Go to the bottom of the their homepage. You'll see "VeriSign Trust" try to click cause it goes no where
Now go to Eastbay.com and do the same thing. I can't put my trust in company across the world and friend said he didn't trust it to so he held off the purchase.

edit: you won't even see it verisign trust cause they blocked it out lol

as far as from T-Mobile, the best cases for it we sell are the D3O cases

might pull the trigger on this one

Amazon product ASIN B005YEFM8M

Good looks on that link. Read the reviews and it seems really good. Just copped.

From what I'm reading, to root a TMO Samsung Galaxy S2, a Windows computer is needed. It can't be done on a Mac. Am I right?

yep, most of the rooting tools/software involves using a Windows Computer. It can be done in mac but that's only if the developer of rooting software makes a version for OS X.

No, they're isn't.  They're a HUGE waste of money.  If you're not gonna get a real extended battery, you're better off getting the cheap, chinese "slim extended" knock-offs for $5 that work just as good as, or sometimes even a little bit better than, OEMs.  They're almost the EXACT SAME thing as companies like seido, amzer, mugen, ect. charging $40-$50.  The ebay ones are GREAT value for price as they work about as well as OEMS, and you can buy a few and keep them handy since they're cheap and easily replaceable.

Where can i find these Chinese knockoffs you speak of?

Ebay. Not sure about the incredible but theyre always 5 for my evo.And woooooooooo at the nexus comin to sprint

Cant wait. My evo is going strong and will definitely hold me over til then.

not mad at all. I was fooling myself saying the android OS was better. Android still has a lot of phones I think are nice but the Galaxy wasn't it.

i was gonna cop a 4s but copped an S2 cause i needed something unlocked
but dont you find the iphone like a brick after holding an S2? lol

Don't get me wrong...the Galaxy S2 is a beast...phone did a lot and I liked what it did. But with the terrible battery life I had with it and the bugs and the 

marketplace. I'm just a iphone dude...not a fanboy by any means but you know how you go against something you normally used to and you end up right back with it. That's how it was with the Galaxy S2 and the 4.

Im starting to feel the exact same way about the iphone. Both are OS are good in different ways and I do like how the Android is an open source, but I think the iphone has Android beat on battery and reliability. The only thing that irks me is that I got so used to Swype and the iphone doesn't have that.

QFT
I had the G1 first but started jail breaking/customizing with my 2G iPhone first. I LOVE android and everything it has to offer...

But when I live in a non-4G area (sprint) and paying for two phones that can't even access the full benefits that they offer AND slow Data speeds, I made the jump to an iP4 and Verizon.

I'll be back I'm sure because I get bored easily so yeah lol
