HTC Droid Eris – Widgets & Apps – Part 5

I was just listening to Howard in my car on a station called crystal one. the stations aren’t very dependable and sometimes will stop after a half hour, but most if not all the time i am able to find a station, whether “history of howard” or recent shows. they were talking about conan and Leno so the one i was just listening to had to be this week.

thanks dude, i feel the same. and while the iPhone can’t touch some of these phones right now, don’t think Apple won’t go down without a fight. I think the hand held tablets are the future and the rumor is they are gonna unveil something kickass soon.
I might post another Eris video tomorrow, it should be good. have fun w/the phone peace

no one is sure about tethering right now. I am going to use it when it’s only needed, and not abuse it, until i have a better understanding of verizons policy.
battery life is fine, i have gotten use to it by now. i have to charge it every night, but it usually lasts the day and i use it quite a bit. once you get the hang of the phone, you find ways to conserve battery and get the most out of it. since it does so much, u will use it alot, keep that in mind.

I thought you said unlimited is really unlimited in your previous post?
Can you please explain what you mean. Is tethering legal or not. Whether you are using bandwidth on your laptop or on the phone, data is data, how will they know the difference.
Sorry, I am just confused.

however, if you watch alot of Youtube, you will go over 5GB no problem. So basically the way I see it, if you use a ridiculous amount they might try to figure out if you are tethering or not then make that decision.
Supposedly you can get another $30 plan on top of the one you have for tethering, but that’s also capped at 5GB. Makes no sense, besided, Verizon says they don’t offer tethering when in fact you can because I’ve done it.

I’d be careful to be honest. I tested to see if it worked, and it was downloading like 1 meg/second, and I wasn’t even clicking anything. so I shut it off.
there is alot of confusion about the $30 data plan vs. the $45. the “unlimited $30 plan” isn’t “unlimited” it’s only for 5GB. “Anyone using more than 5GB per line in a given month is presumed to be using the service in a manner prohibited above, and we reserve the right to immediately terminate the service of any such person without notice”

I heard Jan 20th or somewhere in that neighborhood.
