a long time, too. People who search for lost media don't look hard enough lmao.

    @SylverReZ, also the pico 2 demos used to be only for the newgrounds patrons but they are on internet archive too (https://archive.org/download/picos_school_2)

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Iirc the demos were removed from newgrounds in 2022
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, or well only the demo with mindchamber's style was on newgrounds

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Fun fact @SylverReZ: iirc one of the goals on the fnf Kickstarter stated that pico 2 would be finished but the Kickstarter didnt get enough money for that goal to be fullfiled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, FNF sucks, their community is toxic as hell.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @SylverReZ its a single player game
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, Yea but it has a shitton of mods with their own songs and stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, and quite a lot of people involved in those mods get cancelled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Newgrounds wasn't the birth of FNF; rather, it was games where you beat up celebrities and parodies.
