Hmm. I am not an Android fan, because I don't want google to know everything about me. I know that all I do is saved somewhere no-matter what brand, OS or operator I use, but to give it to a company. . . No-way.
Here in Holland lots of stores have customer-cards to get discount, this way they track your buying habit. I use these cards to get that discount but share it with other people to confuse the company's. I like my privacy.
On the other hand £99 is tempting to check out the Android-operating-system.

Its just too much like a Satio in the way it looks for my liking.
I tried one in the O2 shop near me and it was nice but the screen was rather small. Or at least seemed to be.
Surely if you use Android you dont have to use it for too much of Google's services ? i dont think id ever link it to my Gmail account or store my contacts online, or use Google's Calendar.

Actually the LG Optimus having had one before is a super fast phone. Not just in operation but internet too. I would not call 3 inch screen small.

Not small, but lacking, with a lesser resolution than the San Francisco, .5" smaller diagonally, and with resistive touch rather than capacitive.
Would go for the Orange any day over it. It's already been rooted apparently, have yet to research it further though.  |

The resistive screen on the LG was one of the more responsive resistive type & the phone was very fast no lag anywhere. Screen is the same as the X8 res on the LG & it did look good. I find the bigger & higher res screens with even a 1 gig processor I still find you still get lag. I found it on the X10,Galaxy i9000 but zero lag on the 600mhz lower res screens of the LG Optimus & X10 Mini.

I meant the screen is small compared to the rest of the phones body. Most modern phones have large screens that cover most of the front of the phone. Not so with the Optimus. The screen only covers about 50-60% of the front of the phone.

Well you know Esato is very quiet these days compared to years ago so i think its ok to talk abit if the topic deviates slightly.
You also seem very touchy (imo) !

No not touchy just everything goes off topic too much & it gets messy plus we are already discussing Symbian elsewhere at the moment

Everybody is discussing (slagging off) Symbian elsewhere in many threads at the moment. Its rather annoying when the bigger minority think they know better, but really cannot force their negative opinions onto you when you and only you know what you like, prefer or need.
We need to keep Esato alive ! so who do you think will win this years X-factor ? btw, i just saw a X-factor pizza in Asda, how does that work !?!
