I just want it so I can check out my schedule when I'm oot and aboot; I can't always keep track of when work is keeping me pinned down.

I'm pretty sure you took my comment a little too literally...

I've lived with my Motorola SLVR L7 for 4 years now.
I think it's time to upgrade.
I'm still on Rogers, and hesitant to switch to Wind.
They are getting the Captivate mid september right?
Please provide any input on what I should be considering?
Accessories, Android, lack of flash, Only a 5mp camera.

$479 off contract from at&t. Held the sample in my hands. Feels pretty good with the metal faux cf battery cover. I couldn't find an imei unlock code online anywhere unless you can show me a place that does it.

After comparing the desire (3.7 inch screen) to the galaxy (4.0 inch screen) I find that .3 really does matter. 4.0 inch just seems to uncomfortable to use.

I looked at the Galaxy today, seemed like an impressive device. Screen looked great, pretty fast, but in my opinion, the phone just didnt feel solid. It didnt feel cheap, but it lacked that heaviness that makes it feel real solid.

Played with the Vibrant at a Bell store today. Definitely like it, and will be grabbing the captivate when it comes out instead of an iPhone 4.
Can't wait to be free of the iTunes shackles.

If I had the money, I'd buy the Galaxy S. I've played around with my friends HTC running on Android and I actually like the Android OS. I'm currently using the Omnia 2 and this thing lags like a bitch because it's windows mobile OS haha.

The Omnia II lag can be significantly helped by installing a barebones custom ROM, and using SBP Mobile Shell in place of its UI. Mobile Shell is right up there with Android 2 and iPhone 3 IMO.
Samsung always makes fantastic hardware (I miss the Omnia II camera  ) but shit software (which can luckily be replaced)
I'm going to check the Galaxy S and see if it's worth switching from the Desire  | |

It's really quite easy, there are easy instructions to follow.
My rom is by this guy (that's his latest release).. He removes all the software, including the useless Samsung crap and the software you'll actually want. But he uloads CAB file for everything, so you can just install it yourself later (better yet, you can install it to external memory)
Note that these roms are for the GSM version only. If you bought yours from a Canadian carrier, these won't work. You might have to use a Verizon rom instead (not sure, so check)

I'm not really an android guy, but i've used this thing... its big! It has an amazing screen and its fast, but I'm more attached to blackberry, so my opinion is very biased.

I've been attached to my berry for quite some time. Jesus christ this thing is glorious. Tried it out at costco today; I dunno how small your guys' hands are but it slid perfectly into my hands. It's an absolute beauty, smooth UI and with flash support I am overhwelmed by how filled with awesome it is.
Once there's an unlock, and/or when Rogers gets theirs...I am so in.

Froyo update within the next month, IIRC. Java Lite installed on the phone I believe.
