Love it so far. I have barely put it down since I came home with it. I inhaled my dinner just so I could get back to tinkering with it. The sound is really amazing for a phone.

Just wait until you start taking pictures. You no longer have to run around turning lights on just to get a decent non fuzzy pic...

The LCD is phenominal for being an LCD. I can barely tell the difference in black level compared to my old SAMOLED....

Oh yea, I did mess with the camera a bit. Just checking out the focus and different effects they have. It also seemed like it dealt with a shaky hand very well.

I believe it has built in optical image stabilization.

I picked up a new lawn mower today. It's a Husqvarna self propelled. A co-workers parents are a dealer so I got it for just over cost, at $500 after taxes. It took about 40 minutes to mow my ginormous back yard which is less then half what I was expecting based on using a normal push mower. So far so good right. That's what I thought. With about two passes to go before I finished the back yard, the self propelled stopped working. FUCKING BOO! The damn thing didn't even last an hour, let alone the 3 years or whatever it's warrantied for.

Well, it looks like if you register you don't have to check any of the boxes. I think I'll just do it that way and leave it blank.

Although, if anyone knows what it costs that would be nice to know.

Went to my local track for some fun time... my first vacation for a LONG time. Forgotten how to properly do full braking heel-&-toe. Gotta get back on game!

Must learn to wear safety gloves more often. On the other hand, I think all the dirt and grime made the cut coagulate quicker!
