Pathetic - Reluctant reasons Why I'm giving the phone back

[Ash_786]

Love the Phone / OS - Hate the short comings.

Found the Operating system stable, fast and responsive. Integration of applications are lovely, but unfortunately I have to return the phone for the following reasons:-

1. Email Attachments

Is it 2008 ? I think it is and which mobile OS can you not save email attachments to the SD Card ? oh Android, you can on all the others. Hand in hand with saving goes composing a new email and attaching documents, it cant do that either.

2. Copy and Paste

So you can not copy and paste stuff off a website or a email that you have received, but you can copy from a txt box that you have already entered information in. USELESS.

3. No native file browser or document viewers

So there's no file browser and no way of viewing files stored locally. PATHETIC.

4. No Exchange or Outlook Synchronization

Is it still 2008 ? Ok, if you cant do Exchange at least do outlook. I'm not manually adding the 400 contacts from outlook. There is some third party tools to do this, but they are crap.

5. No profile support

Count how many phones don't have this feature. There's not many !

Anderoid is a lovely OS full of so much promise, but these nerds have forgot to put in the basics.

Lets see if v2.0 is going to be any better.

2.0. . . hardly. I bet all of the "shortcomings" you speak of will be resolved by the end of the year.

[Re@lly Dope!]

Hey, do what you got to do.

[Paging Dr B]

Thats sucks. I love my phone.

#3 is already solved.

#4 is being developed and expect to release on Q1 09.

Wow, looks like you did no research whatsoever before getting this phone, if any of these shortcomings surprised you then I would say, hey this is 2008 who buys a beta phone without knowing anything about it. Well at least if you return it someone with half a clue will be able to use it.

[JessicaSkie]

great points made, and whether or not apps will resolve the issues, i repect your point, but can live past those and keep mmy g1.

God, I didn't release the people here were that stupid.

NOW - I can order a phone, try it and if its not suitable, i can give it back. So some **** saying that I haven't got a clue is not appreciated.I don't need your permission.

Next, for the prat that says that there is a file viewers for locally stored documents - NO THERE ISN'T !!! If you've got a PDF or a WORD document stored on the SD card you can't view it on the phone.

Now if you ****s cant do your home work, do not even try to comment.

good points

but be patient wouldn't be a bad thing.

[Ash_786]

For anyone making valid points, sorry for being a bit harsh, can't tolerate stupidity after the day I've had.
