So far, the only complaint I have is that the batteries went from full charge to less than 15% in less than 10 hours. But it's pretty cool otherwise.
Seems fine considering it's the first phone/PDA type device I've ever owned. I miss my virtual keyboard.Libra Monkee wrote:How's typing on it?
The layout seems pretty functional.YesDoes it have cut and paste?
Single-touch, software limited, seems pretty good to me for fat-fingering a lot. Again, I'm coming from a stylus background for the last 3+ years.How responsive is the screen?
I can attach pictures and music to texts, so I think it does.Does it have MMS?
LOL, Google's waiting for the programmers to come up with that option.Will it cut julienne fries?
Yes, push Gmail is way addictive.complacent wrote:Awesome! How snappy are the apps? Is email push based?
What's data use like since we don't have 3G here?
Other accounts can be set-up, but aren't push. They just have to finish kicking DOD and other gov. agencies off the bandwidth they own. Forgot about this one. Yep, lots of cool programs in the Android Marketplace, and I've only tried a couple so far, but they load fast and the visuals are good. Easy to get back to home and the menu button is nice too.complacent wrote:Awesome! How snappy are the apps?
. maybe in the future though.

So far, I've only seen it blip on for less than a minute, but it was there. Others throughout the DC area are confirming it as well, but it's still very sketchy. but hey, considering DC wasn't even on the T-Mobile official radar and unofficially it's the end of Nov., I'm not complaining. Oh wow, that's cool! It's sure been a long time coming. I'm very curious to hear about usable speeds and such. We've needed another competitor for a good while.Katya4me wrote:The 3G roll-out begins!!!
I got 3G in Laurel yesterday and all along 95 in VA, just not in my office in NW, which is a bit of a signal blind hole as is. The battery seems to be getting a bit better, but it is not nearly as long lasting as what I'm used to.schvin wrote:it's a nice device. i am looking forward to the 3g rollout, because the current throughput w/o wifi is kinda weak. not that i can't say the same for the iphone, but ...
the interface is sometimes a bit not intuitive, but i am catching on. it is different, which is good.
the battery life lasted me about 8 hrs with very little use, so i'm a little alarmed, probably because i left wifi on, but i have to do more testing with that.

You're not one of those people who would mail an iphone running nmap to some company you didn't like, are you?
