My wife and all her friends do the same thing. They even make a special bra now with a cell phone holder. I kid you not.

Oh holly crap I'm absolutely speechless. The worst part about the incident is that some of the others actually talked about hiring her. Gotta love state employment.

They do it for two reasons. Cause they can. And it's convenient.

Yeah, I guess the chipsets will still exist, but as automotive parts.

Why You'll Be Seeing TI's OMAP Chipset in More Cars and Fewer Smartphones

If it was a hot chick with a nice rack, I wouldn't complain!

Well, it may just be because I live in welfare central, but think UGLY chick with a NOT nice rack. And usually sweatier and more foul mouthed than the average redneck guy.

So yea, anyway, TI exits stage right from the smartphone/tablet market. This should concern you guys more than you know. Moto makes its own radios. If they have to go with a Qualcomm chipset (they sure as hell won't use Samsung's) then they'll be just another clone on the block. Hardware wise there'd be no reason to pick Moto now. You see where this ugly trend is going to take us right?

Does VZW have any interest in TI to have them pull the line? Would this be a way to strike back at Moogle?
