Just forwarded the link to the local iPhone fanboy, who is out at lunch right
now. Should be interesting when he returns!

I know of several people who went for the big Samsung phones and have regretted
it.

From their comments
They:-
Don't fit into pockets especially shirt ones
Are really awkward to use if you have small hands
A number of application seem to all want access to 'Contacts' and then they
'phone home'

I have huge 'plates of meat' for hands and even the largest Samsung is a PITA
(Arm) to use.
Anyway these devices are irrelevant to me as I've junked my HTC Smartphone and
gone back to a simple Nokia.

What is of more concern to me is 'SmartPhone Addiction'. Just take a few minutes
to do a bit of people watching and see how (mainly women) can't stop checking
their phone every minute or so. IMHO, these people need help.

Ubuntu & 'apt-get' are not the answer to Life, The Universe & Everything which
is of course, "42" or is it 1.618?

Why I'm not ready to ditch my iPod Touch

Just plug it in and it works with any app that uses a sound input.
Yes there are a couple of Android apps that might work
with some USB peripherals, -if- your handset vendor
hasn't removed usb audio drivers from the kernel.

Yes, I've got a very nice low-end Android smartphone,
and with the iPod touch I get quite a bit of redundancy
at a total cost of less than an iPhone. I'm just getting
tired of carrying too many bits and charger cables.

Oh, and that first screen shot looks like someone stood on it,
with a 5 inch heel ...
