Are you a phan?

Do you drink a pack of red bull before recording this?

[lockergnome]

Red Bull drinks me.

Hey CP, for a windows/android user can you suggest the best cheap/free stuff

[lockergnome]

"The best" is relative. :)

[Ulti737fs]

Microsoft, because the software+hardware are both made by the same company

[Seathre]

Can't you get the Nexus 7 32GB with cellular capability?

[TabletGaminTechCrap]

I heard you have an iphone in your butt. Is that true?

[Darren Silk]

Galaxy Note or 2 are phablets. Well with the money and high HD screen. And not that big to use nor unwieldy. My Note 1 fits in my jean pocket just As easily As any the mobile. But it has all of the great tablet optimized play store apps. Meaninnice big apps with true mobile versatility.

[Stavros Vorkas]

this show used to be interesting. Over time it has become obviously biased and unfortunately its becoming more boring. Man you don't know everything you bring out strong opinions on almost everything. "phablet" galaxy note, galaxy note 2 in other words. These devices aren't a teenagers phone(not many can afford) samsung is successfully bringing in the stylus pen back to the game for business users and more artistic users(for their tabs). Its sad you have become another victim of Apple:/

[ShadowMaster126]

Phablet = Samsung Galaxy Note (1 and 2)

[FredEFuego]

OEM for me

[George Breinz]

Phablet is a tablet with a phone OS in it! Isn't it obvious? lol

[FlushReviews]

apple makes all their own hardware

[FlushReviews]

I would probably go OEM... I dont have experience with microsoft hardware so I wont be putting my money into it until it proves itself.... there ARE however OEM brands that I am a fan of- and they will get my continued business
