Database Info

[APP] BoozeHound

Planning on going out tonight and want to know where you can get your drink on for cheap? Or maybe you're getting off work after a long day and you want to know what businesses on your way home are currently offering the best specials.
If you're anything like me, you want to know where you can get your favorite drinks for the least amount of money. And now there is finally an application to help you do that! BoozeHound!
BoozeHound is a Location-Aware social networking tool for finding alcohol specials in your city. Users post specials they find at businesses around the city which appear in your Booze Stream, from newest to oldest. Other users can verify or disclaim specials entered, to help inform others when users have entered inaccurate or falsified data.
So whether you want to see all recent specials users have entered, or browse specials for businesses closest to your current location (and even alphabetically), BoozeHound has you covered!
Don't see the business you're looking for in our database? Easy, add it yourself! Launch Google Maps or Google Places, find the business location you'd like to add, and 'Share' it with BoozeHound. BoozeHound then does a reverse-geocode on the address to capture Latitude and Longitude so we can accurate calculate its distance from your current location when viewing our Businesses in the future.
Don't see your City on the Login page? Easy, add a Business in your City to BoozeHound and your City will be added as well!
BoozeHound is in a very early, primitive state, and that's why we need YOU to help us grow our user-base and data. Users are assigned points based upon the # of businesses they add and # of times people either Verify or Disclaim specials they've posted. When BoozeHound reaches its goal, our Power Users will be the first to receive benefits, be it discounts at your favorite bar, or even FREE BOOZE!
Join now and be one of our first Power Users! Also, the more people you convince to join in your city, the more data and thus better tool this will be for everyone! What are you waiting for? Download it from the market now!!!

Great idea.
Installed and it works well.

Thanks!!! I'm really excited because I think this has major potential to be huge once people start using it. I'm most curious about what people think about the process to share Businesses with my database. Personally I think it's pretty clever

Really? No takers? I thought XDA would be full of people excited to get their booze on for cheap

You Snooze You Lose The Booze
I am pleased to announce BoozeHound v1.1 was just released on the market last night. You can now subscribe to businesses to receive instant notifications via Google's C2DM (FroYo) or Email (Eclair)!!
Other improvements include the ability to manually update your Last Know Location via Network or GPS to improve location-awareness and a partial re-design of the UI.
People have been doing a pretty good job of adding Businesses (which also populates our cities) but so far we're still lacking on Booze Specials. The more people use this app the more beneficial it will be for everyone. So what are you waiting for?

No better way to get some Detroit love than start adding Businesses and Specials there yourself. And tell all your friends!!
You will definitely be set once you get back to TX (Austin best of all). I'm currently in talks with several large Liquor store chains and a few bars downtown to start promoting my application and setting up partner accounts with them. Our posters should be done and printed by the end of this week and then they'll start going up all around town. BoozeHound is about to take off so get in now while the going is good!!
Our power users will definitely be the first to start reaping the rewards of our success

Where to buy in Orlando?

I'm going to travel to orlando next week and i'm planning to buy a Viewsonic GTAb, where can i buy it in a store at Orlando or Miami.
Sorry about my poor english, i'm from Brazil.

Orlando
Office Depot on Orange Ave has them in stock

Thank you Icyn, but do you know anywhere else?
Just in case they don't have anymore.

Hi,
It might be better if you just browse to officedepot.com, search for Viewsonic, then do check availability, after you get to Florida. That will show you which stores have it in stock.
SOUTHSIDE MARKETPLACE In Stock 1.89 miles 2847 S ORANGE AVENUE ORLANDO, FL 32806 Phone# (407) 423-9907
INTERNATIONAL DR & KIRKMAN RD In Stock 7.14 miles 6855 S KIRKMAN RD ORLANDO, FL 32819 Phone# (407) 370-2624
Others had 'limited availability'

The Sears at the Seminole Town Center Mall in Sanford has two more as of two days ago. They should still be there.
Address to the mall: 200 Towne Center Circle, Sanford, FL
Good luck!

Sears at the Fashion Square Mall has them (Colonial Blvd. and Maguire)

Can someone clarify the 149$ vs $249

So I know this phone should be $249.99. However its only $149.99 in select markets. What is the reasoning behind this? I figured it was because I didn't live in an LTE area and I wouldn't for quite awhile; however two reps I spoke with said it was to push the phone to sell in "soon to be launched LTE hotspots". Is this true? I'm I'm.central Cali.

I'm in Modesto and the sales rep looked like I was speaking French when I asked about a LTE rollout. Idiots. Best Buy told me summer 2012. We'll see.

I don't know about other areas but in Greater LA area, it was initially $249 online but after few days, the price dropped. As for the ATT store, the rep told me that it was $149 from start.

The phone costs $149 now in all AT&T stores and if ordered directly by AT&T

They reduced the price of their 2 current LTE phones (Vivid, Skyrocket) by $100 in LTE coverage areas. I do not live in an LTE area but my rep honored the discount, so I was able to get the Skyrocket for $149. I think she just fudged the zip code so the discount would show on the computer. I live about 3 hours away from San Antonio which has LTE coverage. Now I need an excuse to visit so I can test out LTE.

My area has them for $149 right now.
Do you guys think the price will drop any further in the near future?
Or is it likely to go back UP to the $250 it was originally priced at on release date?

Online & all the official stores and authorized retailers in my area that I called in my area had them for $249. I ended up purchasing mine for $149 using my Premier account.

If you are new to ATT or adding a line, you can get it for 50% off at 125 dollars. Although the discount says its online only, the ATT CS guy was awesome for me and did everything right there. Ended up paying 160 dollars for the phone and 3 accessories.

False. I live in an LTE area (Boston) and it is $249.99 for me online.

I ordered mine online. In my area, they wanted $249 for it. So, I started over and gave the website a zip code of 10532 (a market where it was being sold for $149). The order went through at that price point.
The phone hasn't shipped yet, but I don't foresee an issue.

All over Dallas and its suburbs the phone its selling for 249.99. I purchased mine @ Fry's for 149.99.

I also live in the Bay Area. When I went to check the AT&T web site for the phone, the price was $149 ($249 and a $100 rebate). The stores had exactly the same price.

i just got taken for $249 + tax
so i'm calling the AT&T to see if they can credit me the difference

FALSE!! Well sort of. The sale looks to be over now. That's why it shows to $249 even in LTE coverage areas now. Sorry guys.

One of my previous managers I used to work for told me the $149.99 was always going to be a "launch" price. Couldn't confirm timeframe and this was just for select Corp locations.

I guess you guys got the shaft from the get go then. Strange they would not discount the phone in such a large city. All 3 LTE areas in Texas had the discount, for a few days anyway.

It never showed 149 in Atlanta and we have had lte since day 1
It does show 149 when using the 10532 zip listed above so the sale is not over

As of Sunday morning 11-20-2011, Houston Texas (LTE area) prices shows $149 when I log in to my upgrade options, and same price when not signed in just looking at pricing with new activation.
I'm trying really hard NOT to buy this phone. Keep telling myself to save the money, the prices might come down, and give Samsung/ATT time to work out any bugs this new device may have.
But I'm getting weak .... cant resist .... much ... longer..

It's in store only. Sorry forgot to mention that. Updated OP with picture!

apparently this is currently only on the east coast as well. most users on the west coast have seen $50 at the most. myself including

I'm checking in the Nexus player section today because I picked up one this morning at a Frisco, TX Target for $24.98.
My original tip to the sale was from here: http://slickdeals.net/f/8168644-nexus-player-on-clearance-at-target-for-24-98-ymmv. There is plenty of discussion there about regional distribution and timing of the markdowns.
I also checked local inventory levels via brickseek.com, which seemed reasonably accurate (though it showed a $50 price, despite the lower in-store price).

The slickdeals thread has the details, but apparently most Targets do markdowns in electronics throughout the day on Mondays. So it's not surprising that you saw it for $50 yesterday.

Interesting, I went to one and called another here in El Dorado County (east of Sac). And both showed $50 still.
I actually used to work for Target. The one that I worked at were always done with markdowns by 10am, perhaps they are on a different schedule...

Yeah when I first heard I was skeptical because the website show'd $99, but then in the store it show'd $49, and then the clearance down to $25. I don't care how it got to $25, i'm just glad I got one!

Grabbed the final one in Brentwood MO. Did an inventory check at the store. Nothing available in the St Louis area.

in north texas as well. I went to Target in Allen off 75. It still showed $50 when the guy scanned it, but i told him my "friend bought one clearance at another target" and showed him the pic from slickdeals. He matched it for me....but only for 1. That was on Sunday afternoon. I need to go back and see if they finally marked the rest down. These would be good xmas gifts for my nerdy friends haha....my family wouldnt know what to do with these things.

Today is the markdown day. All Target store will have this for $25

Doesn't seem they are killing Android TV. I think it's possible they are releasing a new Nexus Player, Google usually doesn't announce hardware in advance. But who knows, we'll see in a few weeks.

SM-955F UK (Clove Technologies)

Does anyone have any idea when the UK shipments will be going out? Has anyone preordered from Clove? I am US based and patiently waiting my shiny new S8+. It seems the US based orders have already started rolling out so hopefully we see some movement for the UK devices next week.

delivery on all pre orders from the main shippers (samsung, carphone warehouse, very, argos) will be 20th april. clove are a reputable site so they should ship around that date assuming they will get stock 8 days early like the main suppliers. also add international shipping and import tax if held.

if you pre ordered from one of those suppliers you get the phone delivered to you 8 days early on 20th april. carphone give away a free sasmung wireless speaker as well which is kool.

Is it typical to get hit with import tax?
Just checked the most it would be is 1$ per value and item. So shouldn't really be an issue.

I'll get mine wednesday the 19th from Amazon (I live close to Turin Italy). With the best price option I'll pay 872€

I ordered from Clove too but they say ships on 04/28.

Just a heads up, if you ordered from Clover Tech they are stating they don't expect any stock until the 28th. Kinda sucks as I pre-ordered from them being in the US and all I didnt have much of a choice for the Eyxnos variant anyways. Other suppliers in UK are already shipping but it looks like Clover is not a supplier such as Very, Samsung themselves and carriers.

And you could cancel the order, if you wanna go the Ebay way!

Sorry to rub it in, but I received my Clove Monday. They shipped Friday. DHL got it across the pond over the weekend. But I did order it the date it was announced back in March and they charged my CC immediately. Unlocked bootloader, unlocked SIM. Works great on ATT. Loaded TWRP and one of the new custom ROMs.
