Rob, 10 Dec 2010@iphoned4u2 Try it without the bumper.We only use the free bumper to stop scratches so it stays on

*posted from the iphone4 squeezing the bumper case hard into the antenna joint to prove any signal issue talk is all lies.

      Be good ...
      means having at least what already exists to better market and improve.
      Be innovative ...
      is to invent what nobody has yet invented and make it truly functional.
      Nexus S improved in that innovated in !!!!!!

              SIM, 10 Dec 2010This is aimed for developers. I would wait for Galaxy S2 wi... moreThat's an interesting view. What makes you think that? Apps and games are developed on computers and then loaded onto a phone you don't really need a dedicated phone to be a developer though it does help for testing.
              This is a smartphone just like all other smartphones anyone who want it can get it.

                This is aimed for developers. I would wait for Galaxy S2 with Orion processor.

                  I think this will be my next phone , but I will wait for gsmarena review.
                  5mp camera and D1 video recording is more than enough for my needs.

                          No Super AMOLED, no purchase for me. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

                                  Looks like I am going to wait (again DUH :-S) ... another six months

                                  I currently have Samsung i900 (windows mobile 6.1 original updated firmware) bought September 2008.

                                  Let us see if Samsung Galaxy S2 will be worthy with Android 3.0 Honeycomb???

                                  2things for sure
                                  1. WP7 is not worthy and disappointing
                                  2. I am anti-Apple

                                    First of all Google should have stayed with HTC ... I liked the design, the curved display, NFC, Super Amoled, and GINGERBREAD.... BUT seriously no HD recording wtf, no MC slot why go with apple, no radio wtf again , just 5mp camera meh, and was hoping iphone like resolution .... Now i think I will better wait for HTC with Gingerbread.

                                      This model also like the galaxy s is just replica of iphone, i dont understand how they copied the exact same body as the iphone. Introduce a phone with a difference in looks from your competitors.

                                        Man this will be the greatest Disaster to hit Google's branding. Samsungs crappy builds, No SD card, D1 video, This phone will suck worse than The Kin. We can call this Android phone, Dead om Arrival, just like the HD7.
