Thank you very much my gee, at least I have an idea of the price. But, what can you say in view of the comment made below? As in can you say the Slot's price is a little on higher side compare to general market.

Buying there is better. They are a Samsung recognized dealer. I think the only official one in Lagos. You can be rest assured that their products are not fake Chinese imitations and they have good warranties on purchases.

I wonder where some folks get their info and post it on here. Do they get this from correct sources or just thoughts in their heads? Blackberry, faced with near eclipse by iphone and android ARE contemplating porting BBM to ios and android. Only snag seems how they are going to assign pins to these device for compatibility on BBM. As a step forward for Blackberry, they have ported the Dalvik Virtual Machine (the android os container) to Blackberry OS; meaning newer Blackberry devices like the Playbook could run android apps. Granted that android is open source, this could not have happened without Google's blessing and something in return from Blackberry. Which makes the porting of BBM a question of when rather than if.

You phucking idiot. I said
texazzpete:

It isn't possible to port BBM to android, not without's RIM's blessing.

Then you go on and start babbling about RIM contemplating porting BBM to Android. What does "Without RIM's Blessings" mean to you?

I see you are one of those who have nothing better to do than trolling and flaming on forums. I can bet my salary (as meager as it may be) that you do not have a paying job, hence you spend all day in cybercafes cadging browsing tickets so you could do what you know best: trolling and flaming. If I had the time I could have expounded more on your kind, but unlike your kind I got a job and I cannot afford to waste one more second on a troll today. Anyway, happy trolling. wink

Why would you want to call Win 8 an atrocity? Why would you want to start a flame war? You sincerely think Win 8 is crap at this stage of the OS? Well, I do like you to point me to your flame war thread and I would prove how wrong you are.

Nice of you to tell us how you manage to get on the internet. Instead of trying to insult your betters, why not admit your limited grasp of the English language led you to make a silly mistake?

Abeg put the thread up. Please remember two things

1. The version of Win 8 shown off is at pre-Beta level. Making sweeping assumptions on the final product is just plain silly. As far as performance is concerned, at least Win 8 has been shown to run capably on hardware that can run Win 7 (Even down to ancient Atom CPUs)

2. Abeg the '$' sign in MS is just plain old. What is this, 2005? At a point, even rabid fanboys grow up to realize that for companies like MS, Apple, HP etc have the sole aim of making as much money as possible for their shareholders.

sp what happened to ur fone n which model was it?
Re: Android, Anyone? by N101: 6:26pm On Sep 16, 2011
lynxnoon:

sp what happened to your fone n which model was it?

I have the original Desire.  I travelled, switched my phone on at the destination, everything was fine.  My brother "borrowed" my phone as he's never seen or used an Android phone (has a Windows Phone).  He didn't do much with it apart from play around with the apps, try to beat my high score in Angry Birds and charging it via usb.

Next morning woke up, phone was fine, decided to restart it and walked away leaving it to do its thing.  When I got back, the phone was stuck in boot mode and stayed there. The volume up and down buttons wouldn't work, taking the battery out and putting it back in didn't work. I basically tried everything.

I contacted HTC and arranged for a collection on my return. Collected Monday afternoon, returned Wednesday morning in working order.  Someone elsewhere suggested there may have been a problem with the volume button, fortunately it was still under warranty.  Didn't find out from HTC what the problem was, just glad it's back working.

Spent a whole day online trying to find a cure, even posted something on a forum but got no response. Was a close shave but I felt so lost without it - lost without a phone! cheesy Went to xda to look up similar problems, but they all worked on the premise the volume button functions.

Now I don't even put my hand anywhere near the volume button. Wonder who in Naija who could fix it for me if I ever developed a problem (God forbid!) Was checking out the HTC site to see if they had any resellers in Nigeria, the Africa page was "not found". Not very helpful.
