I loved that show.

I grew up in a small town south of St Louis and so I will always be a small town gal. I now live in Raleigh which is to me is a big city and no I don't like it. We should have moved back to Wilmington instead of here.

However you got to go where the jobs are. Not many here in Raleigh as we have found out. We almost went back to St Louis so relieved we didn't.

If you had a choice between a LG Volt or Moto G which would you pick?

Depends on the price. This is from post 391 comparing the two:

The Moto G2 is similar to the LG Volt ($30~$40 during BF), but with newer OS (5.0), better resolution and more available storage. Pluses for the Volt include LTE, and a battery that's substantially larger and removable.

Shared Features

CPU ------> Snapdragon 400/ quad-core/ 1.2 GHz
RAM -----> 1.0 GB
other ----> mSD, FM radio

Moto G2 Advantage vs LG Volt

Carrier ------> unlocked/ any GSM ----- no contract/ Boost or Virgin
Android ---> Lollipop 5.0 ----- KitKat 4.4
Display ---> 5.0"/ 1280x720/ 294 ppi ----- 4.7"/ 960x540/ 234 ppi
ROM -----> 8 GB/ 5.5 GB avail ----- 8 GB/ 3.9 GB avail

LG Volt Advantage vs Moto G2

Price ----> $150 ----- $30~$40
LTE ------> no LTE ----- LTE
Battery --> 2,070 mAh/ non-removable ----- 3,000 mAh/ removable

No it's just a G not G2 and they are the same Price the LG Volt and Moto G. I went with the Moto G I read the screen was better on it. Now I am done shopping for the year other than socks.

Scratch that I cancel and went with the LG Volt. It has a SD Card Slot the other doesn't Amazon already charge me but was able to cancel the order now I just have to wait for the pending charge to fall off. Not a big deal didn't plan to do anymore shopping soon.

When my daughter was little we were talking about Christmas gifts. She said, Daddy can get you something nice like Diamonds and you can get him something like a nice pair of socks.

Display is better; but the battery is smaller and it doesn't have a mSD card slot.

It's not officially called a G2, but there are two versions of the Moto G: the 2013 and 2014 versions. The G2 refers to the 2014 version. I have the Moto X 2014... I think Motorola's official designation is X+1, but you'll see people refer to it as the Moto X2 and Moto X 2nd gen. The 2nd gen has a bigger screen and a few other design differences from the first gen Moto X. I can't speak directly to the Moto G, but I understand it is the Moto X's little brother (smaller screen and not all the features of the Moto X). I love my Moto X though.

Sounds like my wife and me... My wife would love to live in the country, but I'm in information technology and have to be where the jobs are... Which are usually bigger cities.

After I read it had no SD Card slot it was no longer an option. I cancel the order and Amazon charge me anyway after 10 minutes of ordering so now I am playing with Clueless Customer Service repts they hire during the season. The odd thing is the charges of both phones have been charged and show as posted instead of pending on my Card so if they didn't charge yet why are they posted transactions instead of pending.

I sent my card issuer a email. Tis the Season. *sigh*
