    Can someone make one of these for AT&T 3G? Loved the OS on the G1 but carrying around that brick got tiresome.

            Taking into consideration software stability, advanced multimedia and connectivity technology on board, today's (so called in a rather condescending way) 'feature phones' are arguably just as good as any smartphone OS driven mobile on the market. Just having one of the main smartphone OS's powering a device does not mean it is superior to a well designed and feature rich device. This is something that the manufacturers will perhaps realise as many consumers will prefer a feature device that is stable and has most technologies covered. This does not mean that this device is not a great addition to the market. It would appear its strongest challenger will be the Omnia HD.

                                  Seems that you want a cameraphone. You're better of just getting a camera.

                                    Rubbish.. really they should have done better....look at the Omnia hardware... thats what it should have... cheapskates:/

                                    Come on its a free OS..... so we should be getting min 8mp, 800 x 480 wvga AMOLED, 16-32gb + shsd, Snapdragon, AGPS, Wi-fi, etc, HD Video, Xenon flash.....now thats a smartphone....

                                      This preview doesn't tell much. Just explains the hardware again. The OS looks pretty undercooked, hope its sorted out for the final version.
