When you're playing all that free music your got online and out of battery life see you will need a conductive charger. Do they make a conductive back that looks like the London Guard? What about a tall hat with the Samsung Galaxy S III embedded it with conductive solar charging?

I think all new smartphones should come with similar chargers. We could save a lot on electricity bills, even if we can't save anything on data bills.

At some point when the lawsuits are all over. We will find that everybody stole from everybody else while making it so confusing nobody can figure out which one is better. Apple is going to lose control of the market soon.

It all boils down to who has the most money. Apple has a lot more money than Samsung in the United States now anyhow. Samsung is going to have to give away free content to everyone if they want them to go over to the other side. What's a bunch of free music, if you then control the marketplace? Samsung was able to get their equipment into the Olympics it would be a real see if they got president BlackBerry Obama to use the Samsung galaxy smartphone. That would be the ultimate product placement

I went to the dentist office yesterday and one of the patients had a Samsung Galaxy S III it looked huge compared to my iPhone. Since watching the Olympics, I can see how much you can do with a Samsung Galaxy S III. I'm worried that I will be able to figure out how to operate it because I don't have a smart phone yet. I can get a better deal on it than an iPhone initially but the data runs about the same.

Somewhere in the Samsung Galaxy Note group are prettier and more Feminine than the iPhone. The iPhone is more square. If I were in Taiwan I know I would buy the Olympic version just to get the case with the London guard on it. I'm trying to think of what would be comparable in the United States, maybe some kind of barbecue or or car.

The most feminine looking smart phone was the Palm Pre which died very quickly, after Android stole all the synchronization thunder.

I know you can win a trip to the Olympic Games from Samsung. I would like to win cash and a limited edition Samsung Galaxy S III that I could resell on eBay.
