Intrigued to see what'll happen with the exciting new Android developments.

Meaning 2.0? (eclair?) I'm actually kinda curious just to hear what the 'f', 'g', etc names will be.
- Andrew C
No, I mean the new speedy phones, and the car navigation functionality.

Are you using Android right now? Thinking about getting a Motorola Cliq.
- τorƍue
The early reviews I've read on the Droid say some bits are snappier but other aspects still feel a bit laggy. I'm going to speculate wildly that upping the CPU speed can only do so much and the system actually needs to be written to be more responsive, whether than means pre-caching more stuff or managing to display more placeholder data. (ex: the Market app - the "my downloads" list seems to be built dynamically on request rather than being pre-built.)
- Andrew C
As Android is designed from the ground up to be functional on feature phones, I'm pretty sure that's not the issue Andrew. Check out the amazing stuff they did with Dalvik so that code can be executed without being copied.
- Daniel Dulitz
The Droid has a lot more RAM (256MB, compared to the G1's 64MB), which makes a huge difference -- apps stay running, so switching between them is instant. People mostly complain about chunky framerates on a few animations, which have more to do with optimizing those particular renders than systemic slowness. I'm biased, but I think the Droid is a really nice phone.
- ⓞnor
I dunno, the Magic has 288 MB (vs the otherwise nearly identical MyTouch's 192 MB) and IMO the Magic is pretty laggy.
- Andrew C
I saw the Droid in action in person. It's really good.
- Piaw Na
I really like it as well (I've only been able to play with others' phones, so I haven't used it really deeply yet). My main complaint is that they appear to still be using software rendering for the home screen and app list, which makes those two parts feel a lot more sluggish than they should. I suspect that when they finally get around to opengl-ifying the entire UI it will be extremely slick.

Just saw a trailer for James Cameron's movie "Avatar". Animated characters are in the uncanny valley. Disturbing

I and everyone I know are bone tired. Why? Fatigue epidemic?
I felt tired the day before I was hit with full-on flu symptoms. I hope that is not happening to you.
- Gary Burd
SADD?
- Maxamad (Amazigh)
I hope not, Gary. I've been tired all week, so it is not just a one-day thing like yours was.
- niniane
The last two weeks I have been extremely tired. The week I had the flu I slept all the time and felt rested for the first time in many months. Recently I've been too excited to sleep when I'm tired. I guess that's self limiting in that fatigue kills excitement eventually.
- Daniel Dulitz
If you are fatigued for no good reason that you already know, I would tell your doctor and ask for a blood panel if you haven't had one recently. Besides giving you and your doctor all kinds of fun data to look at for a couple minutes, it's an easy way to find directions for further investigation if there's something unusual going on, like anemia.
