I so want to wave my phone to pay for something...

 

[longshotthe1st]

All those new features sound great and everything, but how about letting us delete the stock apps that we don't want or at least make it so they don't restart 5min. later after you kill them. Also, how about making the touchscreen keyboard better. For example, if I type too fast, it deletes the previous letter which is a pain in the arse.

This means the Gingerbread-welding consumer can wave

I think welding your OS would be against the EULA, what with all the sparks and such.

I think you should blame that on your hardware, not your OS. I have the Evo, 2 of them actually, and I have never had such a problem and i can type just about as fast on the touch screen as i can with a "real" keyboard (on a phone)...which is pretty fast...

Agreed fully on the stock apps thing. I could care less to uninstall if they'd just stay "stopped".

Stock apps can be deleted if you root the phone, which has become extremely easy these days. However if you don't want to do that, then just pay the extra $300 for your phone and get it straight from the manufacturer. At least then it will only come with their stock apps and not AT&T's or Verizon's.

This means the Gingerbread-welding consumer can wave the smartphone against a terminal to purchase anything

How do you weld gingerbread? With icing sugar? Mmmm, nom nom nom.
