Google Maps is the better "GPS" app. I use it over the Maps since it has released... the native "Maps" suck ***, but has improved.

Yes, just use "Music"...

You gotta check out Verizon's 4g lte network! Blazing fast internet and the best network hands down.

question

I heard that theres software out there that will allow people to hack into your phone and access your contacts, messages, turn on your cam even send messages that look like they come from your phone. Does anyone know if this is true and if so how can ou stop it?

T-Mobile is getting the iPhone, AND LTE from their FB posts this morning.
"iPhone 5 has come to T-Mobile. Available 4/12", & "Our LTE! SHARE if you’re excited to see LTE in your city by end of year."

I have never been a bandwagon-jumper, and like to have a back-button [unlike about 1/2 of iPhone/iPad apps that I have TRIED to use], and efficiency... Netflix never failed to let me type on ANY Android I have used or owned.

Anyone and anything is vulnerable these days...

LOL, they're late. T-Mobile sucks, in general. I wouldn't say the iPhone relates to "bandwagoning"... can say the same for the Samsung Galaxy series if that's the case. I've been a long time iPhone user, and prefer to use iOS devices for a phone, and Android for tablets. But there are older people that do jump on the so-called 'bandwagon' for iOS devices, though.

iPhone is a lesser device, proprietary connector, for more money.

I usually can get the newest T-Mobile phone WITH a full QWERTY for ~$150, every time, without fail.

Don't get me wrong, I agree. I love Android devices.

It's personal preference, I guess... and I like my phones to be simpler, as I've grown to love the iOS phones for this reason. And I guess that's why it appeals to older folks, since it's easier to use.

The iPhone 5 was a let down, and I've been contemplating switching to a Galaxy S IV.

If you use a phone a LOT it is really a pain for multiple fields when you can't see the whole screen, QWERTY FTW, not to mention a K/B w/ssh blessing.

If you buy a good case your phone will survive many a dropping. Also, if your screen cracks you can replace the screen.
