Although if you root it (which is not that hard if you're reasonably techie) you can install one of the third-party ROMs like cyanogenmod which has backported a lot of the new stuff in 2.0 and 2.1 onto the 1.6 basePiemaster said:G1 can't be upgraded beyond Android 1.6 - Cupcake.

If not, I may be forced down the Blackberry route after all.
Piemaster said:Two words 'fatty battery', for the G1 anyway, dunno if they come for other android phones. Adds about 1/3 to the thickness. I got one mainly for tracking routes with 'My Tracks' as the gps really hammers the battery. Apparently the phone will boost the signal to its max if it can't pick up a 3G signal until it does pick one up as well - turning off the 3G does help but seems a bit pointless to me as it negates a lot of the phones functions. Wifi doesn't help battery life either.
Iphone 3GS apparently isn't any better for battery life either once you start turning everything on.
