Anyone else got one of these? Got mine 2 weeks ago, and very very happy with it.
Plus points:
Works seamlessly (so far) with Gmail, Google contacts and google docs (all of which I use a lot). Plus Google maps, Picasa and Youtube. All work more or less fine (see below for the 'less' bit)
The android apps site is good... plenty of free stuff to fill up your phone with, and some genuinely useful utilities... best of which (in a cycling vein) is My Tracks (again, a google app)... basically turns phone into an excellent GPS system... very good indeed. I've stuck it in my back jersey pockets on two rides, (one = 18 miles, one = 49 miles) and got very good maps from them, which you can save and view online, view in google earth etc).
Minus points:
Camera is a bit ropey (but good enough). Has no zoom or flash though.
Battery life poor.
Picasa... uploading pics taken in 'landscape' format turns them sideways on picasa web albums, and you can't rotate them from within that site. Can rotate first on phone, but still seems to do that.
Anyone else?
