Because I wanted to! Two Wongs Send a noteboard - 07/08/2010 07:19:09 AM
Undeletable apps sound annoying. Plastic sounds cheap. Trying to be an iPhone and looking like desire's little brother. What is the reason you went for the samsung instead of the htc?


I just liked it better overall.If I went for the HTC it ceases to become my personal toy and becomes a work machine. I work in IT so my life is full of hyped-up techno gadgets and sometimes I just want to pick for the fun of it, not because it's got the latest specs etc.

I'll definitely be "rooting" it as Brian suggests (which in Australia means something quite different so I'm going to start saying "hacking" instead so that people don't think I have an odd relationship with my phone). If you go with the Galaxy I'd be happy to pass along everything I learn!

It didn't really bother me Two Wongs - 07/08/2010 07:12:41 AM 284 Views
Yes, yes and yes Two Wongs - 05/08/2010 11:03:16 AM 315 Views
It sort of sounds like you like the galaxy s less than the desire, so why did you order it? Helene - 05/08/2010 01:06:54 PM 299 Views

Hard to beat? scalius - 05/08/2010 03:54:12 PM 290 Views
I checked out a review for the Evo, and it's not very positive Helene - 05/08/2010 04:01:33 PM 323 Views
Not the best review scalius - 05/08/2010 04:19:45 PM 363 Views
Maybe because my current phone has a 2 weeks standby time? Helene - 05/08/2010 04:23:41 PM 283 Views
No smart phone is going to give you that Roland00 - 06/08/2010 11:15:26 PM 278 Views
Yes, I realize this. *NM* Helene - 07/08/2010 07:15:19 AM 119 Views
That review was....odd Brian - 05/08/2010 05:46:27 PM 296 Views
She's not in the states, so the Evo isn't really an option Brian - 05/08/2010 05:42:37 PM 291 Views
I haven't used the Galaxy, although it looks pretty decent. Morgawse - 05/08/2010 04:35:12 PM 297 Views
