Cool, good news! I been waiting for a more higher end Android model. I heard this one will have the sex appeal of the iphone and HTC Touch Pro II plus the functionality of WM and SE including the Cupcake OS (forbidden word ) plus a 3.5mm headset jack (wtf is that?! HTC users might ask, lol!). Looks like a great phone and am looking forward to it after I get my Touch Pro II (yeah, I will get burnt for saying that in this tiny, little Android thread surrounded by a million WM users, heheheh!) I do worry though, the article and some others state that this might be a DT thing and NOT T-Mobile USA release. Do you have any confirmation from your friend that this WILL BE coming to T-Mo. US?
this is too good to be true
Yes, he confirmed to me that it was coming to TMobile, but he didn't give me an exact date. Like I said, he has the prototype model, so I will try to snap some pics if he chooses to show me tomorrow, as he really isn't supposed to. Haha I ever offered to buy it from him, of course he said he had to decline, not because he didn't want to but because he couldn't. OH and one more major thing, is that the G1 will be released in several new colors, including red, green, and silver during the second quarter. However, that is just coming from him, no confirmation yet.

According to the article, it will have wifi.
It looks nice, has some good updates from the g1, BUT it does not have a slide out keyboard, only soft keyboard. The reason I get HTC phones only now is for the slide out.
I'm excited
This phone is uber sexy. The moment they release this phone you can bet. Ill be trading this phone in. I'm just wondering how they will root it without a hard keyboard?? Will it be rooted like the iphone is jailbroken??
A nice looking phone, but I too need the QWERTY love.
Definitely glad to see more Android phones on the market, though.
-bZj
i think the g1 looks way better then that cheap looking phone, i think all stay with a keyboard
idk, no slideout keyboard? i might have to pass on this one. it looks good though.
Wow I never thought about it. No alt-s with no keyboard. There's gotta be a way though, I mean, there has to be a recovery mode, etc.
whatever happened to this phone? It looked like a nice phone. Anyone else think it has an uncanny resemblance to the iPhone 4 which came out a year after the announcement of this?
Haha yea I agree about it looking like an iphone 4- thats exactly what I thought when I first saw the picture..
And I have no idea what happened to it, perhaps it disappeared into the rumor mill abyss. Also did you read his comment about the g1 coming out in different colours??! pink and blue, etc.. Craziness.. As far as I know that never happened either..
Wow.... So old and how naive we were back then lol.

My opinion;
Despite all the other HTC Android phones coming the Nexus One will remain on top. The reason why I think this is because having a phone directly from Google itself means you'll get updates before anybody, and popularity from any other 'Droid phone won't beat out a Android phone from Google itself.
So to everyone who has a Nexus One or those people who are scared too get one because another one might make it look obsolete..DON'T WORRY. The Nexus One will remain on top due to the fact that it's from Google itself.
Just my two cents..
I agree with you on that. I just made the leap from the TP2 after running Android on it for a couple of days. I love it. Its awesome.

LOL, I did the same thing. My TP2 is now collecting dust.
So what you're saying is that because this phone is being so heavily backed by Google it will have a very long lifespan?
I think I can agree with that
I came from the CLIQ and man is this phone a speeeeeed demon!
well so far there is very little (to none) support from google......and Nexus One is the worst cell phone experience i have ever had.
The phone is good, the hardware is good, the OS is ok.......It just feels like everything is in beta or made from cheapo parts.

Well, you know, you should lay off from Google a little. This is there first directly sold phone, and they weren't exactly prepared for all the whining and problems people were going to have. I don't know how they didn't expect for nearly everyone to complain, but apparently they weren't exactly ready to join the phone competition. They haven't had to deal with any problems till now because they have been selling their Android powered phones through carriers..
I honestly don't understand how this phone could have so many aggravations for people though.. like the above poster said, you should also be more specific.
The good thing is that if the 3g connection is good, htc/moterola/exc can't put the blame on Google, Google has to accept the blame, thus forcing them to fix it snappy (hopefully like we've seen with the radio haha)!
coming from touch pro 2 the N1 is amazing
gotta be honest i miss the keyboard but its alright
just the fact that the phone has a 1ghz processor tells me that they are palnning to keep it for a while. ive had an iphone 3g too and so far i still like the n1 the best ...
just one problem so far - the youtube player is stupid and slow... =[
other than that 5 stars

Are people still getting dust under the screen...or has that been fixed.I'm debating if I should get the N1.I had the G1 and loved all the mods you could do to it and the N1 has twice the specs so it's a powerhouse and the only phone out there close to those specs is the HD2.Man I just can't decide, maybe I should wait till all the kinks are worked out.

I don't know if there is a limit. But if there is, then there's even LESS reason to send it in right away, like so many people are doing, and then getting phones with the dust issue once again. Get the phone, enjoy, send it back at 11 months.

im sorry guys but samsung is a joke when it comes to smart phones, i will never own one. they should stick to making tvs and whatever else they make non smartphone related, i have also heard bad things about evo, something about the screen messing up at the bottom for people causing led bright light to shine so bright under the screen, kinda like that separation from the screen and the bottom of the hero how you can kinda see the light. I hate tht about the hero, why couldnt they seal that better. just piss poor

I do agree with your assessment about Samsung.....as far as software is concerned, but I have to say that the hardware and or manufacturer that Samsung uses is FAR superior to that of HTC. I came from an Instinct before the Hero. It was absolutely the worst software ever introduced on a phone but it was also the best hardware that I have seen to this day. Combine that with the upgraded tech inside and Android for the OS it really cant be bad. Then again, after the Instinct, I swore that there would never be another Samsung in my pocket. lol I'll probably keep to that promise.
While i agree that sammy's suck.. this looks to be a great play for sprint.. the more hi-end androids the better.. maybe they can steal some thunder from verizon and their onslaught of droids..
If sprint will market these hi-end androids against verizon and att showing that the plans are way better.. etc.. and do it right..maybe sprint can gain some some customers etc..
Take dan off the air.. bring back the pin drop guy from way back.. then promote the hell outta the plans and phones.. lol sure fire win in my book.. or just show some t & a holding the evo etc..lol
My fiance has the moment and I do kinda like theslide out keyboard, nice for the terminal apps and stuff. Also nice when you dont feel like swyping or typing on the virtual kb.

you are correct about sam and their hardware components. Far superior to htc. Is this sam going to run android? i guess i should take a look at that link.
I don't like samsung phones, but I do like power.
This phone has a 1ghz processor, but that doesn't say it all.
Supposedly this particular 1ghz HummingBird processor is 3 times more powerful than the snapdragons we drool over.
Crappy software...maybe...but AOSP on this thing? HOLY CRAP!

Can I get a cool story bro?
So, I know that my launch N1 has more days behind it than ahead. I love the phone, but know that something will be out soon for me with a keyboard. I really just wanted to say that I wish manufacturers would keep the trackball w/ notification colors going. I've really come to depend on it as of late. A simple, genius idea that should continue.
Oh well.

Exactly. But Google will probably release a new dev phone for the next Gen ... 2 gigahertz processing and after gingerbread.
There will always be a Dev phone, hopefully next time (not that im regretting) Google wont skimp on the true multitouch and the other minor-ish issues with the NExus ONe.
I will be getting another phone in the next 6 months; the urge to upgrade is just too hard to resist. But I will miss the trackball color notifications.
A notification LED that can be set in the same way and an optical trackpad would do. Not quite as good since I would not be able to see it across the room, but I could work with it.
Ugh..I feel the same.
None of the prospective power phones have them either. Does anyone know if the recent slab of Android phones at least has RGB LEDs somewhere on the face ?
What annoys me is that the 4+ inch phones are starting to skip on trackpads alltogether. Very very disconcerting.
Was wondering if we could get some of the top devs to chime in on what is the next device they are going to move on to now that the Evo has gotten a little long on the tooth. I'm on the fence on what my next phone is gonna be. Evo 3D or Galaxy S II. I'm partial to the GS II. The specs sound incredible but don't want to get it & have no Dev support. Case in point, the Epic. I've heard from Myn personally & he's on board with the 3D & I've heard through the grapevine that Aamikam is too. So what about Calkulin, toastcfh, flipzmode, ViRuS, netarchy, and others. Sorry if I left anyone out but those are off the top of my head.

Well I my upgrade came June 4th so I can grab the 3D on the 24th or wait for the Within whenever it get released. I'm trying to narrow it down because last year I bought the Evo on release date and purchased the Epic a few months for my second line. I walked around with both for months but rarely used the Epic. It was an alright phone, and spec wise it was better than the Evo but the devs are what really made the Evo for me. That and the fact that I despise TouchWiz with all of my being. Finally got rid of that second line and trying to make a good decision. Want to get the Evo but pound for pound the GS II is the champ. To me the dev support is gonna be the final decision maker. I'm a flash-a-holic and I need my fix for new and different roms.

Surprised nobody has commented on this -
Samsung is going to have a NINETY second spot during the superbowl!
A normal 30 second spot costs around 2-3 million bucks, and samsung is buying three of them! Whoa
The commercial is being directed by the Farrely brothers (There's something about mary, etc)

That's odd... people normally don't even notice how big the phone is when I'm talking on it... (possibly cos it's mostly hidden by my hands ).
People do, however, notice its size if I'm using it for other stuff like messaging or browsing...
OT: I'm really happy Samsung has been pushing this phone into the mainstream so much. It's an awesome device. And it'll be even greater with all the development support that comes from being a mainstream success.

Not a big fan of the commercial to be honest.
They sure didn't say much for a 90 second spot.
But I guess the whole point is to get people talking about the note, and then the Note will take it from there.
Is it this one?

Dont let a Samsung employee hear you calling it a stylus
I hope they do something outrageous about it like it having a dual personality, a phone and a tablet, and it falls in love with an iPhone and follow it across the country. Oh wait, they already did that.
EDIT: ARRGH, my post is too late.
GIANTS won! Yeaaaaaa
Thought it was great! Really makes people think about a bigger better option, the Note. No hard sell just fun and entertainment, better than the half time show. The next three ads will do the rest. Haven't met anyone yet that didn't want my Note.
I won't say the Giants won as much as they just got lucky.
Waste of 9 million bucks. Terrible Imo
From the giant: Galaxy Note
why what do employees refer to it as?
Wish the ad showed some of the features of note, rather than people screaming around
Was really hoping for a much better spot outta Samsung on this one. Thought their previous commercials were great. Although i will say, i had 3 friends text me saying they saw a commercial for my phone.

^^^ This. If I didn't know what the ad was for (and I hadn't been following the Note for months now) I would think it was just another Android handset with that pointy stylus thing that Steve Jobs said was bad. Not a single thing special about it. Didn't feel like 90 seconds; seemed like it was over and I was still waiting for some tangible "here's why this thing is awesome" moment(s). Oh well. As the Note has done elsewhere in the world, I'm sure it'll sell itself on the merits as people start using them.
The add was lame. I was sold on the specs alone before the thing was ever announced (just rumored) ... Of course we have to remember, most people aren't nerds like us...
The downside to it's success is that, unlike the Dell Streak I'm writing this on, I wont be the only person I know who has one! When I whip out the Streak I always realize that no one has ever seen a phone like this. That is about to end...
The upside is of course that the development from this community, and the updates from Samsung should be great.
