For Christmas my wife got me the new Verizon Andriod phone.  Up until now I've always used the medieval clam shell kind of phones as I never thought I needed the bells and whistles of a smart phone.  But since I was finally going to break down and get an iPod (yes, nearly 10 years after the launch I've never owned one) she figured this would do the job and then some.



She was right.



This is a fun little phone.  I've got a few games for it, love the camera and video apps, and yes of course I finally have a real MP3 player.  And after looking at this bad ass cellphone I decided the most appropriate music to put on it first would be. . . the soundtrack to The World Ends With You.



Yep, I went there.  And now to make it my background as well.

And it's open source for developers too. Wise choice over the iPod.

Don't feel too bad, I made Mario Kart my GPS wallpaper and when I had a smart phone Phoenix Wright's ringtone was the one I used.

My phone is a DID number routed through Skype, so technically I wrote this site on my "phone".  Out-geek that Nyaa

You shouldn't be embarrassed about being geeky; you should be embarrassed for misspelling "embarrassed"

I own Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog DVD and Soundtrack.

If I had a cellphone (I don't because cellphones are evil), I'd have Dr. Horrible's theme song on it!

Now, if only there were a Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog videogame . . . *starts typing an email addressed to Joss Whedon*

Alright, I've outdone you all: I just changed my phone's ring to the Pachter Watch theme song.

My phone ring is Solid Snake's codec sound. Whenever I get a call, I crouch and press my ear to answer the phone.

@Yoda. Cool, as do I on all counts. But do you have the Buffy Musical soundtrack and the Dr Horrible 2010 calendar? I do! Grinning

I wouldn't mind a cell with an SD card slot for MP3s.

Yoda, you sir are a legend.  

Truth be told I'm not real embarassed that I set the phone's backgrounds and ring tones and such all for TWEWY and SMB.  I mean, hell I dress up as comic book characters for god's sake.  I think the only think I'm a little ashamed of is when I saw the phone I immediately thought "oooh World Ends With You. . . wonder if this camera can take pictures of the past."
