Please note that this phone opens every page in HTML format (like the way it opens on lapotp/dekstop). Hence it usages lot of data.
Be very careful with your data usages. Install "NetCounter" from Andriod Market and keep a daily/hourly check, else you might end up paying a lot of money on data.
I'm using the same phone, and installing applications, music, you tube and games ate almost 3 GB of data in just 9 days. I have now opted for an unlimited download data plan.
let me know if you want to know more

The better way to improve battery life is to always clear RAM memory. I put my task manager on the homescreen and from time to time I always do clear RAM memory( application running) , then 3g, wifi BT off when not in used.. I works for me... the phone could last for more than 3 days in normal used (if fully charge of course)

About questions in gingerbread, I think it will have an upgrade soon... but Froyo is not bad at all. It works flawlessly in Galaxy S just like or even better that Iphone4 OS 4.3

Ordered SGSL I9003 through letsbuy.com on Apr 15, 2011 for Rs.16,915.00 (Used coupon rcomlsb to get Rs.2985 discount, but now its giving only Rs.2000) got it yesterday evening.
I use phone mostly for browsing, SNS, Reading ebooks, music, organizing apps like calendar, Tasks & to-dos and rarely play few games & videos.
For the above usage I'm satisfied with the phone and is Value for my money.
1. Don't know about Amoled, SC LCD shows good details in the pictures and i'm ok with that.
2. Didn't yet register the divx and have to test video output, was ok with some normal vids.
I would definitely suggest this phone, if asked by any of my friends.

Here's my review at the end of a month of use : Put the Screen-Ward brand of scratch guard. As rightly pointed out by Niranjan, the responsiveness of the screen has gone for a toss. Will not replace the guard once this one comes off. Also problems with Kies continue to haunt me on my Win XP-Pro. Works fine on my cousin's Vista though.
Battery life is about 35-40 hours on an avg. with a constantly on GPRS connection, 2-3 hours of talktime and moderate texting and gaming. Have switched off live wallpapers and GPS to conserve battery as well.
Audio quality with the headphones is excellent and average without them. Ringtone volume could have been better though.
The phone is a fingerprint magnet and needs a good wiping with a soft cloth at the end of a session of messy usage. Once cleaned, looks HOT and expensive and is a sure attention grabber.
Build quality is excellent and everything feels tightly put together. The leather pouch is also a welcome addition.
Android 2.2 is still not at par with the iOS in terms of user-friendliness but makes up for it with an excellent app store.
The camera is decent for a 5MP though I have seen better 5MP cameras from Samsung. The touch-focus feature is bliss and along with a range of customisation options can make you feel like you are using a much more advanced snapper. An LED Flash is sorely missed specially considering the price (my previous phone was an iPhone 2G :( ).
Watching and recording videos is also a must-see for the sheer clarity and brilliance of the hardware (sply the screen).
With the 2.3 announced for the Galaxy S, I hope the i9003 too gets the update soon. Fingers crossed.
Overall, I would happily recommend the phone for anyone with a budget of 20k.
The next best thing costs about 25k + so take your pick wisely.
Cheers
