                This phone also has an excellent music player that is easy to use and has a good video player. Overall, this phone is excellent, but it still does have its faults as a result of Android 1.5. You can get a custom ROMs in many different places. If you update to 1.6, you will be very happy with this phone.

                    Phone is quite nice- fast, good looking Android, nice gps, divx support.
                    Looking forward to Android 2- theres no official version for Samsung, but Htc Hero is also still running on old 1.5... we just had to wait.

                      They should have kept that ambitious name for something more special indeed.

                          It's December and still no Android 1.6 or 2.0 for this phone. In fact Samsung has not even said if they are working on it. The PC software is still completely broken. Stay away.

                              So ugly-looking phone. And the design is taken from 2005 models. Very bad product from Samsung. Perhaps they thought Android lovers give a damn about the style / design.

                                      Android still new and limited.

                                      Wait for Android 2.0 to see what enhancement will add on.
