I’ve just seen the G1 and it is much better than some reports I’ve read. It is slimmer than my Nokia N95 and bigger screen. The interface is great and as a Linux user, I know the benefits of an open platform. It will give the closed platforms a run for their expensive OSs.

I have a G1 and I think it looks and feels better than a iPhone.

Plus as a developer the more phones out there that run the Android platform the more market there is. I like the openness of what Google is doing not the closed platform of Apple.

It’s probably in Google’s terms of service for using Android…

Is there a criteria for Android phones that they have to look tacky ?

First there was the G1, then the Magic and now this. I didn’t think they could make one to look worse than the G1, but they’ve truly excelled themselves here
