Likes: -Openness of platform (especially that I can easily install my own applications - not only from 1 heavily monitored store) -Variety of applications available for the phone (there are some real innovative ideas emerging) -Extra Camera functionality (especially the barcode reading functionality). -Size, and form factor. I love the keyboard, big screen, and think the phone is small enough to fit in my pocket comfortably. -Durable screen -Internet integration (including GMail and GCalendar); This is the first phone I have ever had that sync's well with the world.
Dislikes -Becomes sluggish at times, requiring frequent reboots. -GPS reliability (my phone is very unreliable when it comes to location-based services). -Camera isn't very good (doesn't take great pictures even in good light, with a perfectly still hand) -Integration with non-Gmail email providers (the email app is awful when trying to use other services - YMail, etc) Things I want -A2DP -sudo (or some kind of extra access so I can kill rogue applications, or look a little deeper into the system - especially the data folder). -G2, or G3, or G4 (next android phones which will be faster and more polished and even better) -Peace in the Middle East On Feb 8, 3:06 am, Al Sutton <[email protected]> wrote: > and a thought based user interface......... > > Seriously though, lets talk about the next iteration of 'phones, not 20 > or 30 iterations down the line, that way any OEMs who subscribe can get > an idea of what they should be including in order to please the users. > > Al. > > > > gjs wrote: > > and waterproof to 15m ;-) > > > On Feb 8, 12:32 pm, gjs <[email protected]> wrote: > > >> Hi, > > >> I'll answer this more along the lines of what I would like the g1/ > >> android to become - > > >> 8mp camera with good optics and zenon flash > >> hd video recording > >> 800 x 480 multitouch widescreen sunlight readable display( or better ) > >> accelerometer, air pressure, compass, gps, humidity, pitch, proximity, > >> roll, and thermometer sensors > >> sd card application support > >> 32 gb internal memory or more > >> dual cpu 1ghz > >> long battery life > >> two or more cameras > >> root access > > >> I know this is pie in the sky at this time, but hey the G1 is called > >> the Dream here in OZ so that's what I'm doing :-) > > >> Regards > > >> On Feb 7, 7:22 am, Ed <[email protected]> wrote: > > >>> Likes: > > >>> -Amazing potential > >>> -More open model in almost every category than Apple's > >>> -As a rooted phone, it's incredibly flexible and addresses many of the > >>> dislikes already mentioned (tethering, cannot terminate applications, > >>> installing apps to SD, etc) as well as some I list below* > > >>> Adding on to the list of dislikes: > > >>> -apps required for basic workarounds (screen timeout during phone > >>> calls, etc) > >>> -can't change desktop icons, widgets, menus, etc* > >>> -no task manager* > >>> -no multitouch* > >>> -no autorotation feature* > >>> -physically not as attractive as some other phones > >>> -sluggish responsiveness at various times > > >>> On a final note, RC33 seems to be a bit snappier than the previous > >>> versions.
