Customizable, Powerful, Interseting,

Difficult, not as appealing as Apple iPhone,

It would be on my pocket, because I can do a lot things with it.
Cause I like develop apps.

I'm not really overly concerned about the looks of a phone it's the performance I'm interested in. So the OS is more important to me. I’m planning on giving the Android OS a try.

Maybe it's because they are so dominant and obvious. You are right, I completely forgot about Symbian.

The beetle was populær because it was cheap and practical. The G1 is expensive and ugly. And why is Symbian left out of the comparison? The number one moster selling Smartphones OS in the world.

I can't believe all the people complaining about the appearance of the device. Couldn't HTC do better? Yes, but Google obviously didn't want a device that's just a little bit shinier and slicker looking than the last, only to be outdone by some other device in a few months. I think Android will be for the average joe, or college-aged crowd, that has never used any smartphone or power device before. It's easy, simple, not intimidating, not pretensious, etc. Did Google, a $20 Billion company, think about the positioning of their first device, their entry into the mobile phone market? Yeah, probably not. You should call them and offer your advice. Just like you should have called Volkswagen when they came out with the Beetle, and told them it was too ugly.

Actually it seems to handle having more apps open then my HTC Touch does. I’m pretty sure my BB Curve multi-tasks. Actually it seems to handle having more apps open then my HTC Touch does.
