I'm using the Nexus 4 on ST, and it's awesome. Make sure you buy an AT&T sim card, if you're like me and live in an area where Tmobile service sucks.
For anyone interested in selling one to him, any unlocked SIM card will work on ST. Pretty much any AT&T or T-mobile phone with a SIM can be rooted and unlocked in like 10 minutes. You have plenty of options.
I have a brand new in the box iPhone 5, AT&T. Will that work on ST? I think you gotta get an unlock code for it, but ya, the AT&T iP5 will work on ST. Ok. It is not a cheap phone though! Ebay $600... Here less. |

Can't use preorder money like that, its fraud. In the same way I can't sell you a computer delivered in 6 weeks and gamble it all in the mean time.
Well if or if not their pre-orders were done according to the law is one thing, but no, you can not say HOW a company uses pre-order money that specifically. If the units cost $400 to make and they took in $1200 they certainly could keep some in BTC. |

It is quite easy to imagine where miners assemble transactions into blocks and collectively build a shared block chain but the protocol doesn't require proof-of-work. I've already described in detail a system that does not require proof of work at all for network security in my signature. Instead of it being based on a weak PKI infrastructure, those who wish to create blocks put a large chunk of money on the line as collateral that they will not create more than one block or do anything else nefarious or they will lose their deposit. In return, the tx fees are split among those who perform the network security. It is also based around confirming transactions every 10 seconds rather than minutes. Does not sound secure to me. For a known cost you can cause a failure of trust. If the deposit is very high then you turn mining into a thing with a high barrier of entry for the already rich only. If the deposit is low then you can cause trust issues for a low price. |

Digitally everything needs to be divided into portions and grouped. Grouping a single item with itself would be a waste of space, increase (vastly) traffic between nodes and more importantly the network would never settle. Right now it 'settles' every 10 minutes. You would never be able to get everyone to get transactions in the same order and therefore there would be no single accurate record of transactions. Blocking is necessary.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TbkxRbTEgoEI found this video. Let me just say, Amir Takki is a great developer but he can't go talking about and I probably paraphrasing "...it is bringing money laundering from big people to the common people..". This is exactly what type of labels we don't want on bitcoins. Everyone needs to stay away from the "launder" word. Also he talked about how "3-d printing guns" is the way to solve issues with fraud in the bitcoin world. He is a complete rebel, and should not be affiliated with the community. The host even at one point basically had to treat him like a kid and tell him to wait his turn. He is using words that would scare people away. Amir is a great developer, he knows how bitcoin is the future and his passion is amazing. Just the way he presents himself is a little far from what we need in the community to be our voice. I think he did fine. He is not the button down representation of bitcoin. He is the wake up call representation of bitcoin. Bitcoin has all kinds of users from lawyers and bankers to prostitutes and drug dealers. Also, honest people use it too*.
*(sorry, I did not mean to imply that prostitutes and drug dealers are not honest) |

The only real benefit of BTC is that it is fast and anonymous and I really think BTC should capitalize on that niche. Later more on that.
TL:DR Forget consumer goods and replacing currencies, the future of Bitcoin is in microtransactions on the internet.
Bitcoin has no set future. I sell consumer goods (shirts, batteries, stickers) and I am doing fine. I pay less for processing then paypal and what I do pay goes back to the community not paypal. I like that. |

I bid 26 BTC for any one roll.

How would the sale work? I send BTC to escrow and then wait for box. Once box comes to my place - if it ever comes - you get BTC from escrow?
I think you misunderstand the concept of a BFL Pre-order sale. The unit will make a pretty large sum of BTC if it is shipped in April or May. At current difficulty and price it will do make $3300 a week. If difficulty doubles it is still $7000 a month. It may come in late April, May or never. It could make in several months of rising difficulty as much as $20,000 or as little as nothing if it does not deliver. The seller is most probably attempting to offload that risk or attempting to get the funds sooner If you do an escrow he is no longer offloading that risk and he is not getting his funds sooner. Unless you pay great portion of the expected return that is a pretty bad deal for them. Now by paying for it early and taking the risk, you should get a reward of lower price. What price is the question!! $5000? $10000? But unless a seller things they will never deliver, selling below the list price ($2500? $3000) is just plain silly. It appears sales for the regular SC have been made in the $9000 range for early orders. |

Evidently they cant handle payouts either.
I have been waiting since the end of January for
two - thousand dollar checks!
Multiple e-mails to them and just run around responses.
For the last two weeks no response!
no more soup for them.
What - now I have to go to small claims court?
What a joy.
Uggg. To there defense I had a withdrawal go through right away (this week) through Dwolla and it was over $500. |

I've been reading this thread as well - it's awesome - kind of like CSI.
I would actually be interested in buying these for $400 or so but concerned there's no guarantee they work properly, aren't stolen, etc.
If they exist, some would consider them stolen. They were paid for with other peoples money and never delivered. And of course will he send them to you? He failed to send them to his other 'customers'. |

$574 for a 5870? I have 77 of them for sale if anyone wants them for 4btc each. I have found dozens of blocks with them over the last 17 months.
This is not a normal 5870, this is one of the few bitcoin artifacts you can hold in your hand. Arguably, when news of the halving hit the media, is when btc started to rise to its current fame and price. This card belongs in the bitcoin museum, that hopefully will exist one day. Id like to add here that if Satoshi contacts me requesting the card, I will donate it to him for free. Agreed. Hard to know the value of something like this as we are in new territory. If Bitcoin fizzles it is not gonna be worth much. If Bitcoin continues to grow then it will be a piece of history. 4 BTC is a pretty good price so far! |

Yes. Most people got about half back.

That sale has to be insanity, desperation, or a scam. I would like to buy one and I'm willing to pay up to 2 BTC for a coin, but $1075 is crazy. Now two coins active bidding at $1125 and $1425. |
