I hate Micro USB. >.<

Why? It is just as small as lightning, just as fast data transfer (same USB protocol), and alot more widespread, and therefore easier to find cables for.

Care to explain why it sucks, or just going to say it does?

The biggest thing is the three buttons at the bottom; not simple, not easy to use and not as innovative.

Ah, but I disagree. I personally don't like touchscreens as much, so having two more buttons is both not really a big deal and allows me to use devices like that more. Also, I don't really see how it's more 'innovative' or groundbreaking, having less buttons.

Remember, veggie, he's stevetheIPAD.  Not stevetheNOKIA or stevetheANDROID or stevetheSAMSUNGGALAXY.... wow that's a long name.

They get jammed, they fall out, and they don't slide in and out very cleanly. Also, they often break from light use, plus the ports get dust and things caught in them.

Also, the copper contacts are not in flush with the plug, but are inside it, sticking out, making them weak and break easily. Also, sometimes they break in a way that they only charge if you hold them tight.

We have some devices with MicroUSB that are easily 6 years old. Neither the cable nor the port in the device have broken or done any of that. Same for all the other mUSB devices we have.

Either you have had bad luck, or are lying.

Yea, and I'm jji7SKYLINE, not jji7TOYOTA or jji7FORD.

I just thought you likes skylines

Is a skyline even a vehicle?

Why... yes.

R32 My personal favourite.

R31 My dad used to have one of these... :3

R34 My second favourite B3

2012 GTR The new one they made quite recently to revive the legendary car.

Beats any porsche around the nurburgring, and is one of the fastest quarter mile cars in the world. Yet is costs a fraction of the price of most super cars.

The skyline is one of the most legendary japanese cars ever. In fact, my favourite (the r32) was nicknamed the godzilla in Australia and was banned from tracks because they beat the V8 supercars so easily.

I'm sorry, but I'm putting you under arrest with my grammar police power for using 'also' four sentences in a row, a crime in like 87 countries and 48 US states.

Just three sentences! Counting wrong is a /crime/

Three is still illegal in 59 countries and 23 states!

That's the same thing on 11 planets!

I do not live in a state/country/county where it's illegal to say also three times in consecutive sentences -.-

Imagine the conversations that would never happen if I didn't!!!

I like the original iPhone design the best though. Curved metal back 

I personally love the current design, I loved the 4S's sleek rounded rectangle design but now that it's evEn thinner, it's truly my favorite design yet.

Should I get the new I-Touch or wait for 6g? I heard some rumors that they were supposed to use a A5x chip instead of a A5 chip.

Apple products are best bought as soon as they are released. Whether or not you wait for the next regeneration is your choice, but even the current processor is blazing fast 

The A5 isn't anything to call home about (dual core ARM Cortex at 800Mhz - 1Ghz), though it is in the higher-end range of mobile SoCs. The A5X only offers slightly better graphic performance.

Still, both are definitely faster than the MSM7201 (single core ARM11 @ 528 Mhz) in my old Motorola Backflip, even when overclocked to 728Mhz.

I think a good strategy is to buy every other generation of something. While buying every generation is costly and there isn't much of a difference, buying every other generation allows you to maximize your money, enjoy huge differences and never miss a software version since Apple's iOS versions support at least a generation behind, if not two or three. However, this doesn't apply to everything; I'll buy every other generation of the iPad but probably not with Macs.
