I get mine today, and I was wondering what is everyone's favorite thing about the nexus one compared to their old android device...
the speed. they did some amazing things with overclocking on the G1, but I love that my N1 runs silky smooth right out of the box.
I can't really compare it to my 'other' android device, since it's my first android;
However, my favorite thing is the extreme ease of navigation and installation of new apps from the market (especially browsing and downloading more apps before finished downloading current apps).
I also love the combining of contacts (all my facebook, gmail and SIM contacts are now joined and merged).
Thats good to know, so hopefully that means I wont miss the lag of my mt3g
Man I am excited... I wish FedEx would hurry up, its supposed to be here by 3, but something all ways seems to happen so, with my luck I think it wont be here till tomorrow lol.

You can check the tracking # to see if it is out for delivery... just make sure someone is there to sign for it!
My favorite thing is the speed, its so fast, everywhere. The thing I was most suprised about is how good the camera quality is, its great for random pictures that im not gonna take out my slr for.

Yea well it says its supposed to be here by 3pm but then at the bottom it says Feb 10, 2010 1:27 AM Shipment exception INDIANAPOLIS, IN "Delay beyond our control" so IDK if it is going to make it by 3 today... and there havent been any other updates so IDK, I know when you call and listen to the telephone tracking it says its on schedule so I am a lil lost and anxious lol

If that is true, then it looks incredibly cheap and tacky!
Winmo7 with HTC sense over the top to make it look half decent again lol
looks like microsoft are trying to make the today screen look like a bog standard phone so as not to scare away people who have never used windows mobile previously.
if that home screen isnt customisable then ill eat my hat.
Not sure anyone has view this interview before :

Over at one of the biggest gadget site's engagdet.com people are very positive about this! I come to XDA, then I see this. Why are you so negative??
IMO, this at least shows they are going a NEW way with WM7. I am really really excited about this.. just 2,5 hours left!

Nice. The lack of a gazilion tiny task-specific buttons indicates that WM 7 is gonna have a real touch-based interface. I like that.
very nice interface
I want that for my HD2
IMHO - that looks really nice - now I just hope that it will be made available for the HD2...
Ugly as hell. Gonna wait for the official presentation before drawing any conclusions though.

yup..same here....
far too many rumours and photoshopped stuff going around these days. easy to get excited and think that a lot of stuff is coming, only to find out it was a fake or was removed from the final released version.
As long as it's configurable (i.e.: I can get rid of it!), the interface doesn't bother me.

I'm just bored of rumour this, rumour that. I'd rather see it working than a print on a wall.
Loved the UI! Exactly what I was expecting! Its the User Experience that matters rather than the User Interface! And MS has done that this time!
Around half and hr to go now! Lets wait and watch!
Hold your horses... Maybe it's the WM6.6... ?
Damn people ...
Take it easy guys till Microsoft shows this thing, .... I think the preview looks good. lets hope there is more to it than that tho!
it was pretty much as beautiful as i though it would be, my co worker is the advocate for our store. ill post pics later the packing is a little on the wierd side, but its eco friendly lol.
***pics posted taken from hero came***
***update2 just posted 2 new pics video coming when i upload it***
I don't know why the box is making headlines... its what's inside that matters. I love the box, new and eco-friendly.
Jealous that you got to play with it!

Comparing the screen to the iPhone, is it glass or plastic?
I'm switching from iPhone to Evo but I have not had the chance to hold one and compare build quality.
My question is how much lag is there? Not just the home screen but the apps. FOr instance, when you open messages, how long does it take to display things? That's the number one thing I hate about Sense. Too much f-ing lag.
joecrack305, if you're in miami let me know which store so that i can come check it out.

Wait for the op's pic.
sorry havent responded
i have both hero and iphone and they feel plastic, the evo def feels like glass.
lag wise not existent at all i swear its so smooth
jvs60 - no ones technically suppose to know about us having the evo, but every corp store in america has one person with a evo. my supervisor is the one with the evo and i know my manager def wouldnt be a happy camper if i told you to swing by, but go to any store in miami and ask to see the evo advocates phone test your luck.
tried seeing one at my local corporate sprint store. met the advocate who had it, said he was sworn to not show it off or he would get in trouble.
it is so awesome. I feel like the guy from the burger king commercial who has the small hands and hates going to burger king when I am holding it. It is pretty big, and comes with an 8gb card in it. No lag at all when putting live wallpapers on there (unlike my rooted hero). Damn I love this phone!
giddyup!
I feel like such a school girl! This thing won't be out for another 3 weeks, and I'm scouring the internet for everything EVO!
From what I've seen online, the lag is minimal...remember it has a Snapdragon 1Ghz Processor in it...Go play with a HD2 and you'll get a feel for the speed...Android 2.2 is supposed to be faster than 2.1 from what i heard also.

They are great in metros but in rural coverage is spotty and most of the time roaming. At least around here.

Can you play with the keyboard? Is it easy to type and stuff? I am coming from using a slide out keyboard so I am kinda worried about having to start using a onscreen keyboard.
thanks
The hero was my first onscreen keyboard and the iPhone was my second
The hero I'd give a 7
the iPhone 10
evo so far a 10
The screen is so big and easy to type on it's amazing for the hero I use swype now and I will probably use that in the evo when I switch
Some of you may Know me, some of you Don't..
Just thought I'd say hello & make a Quick Post to let everyone know I'll Have the Vibrant soon & Hoping I can Add to the Community, along with Barakinflorida..
Currently I'm $70 away from getting my Phone, So hope to see everyone soon in the Dev. Threads...
Until then, Happy Developing

So yesterday i received a cr-48 from google. I about **** myself. Being one of the lucky ones i decided to start a blog that compared my evo and the netbook. What I'm looking for is ideas to do comparisons on. From simple to complex and anything in between. After a day of pretty intense use i haven't been able to find much on the basic side of things that one trumps the other on.
So shoot me ideas on what i could try to make these 2 devices do battle with. Post 2 will be reserved for things covered and things to be covered. I will try to keep up with this as much as possible and post my review and comparison at http://evovscm48.blogspot.com/

Google Voice and Video Chat
At least give us a picture of the thing, sheesh.
How is the call quality on the netbook? I know...bad comparison. I bet the evo wins.
This gives me a great idea! I got these apples the other day, I'm gonna go out and get me some oranges and do a comparison.
I kid, I kid.

I know, I was just messing with you I'm pretty pissed, I signed up the minute they launched their pilot program and I haven't gotten one. I wonder if they take browsing history into account when selecting who these go to... That might explain why I wasn't picked.

Wow, you got your Cr-48 late. I got mine 2 months ago when they first started shipping.
Have you discovered where the dev switch is yet?
Hell...I'm just happy I got one.
I just got mine too a couple days ago.
I haven't gotten one yet, still hoping to, but I've seen some other sites that say that the cr-48 has Bluetooth in it so that plus the Verizon card built into it might work for calls or voip.

[OFFTOPIC] SGS2 is a total disappointment... "Important" functions NOT working...
I read about all the features of the phone, it all got me very excited but some things are not working...
First of all, it doesn't bring me beer when I use vlingo and say " get me beer"
Second of all, Crysis 2 is not running at all. Phone's not that fast..
Last point: I put my phone into airplane mode, threw it in the air.....
Worst transformer ever.....
The rest is working pretty damn fine, so its maybe not a total failure. What are you disappointed about?
First I was like "Hahaha.. NOT" but after a few seconds I started laughing at your post xD
I have not been blessed with a GS2 yet, still waiting. The only thing I could be disappointed about is: build quality/how it actually feels in (my) hands. Further the TouchWiz and Battery life are two things I am semi-worried, but you know TW can be replaced by custom launcher or ROM and Battery life should be decent with tweaks.

Build is better than it looks, but the same goes for the sgs1. Dropped mine once and nothing to see, wiped the grains off and no damage at all. For the sgs1 you could buy stronger backplates and the same will go for this phone, looking at its sales. Samsungs internal build quality is actually one of the best in the business so I wouldn't be to worried. Touchwiz 4 is quite nice. Huge improvement over tw3, still I ditched it within 2 days. Launcherpro all the way for me
It's so thin, i can barely see it, wait...
because the thing i am disappointed is, that we still not have it here in Germany.
We should get this Phone about the same time as UK, but forget it. We are still waiting for that. Most of the people are ordering the phone in UK or Austria because they have it already and not only that, they still get new charges.
I like this Forum and i would like to make some Tweaks on this phone too, but i don't even know when I can get it.

First and foremost, this phone is utter crap, it ate hundreds of my lovely British pounds before I could even pick it up.
I thought it looked amazing so I spread some cheese on it, but it didn't taste ANYWHERE near as good as it looked, now it turns out I need to feed it even MORE money before it will work again...
Seriously upset.

They ARE the best in the business. Look around, nothing comes even close. They manage to fit virtually everything in (more ram then anyone else, quality cpu, screen out of this world) light and this THIN -->

Other companies are feeling the pressure now. 4inc and over screens need lightness otherwise it just becomes a brick, but then they have to fit in all the top specs inside too and they don't have the tech yet to do that.
