Cool QWERTY phone What's a cool looking phone with a good qwerty keyboard. I mainly just text and call. I like the pantech laser or the sony ericsson vivaz pro. For some reason I don't like the rounder looking phones. I prefer the more rectangular sharp edges. Usually I just text so I was hoping for a good qwerty keyboard with decent call quality as well. I have AT&T btw if that matters. I can always just get unlocked phones. I don't care if its old or new. As long as its less than $100 and works good. EDIT: I was hoping for a phone with a slideout keyboard. I'll use a touch screen keyboard only if its really responsive.
snow in WASHINGTON Yay finally there's snow. Specifically speaking, the northwest part of Washington. Not Washington DC for those that thought otherwise. The west coast WA state. It's not too often we get snow and after 3-4 consecutive days of changing what day it was gonna snow, they finally got it right. They said it was supposed to stop this evening but it's not XD So for my fellow WA state people, what are you up to? I live up in Lynnwood and it's so nice to look outside. I'm studying for my test with a desk lamp and enjoying the snowfall. Fuzzy sweats :]
Stick with ATampT or switch to another Right now I'm with AT&T and about to upgrade to a data plan. However I'm considering switching to T-mobile for unlimited data and where I live (Washington state) they have good coverage. However I'd like to hear about actual customers experiences with them, primarily in regards to price, signal service, and customer service. I know I can stick with AT&T and rely on wifi. My monthly bill would still come out to be more expensive than T-mobiles cheapest unlimited data with 2GB high speed and 500 minutes. So what are your experiences with T-mobile? If you use Sprint or another cell phone provider that has unlimited data how is it? I had verizon before and surprisingly I got more dropped calls than
Stat survey project Hi everyone! Seeing how so many people on basilmarket play games aside from just MS, this would be a perfect place to collect data for my statistics project. I hope it's not asking much but I would just like it if you could answer at most a couple of simple questions. It will all be confidential of course and nothing too invasive. Thank you so much and if you could pass it to your friends so I don't have to create new threads and get repeats/take up space on forums that'd be great. :D Survey Questions: Q1. Are you male or female? Q2. On average, about how many HOURS do you spend playing video games (console and/or PC) a WEEK? Q3. How old are you? That's all the questions and thank you for your time. I really appreciate i
Crappy G/F's family Been a long long long long long time since i've made a personal post on Basilmarket. But need to vent somehow and with the Basil community the responses are so broad that they make my day haha. But ahem, onto the issue. My gf I've known for years and we've been dating for a while now but in the past 1-2 years her family has reared it's ugly head Exorcist style. To start with her mom is completely fake in many senses. She's nice to other adults but when it comes to her own children, there's beating and verbal abuse. Also her responsibilities are clearly lacking. Barely cooks and takes care of things at home. Instead, being divorced, she is either working or out late with her "boy toy"...ew. So since my gf is the
Selling my DS lite How much could I get for my DS Lite? I got the limited edition Palkia/Dialga DS lite from my friend who bought it when it first came out. It looks brand new and he replaced the battery with an official Nintendo battery when I bought it from him (6 months ago). No scratches, chips, broken hinges, etc. Just smudges from fingerprints. I don't have time to play the DS so I'm selling it but I don't know how much I can get for it. People on ebay seem to just want to buy it for $50. Also I heard they were discontinuing these. If it's against the Basil rules to put up "ads" like this please let me know and I'll close the thread. But i'm just asking for a real life P/C XD
For you phone junkies A couple questions here. 1. What smartphone should I get (AT&T)? 2. If an iPhone, 4s or 5? College budget btw. 3. Should I buy an unlocked phone and take it to t-mobile or sprint for unlimited data? I figure if I get a high end smartphone why not have unlimited data to use it versus relying on wifi? Also I hear people always recommending me to get an iPhone. If I must though, why not get the 4s now since it's cheaper and runs as well as many new high end smartphones?
Post wisdom teeth removal Well I just had all 4 wisdom teeth removed (1 already out of gums, 1 growing straight, 2 impacted/growing horizontally) and i don't feel as loopy right now. Just wondering for those that have had them taken out, what did you do after to recover? I've only had water and soup to eat and I'm taking the medications (but avoiding the ibuprofen considering all its sideaffects). I know I'm gonna be a little droopy again once i take the pills so just wanted a few quick responses. Please and thank you :] PS: Best wishes to everyone else getting theirs taken out soon. I was knocked out for an hour and didnt feel a thing until 3 hours later when I got home.
orchestral music ftw? [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCquXMrZYyU]Cygnus Garden[/url] Not sure if everyone has heard the new BGM for the battle with empress cygnus, but I have found it to be extremely relaxing and conducive to studying especially when I'm stressed out with exams. Does anyone have other orchestral music they listen to that's similar or helpful to them with studying?
New feature phone What's a good feature phone with a nice design like the iPhone 4? I currently have the Pantech laser and the battery drops like no tomorrow. I've been looking at the Samsung star 2 and the HTC Freestyle. It doesn't have to be new (in terms of release). Just long battery life, good for texting, and call quality. I like the touch screen design but if I have to use it for texting I'd prefer a capacitive. Would someone help me pick a new phone? I don't want to spend more than $150 because I've already spent a lot on christmas shopping for friends and family >_< Much thanks everyone. Hope you all had a fun, food coma filled weekend.
Discipline dam siblings How many of you have siblings? How many of you have BRATTY siblings? -raise hand- No idea what to do with him. He gets his way with so much crap that he does. He's 9 and when I was his age I was getting my own breakfast, snack after school, and taking care of my own hw. I just got Dynasty warriors 6 because I know he really likes the series and I'm trying to think of ways to teach him discipline that will stick with him even once I give the game to him. Guilt doesn't do crap btw. My parents have gotten soft on him so i'm basically the one trying to raise him right and yet they let him slide with so much BS that I never could've gotten away with without a stern yelling and beating. Help?
The color red Some reason I hate the color red. Stoplights, stop signs, the Target logo, movie titles with GIANT RED LETTERS, and my own car... But I'm most attracted by redheads.
Organizing games with cube shelf I recently wanted to get back to my gamer roots so I went and bought ~15 games for my 360 that I never got a chance to play (Dead space, Records of Agarest War, etc) and also hooked up my wii with a bunch of games I never opened (Metroid Other M, Skyward Sword, more). But now my room is a mess with game cases that are stacked on my coffee table. Is there a place I could buy cube shelves for a good price? Craigslist isn't cutting it. People are trying to sell used ones at brand new prices .___. I plan on using the cube shelf for my TV too so everything is nice and organized. Otherwise my OCD urges me to constantly restack the game cases neatly every day...help?
Quick survey pleaseeee After the previous thread died I feel like it did serve its purpose somewhat. I got a decent sample. But I would feel a bit more comfortable if I could get a few more female responses :D Guys are welcome as well! Survey Questions: Q1. Are you male or female? Q2. On average, about how many HOURS do you spend playing video games (console and/or PC) a WEEK? Q3. How old are you? Please, thank you, TUBBA BLUBBA MUSIC! PS. This is for my final Stat project of just collecting data and doing certain tests.
Expand on that music library Been listening to a lot of classical music lately and their remixes. Need more :D It can be the original or a remix (hip hop, rock, techno, acapella? lol) it's all fair game. Have at thee :D
nintendo DS yes or no Story time! Once upon a time I lent my older brother my brand new Nintendo DS that I dubbed sir phat. Because we were half brothers I only saw him once a week or less. Next time I saw him he tells me "I lost it". The end. I was 14 at the time and I paid for the DS with my own money that I worked and saved up for. It's been 6 years and he hasn't offered to replace it so I'm just going to buy my own again since Golden Sun DD is finally out. So I'm mainly looking at the DS Lite since it can play GBA games that I have plenty of. I refuse to buy refurbished or used from people. I just got one from eBay to find out the touch screen is broken. Should I get a generic new DS lite, or a new custom DS lite for a bit mor
