I don't think that anybody has really succeeded at creating a very sexy phone that runs android. I don't know why, I would think that most companies would put a lot of their best people on it being that it's running one of the highest profile OSs possible for smartphones currently. I bought a G1 and I like it I just don't think it's very attractive and now an Australian company has made a new android phone that I also don't think is very attractive. I still see new windows mobile phones that I think look really good. I just think it's funny how hardware manufactures continue to pair ugly hardware with a very attractive OS and vice versa.

Why would HTC put a 64k screen on such a high profile device? For the record what is the iPhones, just wondering?
