AYCE sushi is fine

just don't over eat... X.x

I'm used to Izakaya's in Japan lol

All you can drink for $20 a person! (weak drinks, but you can keep getting them hehe)

If it was $20 for all you can drink beer, count me in, but I don't know how I feel about mixed drinks. Mixed drinks and that type of food sound like a stomach ache waiting to happen lol.

I'm just very particular when it comes to sushi. I don't eat it too often so when I do, I like to go to very good places.

Or you should not eat any Sushi until the meet so then you really want some!

Bowser330 · 10-03-2011, 07:37 PM

Ive been there as well and for AYCE. We are talking about a run of the mill sushi place, so the quality is not going to be top notch.

Me and my friends kept ordering salmon sushi and they got sort of irritated we wanted so much. It was decent quality if i recall.

I attempted to go back for dinner one night and it was so busy and we were so hungry we ended up leaving.

cooler2442 · 10-03-2011, 07:43 PM

Yah can't expect amazing quality for 25$ for AYCE though. But seems to be worth the 25$.

persian54 · 10-03-2011, 09:07 PM

Where can I report a bad road?

Ouch!

WesleyC · 10-04-2011, 12:49 PM

Well, it looks like there is going to only be an iphone 4s, no 5!

What a bust...

cooler2442 · 10-04-2011, 12:55 PM

I know!

Guess I am not upgrading or will see since I have a third line which is my grandma's and always available for an upgrade so could use that one instead of my own lolol.

WesleyC · 10-04-2011, 12:58 PM

I'm still going to get it.

I had both the 3g and 3gs and I thought that the 3gs was a worthwhile upgrade. I skipped out on the 4 because I wasn't eligible for an upgrade and I wasn't going to pay $600 or however much it was at the time.

I think we can expect a better camera (hopefully a better camera in the front, too) and maybe more memory. I'm really hoping for a better battery, though.

Edit:

Here we go:

http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/04/i...d-with-a5-cpu/

A new CPU and GPU... not bad.

WesleyC · 10-04-2011, 01:06 PM

The new camera seems to be like a huge improvement.

wow 1080p and 8mp finally catching up with some of the droid phones. I love the iphone, no one can make anything quite as good as it. I really hate the android operating system.

WesleyC · 10-04-2011, 01:33 PM

Apple products may not be the most advanced (hardware), but the interface cannot be beat. Windows is trying so hard to make their UI more user friendly, but they can't compete.

WesleyC · 10-04-2011, 01:36 PM

Ok, all of the important info:

16gb - $199
32gb - $299
64gb - $399

Pre-orders start on the 7th and the phone comes out on the 14th.

I think I'm just going to get the 16gb. I don't need any more memory.

don't even go there... the screen clarity on droid phones still haven't caught up to the iphone. even with the "bigger screen & retina display this and that..." iphone still beat out the competition. in terms of data speed, voice quality, overall image quality, video capture, display and resolution. sooooo meh droid users.

i heard it was October 12th... Japan was set to release on the 14th.

WesleyC · 10-04-2011, 01:53 PM

I'm pretty sure it's the 14th.

BTW Jason, I am reading a book that I think you'd enjoy.

It's the memoirs of a young Filipino guy who comes to America in search of the "American Dream" (back in the 30's, I think) only to find out that America, at the time, wasn't the best place for a minority.
