Yesterday when getting the kids dressed to go to a baby shower with my wife. My daughter wearing a Hello Kitty dress doesn't want to wear the gladiator sandles my wife picked out and goes for the white with pink striped supes. Unfortunately my wife ended up winning by force...something about little girls can't wear sneakers with dresses...haha.

samsung galaxy s4 got delivered this morning... well happy

[pokey27]

How is it Pukka?? Am due mine soon

[ez-1]

Just got two of them. Unboxing one right now.

Edit. Hmmm Now Samsung has done the ultimate Apple copy. They didn't change anything on a new model
It looks just like Galaxy S3 and is as thick/thin. Just probably a tad faster and therefore drains battery quicker. Not my bag but I can see why someone wants one.

I plumped for the experia Z, the water/dustproofing swayed it for me as I work.with water and dust all day. If I didn't I would have gone four the new HTC, that looks like the best phone available today. The Samsung is a nice phone but they've never grabbed my want list.
the Z is great but miss my OneX

Would like to get HTC One but they are not on sale yet in Finland. We have Xperia Z and ZL. Both have the same screen but latter is a bit smaller in overall size so I would have that. It's good to have those water&dust proof phones around as well.

I really like the s4. My last phone was the s1 so there's a lot of improvement from that.
As far as comparing it to the s3. I can't really say as I've never used one

[pugwashpz]

It is supposed to be a stunning phone Pukka, and the jump from 1-4 must be brilliant
they're all the same now, until something mind bending is developed they're all much of a muchness!
The Z does everything brilliantly, except make phone calls, that's where it falls down, oh the irony hehe

[pukkabruv]

yeah, but how often do you actually make a phone call on it?, lol

im well happy. the image quality is amazing. some of the features are cool buy just a gimmick tbh. but for what i need it for its perfect. (phone, texting, internet, camera, satnav)

guess i'll revive this one for the weekend

my youngest child graduated from high school yesterday. graduated with several honors.... silver cord for 250+ community service, gold cord for 3.5+ GPA all semesters of high school, red cord for being an Academic Mentor, and white robe (versus maroon school color) for academic achievements. makes a dad very proud. and i have to admit that i was teary eyed the entire evening/ceremony. i'm sure that's the just the first wave of teary eyed moments... since we have dorm room move-in in august and she'll be a five hour drive away.

and... to celebrate graduation.... we're heading to Maui, Hawaii for eight days!!! Wahoo!!!
