When G1 contracts are up....

[ren857]

yeah im already thinking about goin apple. The iphone is just superior to android. I know android has great potential, but it just doesnt seem like the right os for me.

Been there, done that, bought the t-shirt, and sent that back! LOL

I had the iPhone (left my G1). I sold the iPhone and came back to Android. I missed multitaksing, widgets, and a physical keyboard. To me, the iPhone was just soo.....boring! Personalization isn't important to Apple and they have the OS so locked down, its ridiculous. I could care less about 100,000 apps when 98,900 of them are useless.

I had to jailbreak the phone just to get it to do basic things that android did, such as message notifications on the top bar, multitasking, and customization.

Now I'm back to Android and don't plan on leaving it.

Its been a few months now, and with all the recent goings-ons such as the N1 being released, and the Legend on its way, what are everyone's thoughts?

I'm stuck on contract until about this time a year from now, but I know a lot of you are going to be able to switch up come fall.

So, is your next phone clearly visible to you, on the horizon, or still being thought up somewhere?

Personally, I'm not totally blown away by any of the devices I've seen thus far. My main gripes with my G1 are speed and storage.

From what I've read, the snapper in the N1 and others is good, but doesn't seem to be blowing anyone away with the speed. What kind of processor speeds will we be looking at a year/ 7 months or so from now?

The storage situation is just odd to me. Why doesn't Google at least find a way to send apps to SD or SOMETHING?

Now if you showed me a thin, sexy device, with the G1's exact or similar qwerty keyboard, 3.5mm head phone jack, decent camera with a flash, wicked fast processor, 32GB hard drive, and maybe even Sense, for T-Mo, I would probably be able to make up my mind.

That previous paragraph led me to one other point....none of these new devices are very attractive. The N1 is just kinda blah (never seen one in person though, doesn't look bad, just not good either), the Legend is decent, but it looks similar to my G1, and the Xperia X10 isn't terrible either, but I don't know, something just looks cheap about the buttons on the bottom. None have captured the sex appeal of a iPhone IMO.

Maybe I'm just too picky.
