Galaxy S in the house

I bought three apps in less than 8 hours.

SPB TV for 10$ from Handango [ I have a 25$ gift certificate ]

SBSH PhoneWeaver for 5$

Pure Calendar Widget for 2EURO from the Android Market

Quickoffice Connect and Touiteur Premium purchases in the next couple days as well.

I’ve installed dozens of free apps but more on those in the future.

Pictures of the new device here.

I bought a Galaxy S

I’ve spent a few minutes with Android via the SDK and despite the funny UI and giant buttons I want to give it a shot.

The Streak and HTC Desire look awesome but I am tired of waiting for a flagship device with 3G support in North America

Nokia has abandoned Eseries and premium devices so it’s time I explore other options. It would have been nice to wait for the N8 but 256meg of RAM in 2010 is a joke.

Anyway!

Expect a flurry of screenshots and videos in late July.

BTW - App Inventor looks awesome. That’s what pushed me over the edge. I’m looking forward to exploring Accessibility issues and I believe this tool will help a non-coder like myself have some idea of the possibilities.

I’ve almost made a decision !!

But not yet. Here more options for a primary mobile. I’ll keep the E72 as a secondary device.

1) Samsung Galaxy S - front face camera == T-Mobile Vibrant which ships in 3 weeks for 199$

2)Dell Streak might ship in a month for 500$

3) HTC Desire with Euro 3G can be had NOW for 500$ to 550$

All of this is complicated by Bing cashback ending the end of July.

My first choice is the Dell at 500$ but with no proof of 2.2 or ship date I’m leaning toward the Vibrant at 199$… but 30$ / month for 3G is a bit painful.

Any ideas?
