Who has one? What you got? And what do / don't you like about it?

I just got a new one - the HTC Desire. It's really nice, although I'm trying to get used to the Android OS.

Hi Paul.. your new phone looks cool!

I current have an Apple iPhone 4.. this is my second iPhone and I must say that it is quite awesome. I have yet to see a phone that is smoother for using the internet. It has a crystal clear screen picture with the ability to zoom around the internet with ease. The biggest drawback is that it currently doesn't support websites that need adobe flash players. Slight bummer at times.. but overall a minor issue for me.

About 90% of all my internet use including this posting right now is through the use of my iPhone 4. Add in iTunes and all the apps available and it is quite addictive. [Wink]

Valley, I have an iPod Touch, so know what you mean about ease of use and the drawback regarding Flash. I have to say that so far, the web browsing on the HTC is on a par woth the iPhone, and they DO support flash.... [Smile]

I'm having to look through the Android market to see what other apps are available - I know it's not a patch on he Apple Store, but you never know what you might find!

Paul,

I have the same Smartphone. It's been superseded by a number of other phones, but I won't be upgrading for a long time.

A few apps that I use :

Parcels - Keeps track of your deliveries.
Dropbox - Easily send files to any computer you have synced with your Dropbox account.
PowerAmp - Awesome audio player
Movies - See what movies are playing in your local cinema.
Spiceworks - Monitor the status of your home PC.
Handcent SMS -- a great sms/mms tool.
Gensoid/Nesoid/GBCoid - 8/16 bit console emulators.
DoggCatcher - find/manage podcasts/rss.
Barcode Scanner - look up prices/reviews.
CamScanner - CamScanner turns phone to a document scanner.

What app's have you looked at so far? How are you finding the Android OS now?

Droid X. I heart the Pandora radio app. It makes a long night at work much shorter.

Best app for my iphone 4?

Songkick.

Basically it finds your geographical location and allows you to add nearby cities also then scours your music library.

Any artists in your library decide to play in the area you have selected...BOOM! Instant notification with an e-mail backup!!

I'm actually switching from a Blackberry curve to the white iPhone 4 very soon. Thought about getting a Droid but the iPhone seemed like a better choice. I have not been happy with the Blackberry AT ALL so I'm looking forward to switching!

Hmmmmmm.....I usually get my friend's hand me down when they get a new phone. Still resisting this technology, as I'm not a big fan of cell phones in general....me and my wife share one phone and only our parents and a few friends have the number. I'm sure I'll take the plunge someday....just not quite ready. That being said, I'm starting to become very curious about all these smart phones and all the cool things they can do.....

I have had 2. The Samsung Intercept and now the Samsung Galaxy. I love my phones. I use to work for Att and it was a headache dealing with the iphones. Kudos for you guys that know how to use your phones.
