Im not one of those that always has to have the latest and greatest, but I needed a new phone BAD I went with a new carrier and ended up getting a brand new HTC Evo with (get this) "Ice Cream Sandwich" as an operating system Well anyway as Ive been playing with this thing I found an app called aCar on the HTC hub (still not sure of a lot of this stuff LOL) but anyway this can track fuel mileage, costs, can be set up to remind you of service needed etc. So I had a service call in Yuma today, about 200 miles one way. I only wish I had thought to take my garmin along to get actual speed. But running an indicated 80 all the way there and then a lot of 85 and 90 coming back I averaged 38.417 mpg Every fill up you enter the data, I even found one pump cheated me by .03 cents overall (input price/gal and then input total gal. down to .000 and it tells you how much you paid for your gas) So far I really like it. Just thought I would share.

That is cool! I downloaded it tonight and will check it out. Thanks for the recommendation.

Thanks, just downloaded it.

Cool, I'll check it out. I never thought to see if a pump was cheating me out of money.

Thanks for the heads up I will have to check that out

I've one similar to that, probably just a different name lol. But it works great.... As long as you actually remember to input the info before you leave the pump, or forget it

Ice Cream Sandwich is the "code name" of Android v4.0, Just like Windows 95 was "Chicago" and OSX 10.7 is Lion.

Its just a name.

Are you sure that was the Droid you were looking for?

Why??? I do like to get the latest technology when I do upgrade, im just not one of those that have to upgrade whenever the latest and greatest comes out. I will prolly have this one for 4 or 5 years and it will be considered obsolete in about 2.5 years

talk about a LEAP forward in technology compared to my old Windows based smart phone LOL, I can talk to this thing and it types my text for me, I just wish I could name it... "Hey Baby, send a text to ...."

Just kidding with ya, Rod! Actually I just got the Samsung Galaxy S-2 driven by Android. It kicks ass!
