Any smart phone or tablet users out there?

The pet peeves thread got me curious. How many people here use a smart device? And if you do what kind is it? I'm a big fan of Android, so I've got a Samsung Galaxy SII and will be getting a Nexus 5 with my next upgrade in a couple months.

In the poll, if you have multiple, please give the "smartest" as your answer. For example, if you have an iPad and a Nook e-reader, answer iOS.

PS- part of my reason for this thread is because I'm considering making a spyroforum Android app and I want to know if it would even be worth it.

What sort of phone/tablet do you use?

Android (Kindle Fires count) 75%
iOS 25%
Windows Phone 0%
Blackberry 0%
Other mobile OS 0%
A non-smart e-reader (Nook, Kindle Paperwhite, etc.) 0%
I don't have a cell phone 0%

I usr a nexus 7 tablet. I've had it for about two years, now, I think. I'm using it to post this right now tongue. It's very useful.

I have a Pantech Burst (android). It's an okay phone, but this coming December I'm going to get a different phone since the battery drains whenever I shut it off.

Buy a £/$15 aftermarket battery from Anker and believe me, you will not regret it... Battery life is awesome and they do multiple model of phone batteries.

7 votes for Android OSs. For once I feel we are all ... sane. This is good.

I am surprised there aren't at least a couple iOS answers. Interesting.

Re: Any smart phone or tablet users out there?

Every electronic device has some sort of operating system, whether it be a simple small Linux OS or even something coded from scratch. Even your microwave has some sort of OS. I think ATM machines use a modified Linux system.

Re: Any smart phone or tablet users out there?

Actually, a lot of ATM's still use Windows XP which is the reason why people are being warned about them since XP is not getting support anymore.

I mostly use an Ipad if that counts. But about it.

Mr. John too.

Looks like there are plenty of Android votes. I think I will try to make a Spyroforum app. Don't quote me on that though

Ipad2 for me as well. Anyway a Spyrofourm app will bring more members no doubt.

Re: Any smart phone or tablet users out there?

My school has two computer labs full of brand new iMacs. Three, if you count the middle school's. They probably cost more than building the school itself.

Re: Any smart phone or tablet users out there?

That's a cool idea. Your hypothetical threads are great too. "pwned nub" seems like something I'd say definitely. I wonder how many people here know who Ayumi was? tongue
