With extremely limited calling areas. Great plan for people who talk forever and never leave town.

yeah, google's android platform should give the cell industry a swift kick in the ass, especially the smartphone industry. I'd get an HTC over a treo, btw lance, the treo's kinda overstuffed compared to the PPC-6700/6800 ('the Mogul'). Plus wifi is nice.

i don't want a windows mobile device so i'm forced into choosing between the plam treo, blackberry, or an iphone

we all know the iphone sucks and blackberry isn't my thing, so i'm stuck with a palm treo until android comes along

no windows mobile? seriously? I love my WM. Some things could be better, but the extensibility and power is worth the tradeoff.

WM does have some pretty glaring flaws, but overall, it's a pretty good platform for a mobile phone. Especially if you like hacking your phone.

A 34 company committee couldn't get a ham sandwich done right, how do we expect them to get a phone right?

Sounds like 1984 all over again.

Looks like Android is circumventing the Java problems by using its own language.
