Nah, we get internet from cable. Though we are thinking of switching isp too so it might be dsl.

the non-smart phone can still be tracked fairly accurately by cell triangulation. It's when you've got four goons tailing you you really have to worry I suppose.

Smart people say it the way that doesn't introduce ambiguity with JPEG Interchange Format.

(Well, except for when what they actually say is PNG/JPEG/MPEG because they're using a fucking format that bloody well makes sense for the damned data it contains. :@)

Good news is the $50 phone makes a far better mp3 player than the nexus 7. No popping, skipping & crackling.  :-O~~~ (doesn't have near the battery life though).

Mediatek vs. tegra3. Whodathunk.

I think the size of the battery is quite possibly a major factor.

1300mAh vs 4325mAh

Yeah, replacement batteries are pretty cheap. In theory you could swap in a fresh one as needed. I'm wondering if there's such a thing as a phone battery charger -- the kind you insert the battery into, rather than plugging in the phone.

Yep, for many more popular phones with replaceable batteries there are, could be for yours.

It may even charge with a generic Lithium type charger if it was wired up right.

Yep, I got one with moveable pins so (in theory) you line them up and it charges any battery that the adjustable grip can hold.

I have no idea whether it works - have tried it with two batteries but in both instances I don't know whether the charger is crap, the battery buggered, or the phone fucked.
