    Nice interface perhaps. Little while to go yet before it's anywhere near complete though. Symbian is still the best OS for me. Sure it doesn't have an ultra glitzy interface but it can't be matched for sheer functionality.

    No system-wide file manager
    No videocalling
    No Bluetooth file transfers
    No USB mass storage mode******
    No multitasking ******
    No copy/paste*******
    Too dependent on Zune software for computer file management and syncing
    No music player equalisers
    No Flash or Silverlight support in the web browser
    No sign of free Bing maps Navigation so far
    No DivX/XviD video support
    No internet tethering support
    New ringtones available only through the Marketplace
    Swapping memory card requires hard reset; cards not readable by computer*******


    Yea, but if MS keep updating it (which they should given their size) it should be a solid contender in a few months. The iPhone didn't have most of those things at launch either.

    Sybian is like Windows Mobile which also had a terrible interface but could do pretty much anything and everything. However phones like that don't sell since they don't cater to the lowest common denominator like the current gen of smart phones do.

    Nice, I'm trying one on the good 'ol Hero in just a few minutes


    It feels good. Just restoring everything now. God it's fun
  6. effing hell Froyo is good. Even on the 'slow' Blade processor it just flies.


  7. yep, I liked it...playing around with the UI right now...
    I love how costumizable android is...check out these WP7 looks:




  8. That level of customization is where android streaks ahead. I think ill hold on to this phone for quite some time. Nice to play with.
