I’ve long hated Samsung phones, but this one…

- Nice looking, slim, appears to have decent touch screen
- Android, so no issues w/ clumsy or annoying Samsung OS
- Big battery
- 3.5 mm headphone jack (Come on HTC, get a clue!)
- WiFi, GPS, and AWS 3G
- lots of storage and the option of LOTS of storage

I don’t know. With 3G supposedly appearing in my neighborhood in Q4 I might have to get over this Sammy phobia and sign on for one of these…

Why is everyone hating on the G1. Sure it has a few shortcomings, but so does every phone. I think it looks good, and it’s good for business, depending on what business you’re into. Just saying, phones don’t need to be purrrty if they function well. But I guess different strokes for diff folks.

Why is everyone going the way of Touch Screen only? I can’t stand them! Yes they look pretty, but functionally, it’s terrible! Doesn’t anyone else like to be able to type/text message without having to stare at their phone? I know it’s not the best to drive annd text, but with the regular phones that have a keyboard or at least number pad (like the standard Nokia phones) you can text quickly and without guessing, since you can ‘feel’ the keys. I am looking at these new Nokias- N85, N97, they are beautiful, but it doesn’t look like they are on the 1700 frequency needed to be on T-Mobile’s 3G. T-Mobile is a great company and I hope that they start making it easier for other phones to get on their 3G NETWORK… They are very nice though in that they give you support for ‘non-tmobile devices,’ but you can’t really put an ‘outside’ phone on the 3G, you are stuck with EDGE/GPRS.

TMO Rep,you’re right that update charge is killing most of us who’s making it from dime to dime and not having a family data plan it’s not goods either.Would save me money that’s for sure.

This phone rocks! Android, plus great storage, plus camera flash, plus standard headphone jack, 3G, Wi-fi! This does everything I want it to. In the future, I already have this! Way to Go!

Any of the newer cells coming out that uses data you’ll have a choice beteen the $24.99 and the $34.99 and for the buisness ppls is $54.99.Anyone who plans on upgrading from their old sdk to the new sdklx09 can stay and keep the old plan unless you decide to change it.
I think the bad part is that they don’t have a family data plan yet which is gonna cost families more cause each cell will need one.They should charge $4-54.99 for family data plans.
