HTC Sence 4
However here are the downsides or things that were rather annoying one thing is it seems that multitasking is disabled but a quick fix is to root the phone and install something that can manage the mines and change to something less aggressive like 22 24 30. Now I have a HTC One V as my primary device and noticed that sometimes the phone can stutter a tad bit when running games. With Sence using less RAM it does feel a bit slower than my 600MHZ processor optimus V but it does seem HTC is trying to improve but it does not feel like a giant step but please allow us to turn off Sence in future versions and maybe on the lower end One V maybe used Qualcomms older dual core chip as a single core can feel choppy when using multiple applications.
Now onto the advantages of running the new Sence 4 I have to say that on the One V Sence has been "watered" down for the slower hardware and smaller screen. Now that HTC has dramatically reduced Sence's RAM usage the phone feels fast out the box as opposed to having a custom ROM. One thing that I have noticed is that the stock animations are gone completely which makes the phone feels smoother and much more consistent with the performance.

Don't you miss it
After getting a new phone and getting an exception that says I can't root the phone so that takes away me from installing a custom ROM. Well now I miss the days of running the latest CyanogenMod nightly with full hardware acceleration and fast at the stock clock. I do still like my phone but for others who share the same disability and did have a rooted phone but it is gone. However the limitations of not rooting your phone can get in annoying like sometimes you may want to wipe battery status or wipe dalvik cache but you can't do that without root.
It all started when I got my phone HTC One V and it is a great phone however use launcher pro or another launcher because the stock Sence launcher is a RAM hog. I love the phone dearly however I just wonder what can it do over clocked or rooted on a custom ROM. With a great 1GHZ processor it is a certain upgrade and came very close to beating the Evo 3D's 1.2GHZ dual core chip. However I was told specifically not to root the phone so it does eliminate what can be done.
I strongly recommend people to try phone hacking however I'm not responsible for anything that you may wish to do with anything. Don't you miss the days of AOKP ROMs with so many features of CyanogenMod for speed if don't be afraid try it odds are you will like it.

Sprint oversold network
Now lets talk about data the service that most people use on their smart phone's. In the past at my house I used to get about 150k/bs download and 80k/bs on upload which Sprint says those are peak speeds but those should be speeds seen everywhere as CDMA networks like Sprint and Verizon have to compete against GSM networks which use HSPA for 3G which can bring peak speeds of nearly 8 megabits. Now into Sprint's Wimax which Sprint discontinued selling and gave to prepaid networks and after testing the OverDrive Pro mobile hotspot the speeds were very similar to the speeds on Verizon's 3G network which was piss poor because Verizon has a max of 3.1 mega bits.
Finally now on to Voice and SMS which after testing the call quality was great. With SMS it is a different story because we all need to send something quick and SMS have failed to send and Sprint has done nothing to correct this issue if you are having this issue ask to be compensated and ask for a Sprint Airave if you have a corded connection.

Talk_About Adreno 205 vs PowerVR SGX 540
With Qualcomm launching new GPUs it has been "souped" to compete with the monster Galaxy S GPU but after testing benchmarks say something different like my Galaxy S device got 1890 on Quadrant but my One V got 2679 which surprised me because in real world gaming the One V disappointed me because with running Skype in the background the One V struggled with Need for speed Hot Pursuit while Galaxy S flew by. Then with running Smart Bench 2010 Galaxy S mopped the floor with the One V.
A few things to remember that Galaxy S and the One V do have different CPUs so cycling and usage can be different. After running a 3D benchmark from Antutu the One V averaged 7.2 FPS and the Galaxy S averaged 2.2 FPS. But with Adreno 205 it has double the Maximum texture size of Galaxy S. The phone are fast however one is faster than the other in benchmarks but if I were to make a decision I'd perfer Galaxy S.

MegaDetails
This is my response on the article about MegaUploads mega take down. The article can be found in Maximum Pc magazine the April 2011 issue.
What I will like to say is that when the FBI shutdown MegaUpload the website I toke it serious. Not because I felt like something has been stolen from me. But in the FBI's defence Mega Upload was charged with 5 crimes which all of them happen to be federal. The makers of MegaUpload aren't from the United States however that didn't seem to be an issue because thats when New Zealand comes into arrest the makers and throw them into jail.
For some reason lots of people agree that this seemed to be an act of greed but this does seem to deal with the SOPA/PIPA act. From what I believe S.O.P.A stands for Stop Online Piracy Act and P.I.P.A stands for Protect Internet Piracy Act.
About the entire thing all I can really can say is feeling of authority all of a sudden gives people greed and to take what is not their's. The Internet is not mine nor is it just you're s its everyone's no one gets a large chunk its all ours and taking it would be stealing.
Now however the maker of MegaUpload has thought of making plans of making another file sharing website called "Mega". But here comes the catch on Kim's bail this could violate his bail maybe even bring new charges to Kim Dotcom. However Kim says he has no plans to relaunch a similar service until everything settles down with his case. During the raid of Kim's house he was beaten by the New Zealand anti terror police. With the domain being seized it can not be sold as it was seized by the FBI.
