Thanks for making this thread. My contract is up at the end of this month and after seeing how Wal-Mart will be selling them at a good price, I too would like some input from the OCN community before adding another 2 years.

I have one for mobile gaming development and heres my take:

- Too Bulky, thick, heavy and bad form factor
- Screen is too small for the market segment its competing in.
- Poorly weighted - once screen is open its weight makes it dip forward in your hand.. like holding a pail of water.. the weight shifts and is very uncomfortable.
- User interface is poor by comparison to iPhone. non-intuitive and cludgy at best.
- TMobile is by far the worst network

+ Open platform, not a walled garden for developers and breeds competition in the market
+ It will do for open platforms what the iPhone did for re-inventing mobile appliances.

Can you provide a tad more details on the issue with the screen? Does it wobble? this might be a defect you have, or at least thats what it sounds like... I hope...

I can see your point about bulky and heavy as I did use it at the TMobile store and it was usually weighty for a phone, but coming from a guy who uses a slim phone and an iPod Nano, I was open minded about it... I think I can deal with it

I strongly disagree with T Mobile being the worst network. I have been a customer for them for years now (almost 8) and I have never had a problem, never had a dropped call, never had an area without service, never had bad customer service. DO also note I have never had their data plan so I cannot compare how their data network is. IF that is what you were referring to, please do be more specific.

I agree about the user interface being not as good as the iPhone. The iPhone I was able to pick up and start using IMMEDIATELY and start texting in seconds... I still have not found the button on the G1 that lets me text.. I had to go through contacts and use the "msg this person" feature... so its quite obvious the user interface is not nearly as good as Apple's... my initial reaction was "wow that is a lot of stuff, how do I make a phone call or text?"
