Topic: Android Phone Experiences?

Hey all.

My contract with my carrier is almost up, and I am definitely in the market for an android phone. I thought, since its pretty much linux (or at least the most open option right now), you guys might have some experience with these phones.

So if you'd like to share your experience with your phone, which one you have, and definitely any cool apps or articles, I think we could get a good discussion going cool

Also, if anyone just got a android phone, or if you just want a good primer, check out this guide:
http://www.completeguides.net/01_The_Co … roid_Guide
Its wiki-style, and written by a lifehacker editor. covers all the major topics and assumes your starting from scratch. also has some helpful sub tutorials for neat tricks and what not.

just call me...

Re: Android Phone Experiences?

I've been on android since magic. Now HTC desire. It is a very cool phone. I miss a voice dialer, and i am annoyed that I have to pull out the battery to change SD card (but mostly on princple - I never chagne my sd card). - other then that - it's pure koolness :-)
