Engadget now available for Pre and Pixi: the first webOS app of 2010 (and 1000th in the Catalog)! -- Engadget - http://www.engadget.com/2010...
Zachary TG liked this
"That's right folks. Hot on the heels of our iPhone app release (which has since skyrocketed up the App Store charts to #1 in News), the webOS version has officially landed. You'll see that the experience is shockingly, wonderfully similar to the iPhone / iPod touch version, but of course there are a couple of webOS flourishes to be found. You can download the application right from your Pre or Pixi by simply popping open the App Catalog and, you know... downloading the thing. This is the 1000th application in the Catalog -- a piece of info we feel pretty psyched about. We've got even more on the way (like BlackBerry and Android versions), so keep it tuned here, but for now... webOS fans, go get your fix!"

I love my HTC Magic. Except the lack of Android 1.6 or 2.0. Next stop, Nexus One.
- Zachary TG
Zachary TG: You can run Android 1.6 on the HTC Magic with the CyanogenMod (http://www.cyanogenmod.com/). It's not an official release, but my experience with it is great.
- Nikola
Honestly, I thought I'd be bored of my G1 by now, but that is not the case. The aftermarket ROM's and hacks have made owning the G1 a satisfying experience despite it's limitations.
- Adrian
The Google apps are very good. I wish it handled some things like the Pre like flipping back and forth between open apps. I miss the Pre's integrated sms/mms and IM messenger.
- Rodfather
I have the HTC Hero and I must say that I like the Android keyboard much better than the iPhone's. I don't have an iphone, but I own the iPod Touch and my understanding is the UI is the same - what I like in particular about Android's keyboard is the hold-longer for 'shifted' keys - which is especially useful when you type lots of smileys.
- See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
Rod, how do you flip between open apps on the Pre? I'd like the home button to instantly show the open apps list when pressed and Home should always be on the list. Long press to go straight to home maybe. Jeesh... Windows mobile allowed you to define button actions... what up Android? Oh! also, the pull down notification blinds should have the running apps as a row of icons at top.
- Adrian
Android isn't ready for me yet, was playing with an n97 but that wasn't ready either. I'm waiting half a year to a year before I replace the phone I'm using now. Yes, the slack behaviour of other manufacturers mean I have the Idogandbone ;-)
- Richard A.
There's the gesture area below the screen. Swiping up pulls up the main screen where you can flip between them. Or swipe the apps up to close. It's handy for going back and forth to copy/paste text. With Android, it's not as intuitive. Like you can't flip between two open websites easily.
- Rodfather
The 2 open websites thing is true, but actually in Android 2.* holding down the home button brings up a list of currently open and recently used apps, which you can switch to by touching them
- LANjackal
It doesn't feel like real multitasking. You're not exactly sure the app you ran a few minutes ago is still in memory. With the cards in the Pre, you know they are still running and can jump right in again. I try to let the memory manager handle everything which is fine and works well, but it's just not very intuitive.
- Rodfather
I disagree. From my observation Android doesn't kill apps unless the devs specify that the app dies when the user switches away from it (which is vanishingly rare). This means that unless you manually killed the app, anything that pops up on a long press of the home button IS actually STILL running
- LANjackal
from IM
Yes but once you start running a bunch of other apps, other apps don't show up anymore when you hold down the home button. You're not quite sure if you can easily switch back to it because it's all automatic to what shows up on that list of 6.
- Rodfather
Some of the task managers on the market allow you to see more than the last 6 apps. I haven't played with them much though. This aspect of Android needs some work.
- Adrian
I don't remember honestly, but it seems the task management app should change the way the home button itself functions for it to be a meaningful change. I'll look into them again, this has been bugging me.
- Adrian
I remember playing with an app that set the camera button to popup the default task switcher. It still seemed a little slow to pop up for my liking .. and the camera button no longer automatically brings up the camera.

- Benjamin Golub
Pure pleather-like goodness: http://www.amazon.com/Amazon-.... The case has a clever little hook mechanism that makes it easy to pop the Kindle in and out, but you can definitely use the Kindle with the case on. Feels and looks more like a book with the case on, plus it protects the screen. They say it is real leather, which is a shame, as it feels like pleather and frankly I'd rather it was fake.

- Michael R. Bernstein
@Michael - I had never heard of it. But I'll admit that, off all the things I wished my Kindle could do, fold in half was not one of them. And this may sound like heresy, but I'm not sure the high-level OS stack is the limiting factor in of ebook readers. Give me more surface area (Kindle DX size), a thinner bezel, higher resolution and maybe color, ditch the keyboard (okay, so maybe an touchscreen IME would help), a brushed aluminum body, and keep the thickness and weight constant, and you have an upgrade.

That's great! Now I'll just wait till they have it in the Netherlands as well - or move to the states, whichever comes first ;)

@James I've no idea about how many of FriendFeed users are from Netherlands or other European countries. I think Russia and UK are the at the 1st and 2nd place about FriendFeed usage. Do you have any idea?

"Step aside, Android 2.0 -- Android 2.0.1 has arrived. Verizon is rolling out its first update to the Motorola Droid phone this week, and many users are starting to receive the package today. Android 2.0.1 is a relatively minor update, but it brings a handful of performance and aesthetical changes that pack some extra punch into the Droid experience."

interesting... very happy with my android now!! :D
- See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
Which one do you have?
- Adrian
I just bought the HTC Hero - I'm on Sprint. At first I didn't like it that much because it seems slow (i still don't know why but I think it had to do with me putting it on wifi and doing background data sync). Anyway, I'm using the mobile network now and it's all good. I also own the ipod touch and liked it - but now that i own both platforms I can definitely see the pros and cons on each of them.
- See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
e.g. there are some nice features on the touchscreen keyboard on the Android that's missing on the iphone / ipod touch (I have the latest equivalent to 3GS - 64GB edition) - but the minor interactions like application pop to view, etc, 'feels' better on the ipod touch. Also I don't like the way the icon / wallpaper (again UI stuff) as much on the android but those I guess I can try to tweak over time
- See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
But one thing super sweet is that I have like 5000 contacts on my Gmail, and when I bought my phone - tada my entire list is on the phone - all the more reason to put everything on it - the contacts app on my android has built-in integration to link facebook + flickr accounts and automatically pull people's photos from them. A lot of these open + portable feature makes it much more desirable than being on a closed and locked platform like the iphone
- See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
I'm still G1 bound on T-Mobile until next Oct. The Google Phone will be an unlocked GSM phone if the rumors are to be believed (and they are pretty ubiquitous by now) so depending on how much it will cost, I may spring for it if it pans out. It seems to have all the specs and features I've been waiting for... namely a 1Ghz Snapdragon CPU, 3.7" OLED screen and [hopefully] a good camera with HD video capability. Android is quickly evolving...
- Adrian
But one thing I would definitely say is that if I use the Android at any places populated with 'shallow' non-geeks, people with iphones no doubt pulls out theirs then give me a high-brow to 'dismiss' me which is annoying at times but ah well
- See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
Yes the CPU definitely sounds like. I would definitely recommend getting a fast CPU - as it matters. I tested out the Motorola droid at a store and it feels slow.
- See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
Droid has the same CPU as Palm Pre and iPhone 3GS, however Android still has some issues with sluggishness. Droid will probably be able to run glass smooth after a couple of updates or a hacked ROM.
- Adrian
I use Gmail for work myself, so I very much appreciated the G1's tacit synchronicity from day 1 as well.
- Adrian
G1 here too. Looking forward for an upgrade to a Snapdragon or better.

Looks pretty good .. but thinner than iPhone ? That can mean only one thing - no physical keyboard. Not my cup of tea.
- Andrew Perry
Good comment on MacRumors by @saturniphone too: "In the end it's a phone. It is not your identity. I have requirements and desires for what I would like a phone to do to enhance my life and if the gPhone meets more of them than the iPhone, I'm in. You are not your mobile phone, people."

JooJoo will have a 12.1-inch capacitive touchscreen, 4 GB solid state drive, an accelerometer that will allow it to switch between landscape and portrait modes, Wi-Fi connectivity and a battery life of up to five hours. It will run a custom-designed operating system that will allow the machine to boot in nine seconds and access the internet near-instantaneously. JooJoo has a capacitive touchscreen, which means it is about as responsive as an iPhone touchscreen and as much of a delight to use. There’s also an LCD screen that supports high-definition content. Overall, it measures about 13.3-inches deep, but has a slimmer profile than Apple’s Macbook Air. JooJoo runs a custom operating system built by Fusion Garage and boots in just under nine seconds directly to a homepage screen. It’s fast and takes the user directly to services that they may use. The homepage screen is divided vertically into three sections: Be connected, Be informed, and More apps. Under the ‘Be connected’ tab, there...

Well the N900 ain't no iPhone. It's not even a Droid. Nice screen and camera but awkward interface and poor integration w/ the Google.

It's a MID with a GSM radio.
- Gideon Guillen
No, it is actually a Linux computer. Think of it as a laptop with a small formfactor. Don't insult it by comparing it to a *phone*.
- Zap Andersson
I still want to try one. The fact it is restricted to T-Mobile only in US is what makes it a deal breaker for me.
- Corey Marthaller
Surely you can buy the N900 unlocked?
- Zap Andersson
You can buy it unlocked, which is what Leo did, but the 3G GSM frequencies it uses are T-Mobile only in the US from what I understand.
- Corey Marthaller
Well, I believe it'll work on the AT&T 2G network, so it's not "restricted" to T-Mobile, per se.
- Ken Sheppardson
And heck, Verizon would have you believe only about 1% of the country gets AT&T 3G anyway, so no big loss, right? :-)
- Ken Sheppardson
Leo, I would be happy to take it off your hands for a week so I can do a review.
- Aaron Newcomb
Thank someone it's not an iPhone! Don't need apps to do everything, a lot can be done natively. Apps will come, sure, but don't actually *need* them. The interface is no more awkward than the iPhone when it first came out. Same with integration and function. But coming out of the gate, N900 is a lot more functional than iPhone first was!

The new JooJoo is dead on arrival. $499 price is too high. Leaving the drama between it and @arrington aside, that alone will make this fail

Just a little more patience for the Apple iTablet/iPad (iWhatever) ... sure, price tag will be $699 - 849 but you will get what you pay for and it will blow all other tablets away immediately. Don´t cry Arrington.
