Wonder why they didn't allow sending files via Bluetooth, seems strange for the android platform.

How responsive is the touch screen? I know its using a capacitive touch screen as opposed to the usual crappy resistive screens that WinMo normaly uses. Resistive screens require pressure and you cant just touch the screen lightly to do anything.
Also, how does this screen work with a screen protector on it? Is the screen scratch resistant? Does a screen protector decrease the screen responsiveness? Or would you recommend not using one?
I know a lot of you out there are lucky enough to have this device already so would be very happy to hear your opinions on this.
Thanks :)

Can't wait for the software update that allows you to enter data with a Onscreen keyboard rather than always having to slide out the keyboard

I love this phone.. i was not every interested in getting this phone before of the slide out keyboard.. but after playing wit it at the T-mobile store, i just had to get it... Touchscreen is VERY VERY responsive. ONLY thing i hate about it is the BATTERY!!!!
I"m gettin very used to the Slide out keyboard..if you turn of anything that has to do with Wi-Fi, GPS, or any kind of functionality then i think the batter will last..
I had fully Charged my phone, got on Youtube a couple times, and surf the web and my battery was depleted.. but i turned off all that stuff and my phone lasted for another good 6hours with just texting and getting on browser a couple times

This phone is very good hardware, and has soo much potential. However, the battery life is suffering due to a few very fixable software issues. For people who purchased it on launch (like myself), it will be a bumpy ride, but in the end, you'll be very satisfied.

This phone is a great idea. I was wondering how it would be stable if there are no restrictions/testing for software developers.
The Iphone is still buggy without multitasking and a lot of restrictions on developers.
Symbian uses certificates to approve software stability with Nokia phones. It's a good and decent solution for smartphone stability.
Windows Mobile has no restrictions but users need to understand registry hacking to use it to its best flexibility.
People using this phone please keep us updated on the stability of the G-phone. Thks

If your GPS is on, or your sync is set up to be automatic, or your screen is very bright, your battery will need frequent recharge. I stay on the phone surfing the web, chatting, emailing and calling and stuff probably 6 hours a day and I need to recharge mine every evening.

Anonymous, 23 Oct 2008quick question my g1 will come tomorrow when i use it, ... moreI see no reason why you won't be able to use Android Market. So far all applications are free, quite a few as cool as it gets. According to the Android Community soon they will start uploading paid applications, too.

I LOVE MY G1, 23 Oct 2008I love this phone so much!!!! the only thing i still dont ... moreI think you go to Settings, then Security and Locations, and then touch, "Enable GPS satellites." You can go to Maps and use My Location. It works very good. Close to pin point accuracy. It's pretty cool, but it will kill the battery down.
