What phone is that?

Samsung Captivate. So far it kicks the crap out of the iPhone experience, and I was an Apple phone fanboi for years.

Right now I'm looking at either that exact phone or the iphone 4. I'm going to the store tomorrow to try them both out... I've had a 2g iphone since the early days, but it's on its last legs.. I love it, but more and more its getting on my nerves. slow, and apple's bullshit is annoying me. I think the iphone4 looks cooler.. but I don't give a shit about that, and the captivate certainly isn't bad looking. And its not like I don't love google and samsung just as much as my iphone (I'm reading this on a samsung monitor in a google chrome browser )! Think it might be time for a change.

Just wait until you update your contacts in gmail and see your phone contacts update along with it without having to plug in and sync. That right there liked any buyer remorse I had.

Ditched the iPhone 3G for an Android phone. Couldn't be happier thus far. [Blocked Image: http://mobile.desinformado.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/samsung-captivate-smartphone.jpg]

x2. Although the GPS completely not working is a bit of a bitch. I trust samsung will fix this.

You have chosen...wisely.

The GPS thing sounds like a software issue according to the internet. Guess time will tell.

twiz · August 20, 2010 at 2:20 PM

Yeah, rumors are saying firmware/software fix in the next month or so. Even without GPS, the tower triangulation speed is a billion times faster than the iphone, so I'm already partially pleased.

I just have to say, swype by itself was worth the switch. Swype, combined with the phone being faster in general, and it having a spellcheck dictionary that isn't completely retarded, has increased my typing speed tenfold... and I've only been using swype for a couple hours. Being able to type "now" without the phone suggesting "Noe" is glorious. I have no idea who this Noe person is, but I must have rained ten-thousand curses upon her during my time with the iPhone. And despite never once accepting its Noe "correction", it still offered it up, every damn time.

As I never really paid much attention to my google contacts before, when it synced... my god. I must have a thousand people in my contacts. I have a lot of pruning to do. I see a roll-o-dex widget in my future.
