Yeah definitely agree on the weird to drive on, it was much more of a slippery drift than I am used too and I really had to watch my counter steer cause the tail came back around much faster.

Well so far I got a speeding tiket! 2days ago i got pulled over doing 96 in a 60 zone. walbridge road by the collage for the locals. Its a stupid 60 zone area.. nothing but open road and trees, but Im normally good at watching the speed traps in the area. This time I was off in thought. Cop dropped it down to 75 in a 60 which was only a 50 dollar fine. Much better hen the 250dollar fine it should have been.
Ohwell... You cant have a bee hive and not get stung every once in a while. Either way your insurance is gonna take a hit, whether it be 5km/h or 50km/h over the limit.

Well I got screwed a few years ago, and am just recovering from it. No chances being taken here. I will fight every single speeding ticket, even ones that are legitimate.
I had two 5km/h over and one 15km/h over in the span of 3 years and I got slammed.

2, that's two times, I got booked for 5km/h, and yes really I was driving at the speed limit according to my goddamn speedo, but both times I was "clocked" at 5km/h over. The 15km/h over was actually reduced, so I couldn't say sh!t there.

Wow that's brutal!! Usually 15 over is for the speeders that are reduced, 5 over is rediculous!

Well, lets not get hasty. First off, apple has a massive following which will take some time to break down. Also, blackberry has the newest generation smart phone as they have recently rebuilt from the ground up which is something that all other smart phone builders are yet to do. Everyone is taking what they have and making little bandaid fixes here and there to make them more appealing to the consumers, but then again everyone will shell out money for something with little to no improvements and BUGGY!!! So we'll see what happens. Apple has done a super shitty job at upgrading their phone. Sure, lets make it faster, bigger, and keep the same battery. Bravo you idiots. But no one cares... They'll fork over 800 bones for a new phone with little to no significant improvements. I've been rocking my iphone 4 for 3 years now, and it only bogs down when I forget to close the background applications (10+)

Yea, I've heard not nice things about the 5. First off, the ios 6 on there is already battery draining, but coupled with the larger screen, FORGET IT! Guys at work have to charge their phone 1/2 through the day with light usage. Noticed this as well. Couple guys at my work, exact same thing.
