So pleased tmobile rejected my request for the g1 on credit grounds - computer says no - as a few days later Vodafone offered me the g2 as an upgrade. My main concern, prior to testing both phones, was text entry. The g1 was hard going for my elephantitis fingers wheras the g2, which I tested instore and am using to type this message, is an absolute breeze. As far as the ease of setting up and finding my way around all the different functions, there have been no problems to date - and this from someone who is a dodo with technology. Having just said that I realize that I have no idea how to start a new paragraph - the cursor scrolls to the right, seemingly into eternity. Never mind, will find a way with more practise. Excellent site by the way - heavily influenced my decision to get this phone in the first place.
Just worked that pesky pargraph business out - the word 'moron' doesn't even begin to cover it. Be blessed, I will post more when deeper into the experience.

I thought the phone was quite boring to use. no games.. or good apps. only online stuff like the google maps. Gmail etc. Touch screen had a very good response to it. very fast loading. other than that. Boring as. still. sad to say it in the same league as the iphone..
Im gonna stick with my Nokia 5800. sorry htc

This phone is nice for people without needs for some privacy, just like Gmail.
I don't want any company to read my private SMS, especially the way Google "reads" what words you write in Gmails. They actually don't read it manually, but they search which words you use most commonly, and then those words amazingly appear in Google Ads for your IP adress. I hope Android isn't the same thing, but I strongly fear it is.

I got a chance to use this phone yesterday at one of Vodafone's store, Oxford circus. I must say that this phone gives a tough competition to iPhone. It's 'Touch screen' is brilliant, looks are awesome. If there is a something which it is lacking behind in, is no applications. But regarding applications there is something very important I would like to say, that iPhone's free applications are just okay, means they give you very limited functionality and in paid applications you get full functionality but in Android you get everything and yet free.
I would like to know if anyone knows any other site for android applications, apart from androidmarket.
Thnaks.

i have had the magic on voda uk for a month. wipes the floor with the iphone. quicker, less restrictive than the iphone, battery better camera clearer.
the list goes on..............
iphones are for people wanting to follow trends.
android phones are for people who want to set trends.

in the end its about the software on this phone when comparing it to the iphone, iphones software is more restrictive. Also this phone is aimed at the same market as the iphone users. I don't actually see iphone users dropping there iphones and rushing over to tmobile over this device but i do see people doing that when android has many more devices in about a year and by then att will have there own line of android devices.

devil may cry, 23 Jun 2009which is the different betwen HTC magic with T-Mobile G1 ??... moreThe G1 has a physical keyboard and thus is much larger. The Magic also has a bigger battery as well as more shared memory. Unless you NEED a physical keyboard, the Magic is a better choice IMO.

I am thinking of pruchasing the HTC Magic.
1. Is it compatible with Microsoft windows?
2. The HTC Touch HD also works off voice recognition where you can tell it to call a certain person and it will or ask how your appointments in your diary are like and it will talk back to you. does this mobile do the same thing?
Your comments would be appreciated

Been using HTC Magic for abt 1 month, simply the best phone i ever used. feature-rich, imo better than iphone OS, but not overly complicated as WinMo or Symbian devices. build quality is superb, despite made of plastic, but feels really good in hand. the size is perfect, too big and it's bulky, too small and not fun for web-browsing. Android is still at infant stage, but sooner or later it will catch up with the currently more popular platforms out there.

I went to smartone store the other day and played the demo phone for a while. But i didn't like the touch function. It is not that responsive. I have a htc diamond and i was expecting a lot improve on that. anyway track ball seems to be very useful. Is there any other phone who can beat iphone on touch function?

STU P4U, 18 Jun 2009Can anyone help me with regards to sending something via bl... moreI hope this helps...
Do you have a PC with bluetooth?
If you dont try, blutoothing from someone elses mobile or PC, bluetoothing by a mobile to mobile, simply turn both bluetooth devices on> right click in the connectivety>click paired devices or add NEW> find they're name>click connect> go through wat you want from they're phone then> click send.
If you do, turn bluetooth on your mobile and PC.
Then on PC, go to start>bluetooth or wireless file transfer> add your device on your PC> browse for music or images>click send
=)
Sorry if this doesnt help;/
