It seems all the best devices come out during the holidays, or a tad bit afterwards. So like..December to early February seems like the best time, especially with the current roadmap for VZW. You are willing to switch carriers, right? For T-Mo and GayT&T, I dunno what their future plans are, but it isn't as advertised as VZW's.

Yeah. I guess T-Mobile in the US must have had the exclusive rights to package the movie on a phone. It's all over the packaging.
The thing with the G2 is that it's T-Mobile's first 4G device. So even if you don't need a QWERTY you might consider it on that basis.
But, there's also the MyTouch HD dropping soon on T-Mobile. That one is keyboardless. It might be dropping at the same time as the G2. It's also rumored to have a front-facing camera, so logically this will probably be 4G as well to take advantage of that.
Also, if the real name of the MyTouch HD is in fact the HTC Glacier (which it might well be), then it KILLED on some leaked GPU data sheets and might even be a 1.5GhZ dualcore processor.
So.... if all that is true then it's def worth waiting for.
VZW actually haven't advertised shit. There was a roadmap leaked and at least one of the devices on it as since been cancelled. It's still very good, of course. But the other carriers have a few aces up their sleeves for sure - that's what makes Android so great right now - except for AT&T, all the competition are pulling out some heavy punches over the next few months.

Motorola bringing yet another new form factor for Android:
Motorola XT300 Graduates From Blurrycam, Jumps on Video | Android Phone Fans
Not my kind of thing, but perhaps it will pull over some Blackberry or Palm Pre fans.

Well, with the rooting of the D2 and DX and the supposed flashing of a custom ROM, it looks like Motorola devices are a safe purchase now. If that eFuse thing truly was "uncrackable" then it would have sucked living with a stock phone. No matter how nice and fast it was stock.
I got the paid version of Ti Backup and uninstalled some bloatware. I also uninstalled ATK and it seems to be just as fast without it. Part of that probably has to do with 2.2 being better about running tasks. They say 2.1 was kinda iffy but pre-2.1, a task killer was beneficial.
I could have sworn there were more performance hacks for the Droid. Like 720p-something, FPS, or whatever. I can't find them.

That Motorola XT320 looks long (in length), not my kind of thing either.
Speaking of backing up, what does everyone here use to backup their messages, contacts etc to Gmail? i currently use SMS Backup by Christoph Studer; but there is an app called Backup to Gmail, just wondering if that is any good or maybe even better?

The new, official upgrade to Froyo for Samsung Galaxy S is out for auto-install:
Samsung Galaxy S now getting Froyo, a million sold in the US - GSMArena.com news
Also, a million Galaxy S sold in the US alone. This must be the best year for Samsung since.. ever.

^ Yeah it also felt weird to me. Usually I have as many apps open as my ram allows it. Even in tasks managers I often see more than 15 tasks open. Then if there's less than 20mb or so it starts shutting down inactive apps.
I was worried that maybe now they're limiting the amount of apps running in the background which would be strange since Android handles shitloads of simultaneously running apps in the background at ease.

I'm hoping I can update my phone at some point without Kies. As I don't want that shit on my PC.
Also.... Anyone got a link for the app golfshot. Just came to android. Golfshot : Golf GPS for iPhone
