    Update, Samsung delivered Galaxy S this morning along with shall we call it phone x as there is no name for it yet and just in test period. So far Galaxy S is superb beats the HTC and iphone hands down, set up very easy. Screen very clear and responsive, on first looks if it wasn't for saying samsung would mistake it for iphone and makes HTC look like a cheap alternative. Phone x. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! roll on it's release, 18 months they say, this will revolutionise the way a lot of people do things. I can't get hold of it atm my development lads have nicked it and seem to be drooling at the mouth and stroking it fondly :D. I am not allowed to say much about it bar it's android. Will keep you updated.


    Cool, I just took out an 18 month contract :)

    while your lads are drooling, can you ask them to make a quick anonymous video about phone x and ask them to upload to youtube! and do post a linky here :p

    ps: post a linky of your apps produced by your company too with videos of what they actually do, if possible, as am curious.

    If it does go on youtube they are sacked. As for the apps will do you a list and link. Update the Galaxy is really a superb phone and if anything the touch screen and the swipe typing beats apple for it's responsiveness. As for looks I still can't work out who copied who, mind you someone has already found an app you can't get on this you can on the iphone, would you believe the stool or poo scanner.
    Approach her; adore her. Behold her; worship her. Caress her; indulge her. Kiss her; pleasure her. Kneel to her; lavish her. Assert to her; let her guide you. Obey her as you know how; Surrender is so wonderful! For Caroline my Goddess.

    Swype is amazing, when i installed it on my Desire i was quite sceptical but was instantly impressed and cant see myself owning a non swype compatible phone again.

    is your phone "x" based on the 'new' windows mobile platform, i know that quite a few handsets have been handed out for trial as per reports online. most of the reports have been good but does not seem to have multitasking or copy paste yet :eek:

    have you tried the beta of swift keyboard, the prediction is great, many swype users say it is better than swype, still in beta stage though and editing is a bit of a pain on it though. i am trying it out.

    have you tried out thick buttons keyboard, that might interest older users with poorer eye sight etc. i have just downloaded that, not tried it yet. this might interest your target market.

    If you have an Android based one it basically means you can't afford an iPhone so you slag them off in jealousy.

    you cant be serious with that!

    or if you are indeed serious, you are misinformed about the financial capacity of others. some on here could probably buy the iphone in a few 'hours worth of pay'! no bloody phone is more expensive than a car (bar a few super expensive ones). most of us on here can afford a car i guess, so you would be grossly wrong on your statement about not being able to afford iphones being the reason to buy android.

    there is a difference between being able to pay more and being stupid enough to pay more! that statement is just in reference to your statement (no personal offence intended) and not to any other iphone owners. people buy what they prefer, costs are a small part of the decision making, a large part is based on what we like and desire i guess, like with most things in life.

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: We have a winner :D

    Highly ironic that on a Money Saving :money: site you should be slaging people off for spending less anyway!
