[clue-tech] Android?

[Brian Gibson]

Just like I expected.  The G1 from HTC does not have feature parity with the iPhone.  So my plan to buy and use the iPhone 3g now and to upgrade to a second or third generation Android phone, has already paid off.  The killer app for me is the browser (and map application) and from what I heard the G1 browser is slow.  I also must be in the minority, but I actually prefer a touchscreen over a keyboard.  However, I also wish there was copy and paste.  Here's hoping it will be included in a future update.  Other smartphones from Treo, Blackberry, and even the first iPhone did not provide as a good a value proposition as the iPhone 3g, but it's not the perfect phone for me.  What I'd really like is a touchscreen Cybershot phone from SonyEricsson that runs Android 2.0.

I'd be interested in hearing about it.  I've been drooling over an 
iphone since they were released, and if Google can do something equally 
as good that happens to be open, I'm all over it.  All of the rejected 
apps by Apple so far have been what's turned me off to the idea of 
owning one.  Even if you jailbreak it, it seems difficult to have to 
keep up with updates and stuff for a device that should be worry free in 
my opinion.  I'd rather just support something that's open in the first 
place...
