I've been using the HTC Dream for a couple of weeks now, and it's been pretty good so far. I haven't had to break out any hacker-fu to get anything working. Mostly I just had to download apps to do stuff. The only complaints I have are that battery life is too short, especially when 3G is on, and I can't find an app allowing me to transfer files with bluetooth. If anyone can point me in that direction, I would be much obliged.
- sketerpot 18y agoI've been holding off for a few months, waiting for other Android devices to come out. The way I see it, Apple just has the iPhone. Android can run on anything else.
- zcrar70 18y agoTrue, but the upcoming devices (only the HTC Magic as far as I can see) don't seem that much more appealing than the G1. I like that the G1 has a physical keyboard, that's pretty much the main reason I bought mine (as opposed to waiting for the HTC Magic).
- Zaak 18y agoI believe that bluetooth support on Android is currently limited to headsets. http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2008/08/some-information-on-apis-removed-in.html http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2008/08/some-informat...

- stcredzero 18y agoSomeone could write an App that pretends to be an old Hayes modem.
