Watched "The pirates of Silicon Valley". Hates Steve jobs even more now. Good movie though, apart from the climax. Seeing ballmer acting ape sh*t crazy is just awesome.
Can't say more but

4.2.2 for the Nexus 4 is out now too - http://www.androidcentral.com/android-422-ota-nexus-4-go-and-here-s-your-download-link
I got the OTA update for my Nexus 7. Still waiting for the N4 OTA. I'll give it a day or two otherwise I'll just flash it myself. Links for the N4 should be available by now I think.
Check the link in the post I've quoted above.

I got the screen protectors from gadgetshieldz and it's totally not like a regular screenguard. They want you to dip it in soap water and then apply it on your phone and leave it off for 24 hours. Yea, no way I'm putting soapy liquid on my phone :\. Looking for another, more traditional screenguard. Any ideas?
Hey, did you get the 4.2.2 update? I thought the download links were out for the Galaxy Nexus (mine's sitting unused right now in the draw back at home) but not for the Nexus 4. I was just sitting around hitting the check for updates button and I realized that I don't see anything online anywhere for the N4, only for yakju and takju.

Charles Xavier..... LOLOLOL

This movie was filmed for the most part at the place I just finished my Masters at - Georgia Tech in Atlanta.

Actually I got a bunch of similar ones (from Xtremeguard I think) cos they were available at a heavy discount
(usual story). Didn't wanna do any of that soapy stuff so I ended up putting a cheap set of thin plastic ones on it. Never looked back after that.Woah! That looks sick!
Thank you

Just watched The Dark Knight Returns Part 2. Really good animated flick. Liked it much more than Part 1. Also this made me hate Superman even more

^^ I've set up my phone like that too. Poetic Borderline bumper case along with front and back screen protectors from GadgetShieldz. I don't think I have the heart to cover the beautiful back with a full case. :/
Well this is how mine looks now. Back's covered up, the silver Nexus logo still shows through. Official bumper.

That Vertu phone is hilarious. 10,000$ and not even JB

Still wondering which case to get for my phone. I'll have to import it because obviously nothing is available here. Choices seem to come down to Diztronic or Rearth and for bumpers, Poetic or official. Any input you can provide?
Did you get 4.2.2 OTA yet? There's already a link up to download and flash it manually but I want to see how long it takes before my devices get the updates OTA.
Then Diztronic seems to be the best of the ones you've mentioned if you're looking for a complete back covering solution. The Rearth slim is the next one but it doesn't cover the top and bottom edge of the phone. What I did was put the official bumper on it and a thicker skin on the back (from dbrand - they ship worldwide for cheap and the feel is excellent) that would atleast protect the glass from scratches and light bumps and go very well with the official bumper (atleast the carbon and titanium finishes do).
I didn't get it over the air yet. I'll probably wait a while since it doesn't seem to be a major update. Should be within a day or two. Last one happened pretty quick.

Got my Nexus in the morning! m/

Yep. Looks really cool but you'd have to be a little soft in the head to spend over 4000 bucks on a charger. Still might look into getting one if LG ever decides to release the N4 and accessories here (lol)
Tell me about it... I really have to control myself from spending too much. You saw how a few pages ago I spent 30 dollars on that bumper and then decked it out further with a brushed aluminium finish back. This after going through 2 other cases until now. If I keep buying accessories for the phone, at this rate with the low price of the device I'll end up spending more on accessories than the device itself.
Still.. I'll wait for reviews to show up before putting down hard earned money on that charger.

As much as the Nexus nut in me wants to buy this sweet piece of hardware, the fact that it's 70 bucks a pop after taxes and shipping makes sure I'd much rather just plug the cable in rather than insist on putting the phone on something that has a cable plugged in anyway

$70.. F U GOOG :|

Zero Cuts in the movie's length

But we had some audio mutes, when some quran lines were quoted.
Didn't really alter the experience in any way as per people who had already watched the full version.
Cuts only in TN :|
I'm guessing the audio right before the 'amazing scene' you mentioned was muted? If yes, that kinda takes away from the awesomeness of it all.

,how many scenes were cut?... 7 right ?

I watched it without anything cut

I didn't like Dasavatharam either... but I really really liked Vishwaroopam.
@Shantz:
And it's wrong to say he's gone down. If anyone has 'gone down' it's Rajini in that earlier in his character he used to focus on playing actual roles... now it's all about 'style' and pleasing the masses
. Kamal has always focused on doing something different. In 'recent' times (atleast post 2000) he's done some very interesting movies and roles and done them well. Vettaiyaadu Villaiyaadu, Anbe Sivam, Hey Ram were nothing short of amazing (do watch those movies before you comment about how he's not acting well). So too how he played his role in Vasool Raja (Munnabhai's Tamil adaptation) and Unnai Pol Oruvan (Wednesday's tamil version). If anyone needs to be recognized for his non-formulaic acting it's him.Have watched this earlier, fantastic speech indeed!
And for those who know tamil, watch this, bet no actor can mock at politicians and actors like him in publicOMG LOL

So i heard that in vishwawhaterver, our hero uses principles of physics at a level that puts even the indy "fridge" jones to the shame.
suddenly agent vinod's pungi dance doesnt seem half bad :|
Uh yeah. A microwave is designed to keep EM waves inside... similarly it could keep EM waves from outside from coming within too.

Vishwaroopam first day 7am show experience!

Finally an awesome Indian spy thriller.
Fantastic 1st half, second half could have been screen played a bit more faster, nonetheless it was still good.
Major gripe for me was the story being very inconclusive, now got to desperately wait until Vishwaroopam II.
Fans like me will love it, and the one scene in the first half alone is enough,
am still searching for the jaw I dropped.
Will watch again in Auro3D

yes, that scene.... just WOW. The range of emotions he shows... what acting.. man.

Also, the slomo stuff

Dredd is decent..Its nothing great , but not bad either..
Its just mindless action , more like a video game..
since you already watched raid, you are going to be utterly bored with dredd,
Yeah it's just a futuristic version of Raid : Redemption but with Dredd in it. Some of it's nice, but overall it's a one-time-watch kinda movie.
Nothing beats Stallone's "I am ... THE LAW!"

Guys, don't say anything to Spin about his beloved SLI. He's not upgrading his ancient wreck of a machine because he can't go SLI on day one.
SLI = Spin Loves nvIdia
SLI

This thread is even funnier than those gifs LOLOLOL
-
Yup. Followed by him lamenting on how Nvidia isn't getting any respect in the mobile space what with no OEM buying into Tegra 4.
Ended up telling him that they need mobile SLI.
So yeah. I got a call. From Spin. In Baroda. He was crying about me dissing SLI. On an internet forum.
This is life people.
