Even. Better. Phone.

 

They've been making  these bad boys since the 1890's (and yes, they are still in production).

Funny as I don't think rotary phones work on most phone systems these days?

 

 

 

They are used in National Historic Houses, etc.

 

Probably what happens is that somewhere inside is an A-to-D converter chip, and it actually runs on a digital line.

Hopefully they stipple they case

 

The one thing I REALLY don't like about my S4 is how slippery it is. I also missed having the kickstand from my old HTC. So I bought a neoprene kickstand case, two problems solved.

Those cases are a good idea for helping the phone endure abuse.

At first I thought it was great he was going to get a cutting edge phone.  Now, after remembering that he often posts from his phone,  I wonder if this is going to be like hooking up a nitrous kit to a Shelby Mustang.  Oy.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
