I know, I have a set of 5 of them that I got for like $2. But it has to be hidden in my coin door thing because it's and ugly switch. I'm just fishing for a more aesthetic alternative.

But he could go to a starbucks with a different account and post up information, and not tie it to him in anyway.

Or you know.... whatever.

Agree with you 100% CU. Don't see Type R coming to US. Hope I am wrong.

Eh, might need a new phone sooner than I thought. Chronicles of my phone being lame continued. Couldn't get it to boot up after an "error" messaged appeared and tried to do a restart/ every combo possible. Let the battery drain and it shows it's charging now, so hopefully this time I'll just factory reset the POS and hope for the best.

Looking at the OnePlus One as a next option, just wish I could have waited for the OP Two to come out.

good luck. Phone trouble never fun. My HTC is finally dying, as in it shuts of randomly. But I have lots of medical apps I need so haven't upgraded to something yet.


Deciding sticking with android or make the dreaded jump to apple

Do you think it's worth it to be a doctor? I'm studying right now and was pretty set on PA school after graduation just because I don't think I could stand to be in school/residency another 6+ years after undergrad. Now I'm feeling like I want to go after Dentistry, even though it's only a little less time than med school. Convenient hours and still really good money.

HTC, never again. Which one do you have? They've failed me for the 2nd time and I'm not giving them a 3rd chance. Last phone I had just bricked on it's own and they wouldn't do a thing to accommodate us. We also had 2 of the same phones and BOTH bricked. One was still in the 1 year warranty and was replaced, the other just a few months after the 1 year warranty. Their hardware is pure crap and I'm not going to fall for the looks/UI anymore.

My buddy had the OnePlus One and made the jump to the 6. I just hate how you can't customize the iPhone and everyone has one. My last resort would be to cave in and get one, but I'm still willing to give other companies a chance. Samsung is pretty solid, we have an S2 still going strong, just not a fan of TouchWiz.

My friend has the M8, for what it's worth, his has also been fine. The M7 was just the test bunny, has all the problems.

Consider yourself lucky. I know most the M7's had the purple tint issue. Hell, there are so many issues just from a quick google.

Aside from the cost of the phone itself, iPhone (when jailbroken) is great. When jailed, I agree it's a limiting piece of crap.

In what sense are you asking about "worth"?

Self satisfaction in profession or $?

For me satisfaction, its worth it. $ wise, it isn't worth it. PA is doing much better, in shorter amount of time

Dentist is good, but quite competitive in a big city, plus its quite expensive vs med school.

I am not sure what HTC it is. I checked it doesn't stay on the outside. Its from T MObile. I Have had it since 2011. It does all its function well. Short battery life (doesn't bother me).

For me I am too old to be a gamer or use it for other things. I use email, phone, text, and TONS Of med apps. I need the apps to measure/medicine in the middle of the night, due to my patient population.

However, to me it reminds me of old computers, Over the years they would get slow, shut down, do funky things.

I am not in IT and have no clue about these things. Everyone around me, just says get an Iphone.

My brother in law is an exec at apple, so i get a great discount through him, but I have been anti apple products for ever. My office also gives me a $500/yearly tech allowance that I can use to buy a tech product that I use at work.

I am thinking of caving in, as all the med apps on the apple products that my associates use, has no issues.

99% of medical professionals have no business sense. Which is why they are often easy targets/victims of many industry (mortgage/finance etc).

If you aren't a techy guy then save yourself the confusion and frustration and just get an iPhone and a MacBook to go along with it.

I really hate apple, but it is way more simple and easy to use in some ways.

Been refusing all these years to go Apple.

Would be nice to integrate all of it together. Sigh, giving in now...

The macbook actually integrates in really well with the iPhone.... you can even take phone calls from your Mac and answer texts. I wish the Android had that feature..

WTF. The computer can answer phones? That would be great. Currently hospital pages to my 1984 pager, which sends me a text to the phone.


on another note my CPO came4 with all weather mats. However, I would like one of those OEM all weather type mats for the cargo area. Any idea what is best price to get them?
