Umm my wife's a mom and she's waiting with baited breath for hers to come. Having said that I get your points. They shoulda had a side by side I4 showdown.

Android needs something like the apple commercials the ones with the old guy in a suit vs young hip guy. Maybe compare the apple empire to a totalitarian dictator, non-I tunes media NEIN!

That commercial was so good until the mom thing... wtf? My mom held my phone and didn't know how to even make a call on it. She couldn't even open the keyboard.
My girlfriend doesn't even know how to open the keyboard right. Come on man...

I've had the FX network going in the back ground for the past few hours, the commercial has been on several times so far. I'm thinking the mom thing can be attributed to the holidays coming up.

lol maybe... sike i kid i kid. It's funny because there was a thread saying this phone needed more marketing and now we have this which basically says we're all stay at home mom's lol jk

I love the ad but the fact that they tag this a moms phone kinda sets it back compared to other phones from a marketing standpoint.. if your a guy around my age (22) and don't know anything about the G2 and see this commercial would u trade your iphone or evo for the G2.. I'm jus sayin!!

Paid full price to upgrade from a Vibrant I'd only had for 5 months. Totally worth it. There are some legitimate concerns, but most the people complaining either don't actually have one or just didn't research what they were buying.
Or they're morons .... either way .... best Android phone on the market. FULL STOP.
Im on htc desire amoled, full rooted
With desire HD port, everything is running ok .. really leaning towards getting the nexus S now though since its the new kid on the block with samoled , but unfortunately not available in my area and when it is will b v expensive . I was wondering , htc desires market went up cuz it was Nexus1's sister, but what about galaxy S . Will it get more quick and easy development now just like Nexus S will in future, as both phones are hardware wise mostly the same so there should b ez portability and porting?
Comments /opinions please .
Thanks.

Here you go

I sold my Vibrant.

I put it up on eBay for slightly above the average selling price. When I put the phone up, the phone was still running stock. Recently I put Nero on it and started to like it, but then woke up and bam, it was gone =\
I'll be back!
Congrats. I just ordered another phone and my brother will take the vibrant off my hands for $350 next Friday. He's phone-illiterate so it wont matter to him.

Sorry bub, I love my Samsung Epic. I am running it with Gingerbread. You know what the best thing is some dude is working on port HTC Sense to the Samsung Epic. Dude you are screwed. Try posting an ad on craigslist too, if you have not already done this. You might find some sucker who has the Samsung Epic with Enclair. You can probably tell them that your phone is better because it has a better operating system or some crap that that. Good luck they say a sucker is born every minute.

Farewell epic

Just wanted to say goodbye to the epic 4g. I recently traded my epic for a nexus s 4g, and I couldn't be happier. I wanted to say thanks to all the great devs that made the epic what it should have been out of the box. My decision was confirmed for me when my wife's LG Optimus s got an ota gingerbread update the other day! Before the epic! Crazy! For me its all nexus phones from now on. There will be some features that I miss from touchwiz, but for the performance and update trade off, I'd gladly go vanilla android. Thanks again for everyone who made the epic an awesome phone!

Pretty ****ty that my niece just got a new Android through METRO PCS (probably the worst provider in the U.S.), and she has Gingerbread. Glad I paid all of this money for something treated like a red headed step-phone.
Disgusted with Samsung beyond belief. What is taking so long to release this? It looks like they are working on it, but I don't understand what is taking so long. Not that I am available for an upgrade right now, but even if I were, there is nothing out there that I really want right now (QWERTY is something I really want).

I noticed the Nexus S is cheap and alright but wondering if there are any other ones. Not trying to replace mine but to have fun with and do other stuff. I can buy a Nexus S for about 75$ barely been used. But what about the HTC Evo Shift? Any tips Is appreciated.
I dont want older phones haha, nothing more than 100$.
I dont want to add a new line or activate any phone.
Not too interested in tablets. Something that still isn't too dead and is over-clockable as the Epic if not better.

Whoever said the Samsung Moment should be charged with treason against nerd kind lol. (Had it, didn't hate it until later, had it data lock up after being in a hit and run and couldn't call 911)
I'd probably say the Nexus, only due to the nature of it getting updates and more open space for customization.

That was the issue with the Sammy Moment i even talked to Samsung and they realized it was their fault and non-user related that it forced into a data lockup and FCC states that a phone must at all times be able to call 911. and yaadada big story but anyways is there any other phones you guys think thats reasonable and good to like the Nexus S? i was thinking of the Shift?
lol.. easy there guys.. i was joking (name IS PvtJoker afterall) I was laughing cause my moment is sitting on my desk under a nice veil of dust. If i had to pick a random phone just to play with, nexus s would be my pick too.

The nexus s is a developer phone that you root with adb. The droid is locked down and 100 % unrootable (in theory. It is rootable but it is hard to.. It is locked down like the iphone) .
