I don't see any advantages going from 8gb to 16gb (16gb isn't enough to fit all my stuff anyways)

I would recommend the 16gb model if it fits your budget. The extra gigs make a difference in this era of 1+ gig apps and 1080p video cameras, I have found.

If they offered a 64 gig model, I'd buy it. Obviously, a microSD slot would be ideal, but that would go against Google's current religious crusade to rid the world of local storage :)

even if it was on your phone, they have the power to delete anything (but yes a Google Nexus 4 is convenient)

Only wished it was waterproof...

It would be quite useful if both of you explained your +1 and -1. Is Bitmessage bad, or did you just dislike the +1?

You should be aware by now that comments are organized in a tree-like structure. But thanks.

"permanent"

distract the NSA and pay for it with your taxes

I don't think it's a good idea... but at least it should look exactly like my credit card.

yes, all bad practices... I think of this like when you buy something at the store at the advertised price and it comes up at a different price at the register (almost always higher)... this is wrong.

wow... next you will be able to trademark letters

Like iPhone and iPad? Didn't Apple try to enforce the "i" trademark. How did that end up?
