After upgrading to 4.0 it's pretty dissapointing. It's basically the same shit and I don't find the multitasking to be all that great. Considering we get like one big update from them a year it's not very impressive. My phone is also a bit laggy now, even typing this the letters can't keep up. I think they put more thought into the design of the new iPhone than the update. Posted via RS Mobile |

I have a 3G and 3GS and the 4.0 update is great! I must say that it performs much better on the 3GS, even with the multitasking aside.
If you are having performance issues I suggest a full wipe and restore with 4.0 and then sync to get your data, apps, and music back, don't do a restore from backup tho or you will be back to square one. Posted via RS Mobile | |

How is the applications compatibility? Does everything that worked in 3.1.3 work in 4.0?
EDIT: A bit of Google work came up with this link for apps compatibility

Androids are looking a lot nicer these days. It looks like it will be another year before apple tackles the shitty notification system they have too.
I think the only thing keeping me right now is the iPod capabilities lol...from what I hear the android music player still needs work Posted via RS Mobile | |

The music player on the Nexus One running Android 2.2 isn't bad. I don't think it has EQ and all that other stuff but there is shuffle, repeat, etc
One thing I've noticed is that their facebook app doesn't send you all the notifications like it did on the blackberry. You'd get a notification everytime you got poked or tagged in a pic but that doesn't happen on the Nexus. There are days (like tonight) where I logged into Facebook and see 22 notifications that I never received on my phone.

Even the native FB app doesnt give notification, gotta log into the touchmobile FB site to see them
good news is that FRF72 version of LeoFroyo should be available tomorrow! only because LeoFroyo has no radio attachment to their roms!

I just use email notifications to check my facebook notifications. Since it's PUSH, they come in immediately.
The Facebook app for Android sucks. touch.facebook.com is actually better  | |

The BB FB app sucked donkey balls. Reloading friends and trying to view photos on that thing was like pulling teeth

The WM one wasn't so bad. Actually it was pretty much identical to the Android one IIRC. I just expect more from Android, it should be at LEAST as good as the iphone app.

Alot of the links don't work. Posting is a hit and miss. Slow...... Can't post screenshot... I can go on and on about the bugs... what sucks is the previous version i had work great and than fb updated the app with no new feature and break several other features and they don't seem to be releasing anymore updates

I actually don't care bout scratches on the back but it just bugs me that they claim it's unscratchable then BAM first day there's already been so many cases of scratching.

I think thy are smart enough to not make a statement like that. Unless it's a diamond plated coating the glass is scratch resistant at best. IMO peopl that worry about scratches and won't invest in protection should not get any apple portable products. Most of them scratch if you look too hard at it. Apple has always been form over function Posted via RS Mobile | |

They don't say "unscratchable" but they say "more scratch resistant than ever". That in itself is a bold claim, and reports of scratches within 5 days makes them look pretty bad.

In their defense, the article doesn't mention how the scratch got there. For all we know, his girlfriends/SO's diamond ring may have scraped the phone and caused the scratch. I think even the most hardest of surfaces would scratch if it was marred by a diamond or a similarly hard object.
The pictures are pretty crappy so it's hard to tell what the extent of the scratching is, but from the pics, it looks like there's only one single scratch. I'd like to see some better pics of the device to see if there's other lighter scratches/swirls to see what the real scratch resistance is.
