    There's talk of the N1 in Vodafone sometime in the next month. Heard anything about that? I know you don't work on android, but surely people talk to each other in there!;)

    I did actually hear a rumour about it coming to Vodafone, that was a couple of months ago before it ever actually launched, I just saw a list of operators by country. No update on timeline though, sorry!

    Yeah, it's a pain alright. When the only way to get an Android phone was by ordering on Ebay or wherever it might have made sense, but the fact that they are now offering the phones in retail stores makes it a bit annoying not to offer the paid apps to go with it!

    Found the Android o/s refreshing,flash or "root" what ever you get and you wont want for anything,windows mobile user for years and Android beats it hands down for out of the box usability.Just my opinion!

    Yep, after 3 years of symbian (N95 - N95 8GB which were great) I got a HTC Desire.

    Would never go back to symbian. Got into Android when offered a Tattoo on upgrade from Vodafone last year. Have since upgraded to Nexus 1. Loving it...

    Possibly. I don't know what Nokia have in store but Symbian^4 looks fairly promising as an OS. No way will that be out on any devices until early 2011 though. Symbian^3 devices are coming out late 2010 so they should be somewhat interesting to see.

    At the moment I wouldn't even consider a Symbian device with the current state of the OS. When Symbian^3 and Symbian^4 are released we'll see how it fares.


    I went from an N95 8GB (An EXCELLENT symbian based phone) to an N97 Mini (Had it for three days before I returned it, enough said...) to my HTC Desire. For touch screen phones Symbian S60 doesn't stand a chance against Android

    Went from N70 (loved it) to N95 8gb (Amazing) to N97 (complete let down).

    Counting the days to Payday so i can get the Desire (4 more days for those interested :))

    Ha! This quite funny but interesting at the same time.
    I went from android to windows and now going back to android.
    Interesting to see how so much has changed in the mobile market in a (relatively) short space of time.
