I like HTC phones Butbthis none looks like a middle of the road phone, where is the touch diamond or HD??
I am a T mobile cust. and have been for quits some time – not alwasy happy with them but I am month to month now and also tarvel alot to Asia so i change sim cards alot – usually use my Taiwan mobile account I will check out the phone but thinking of waiting for a better quality HTC – just sold my IPhone that I never opened

And if you are current T-Mobile customer, you’re looking at paying $299, not $179. No thanks. I’ll wait.

You can get pretty much everything (internet + SMS + nav + TV) on Sprint for $25 or $30. T-Mobile completely missed the boat and is acting too big for its breeches. Its the smallest carrier with a pathetic 3G footprint, but its behaving like VZW or AT&T.

I don’t really see anything special about this device. My feeling is neither like nor dislike. It gives me simply no interest, which is I think worse than dislike from marketing standpoint.
Other than the fact that it’s a Google product and it has new OS, what’s so exciting? I may have different opinion when more phones and 3rd party software are out, but right now, iPhone and WM phones appear better choices in many aspects for most of consumers.

There are some issues being brought up about this handset over on Gizmodo (http://gizmodo.com/5053747/android-and-t+mobile-g1s-five-most-obnoxious-flaws).

No BT stereo, special USB-earbud adapter, and only one Google account can be linked.

It’s not a bad price, but I’m not where T-Mo has 3G yet, and they had issues providing decent call service to me in the past.

And this handset doesn’t strike me as being all that shiny. It’s like a typical mid-grade HTC handset, so it’ll work great. But it’s nothing special.

JK, that’s the same error i’ve been getting for the last few hours. Actually ran down to the T-Mobile store and the guy couldn’t pull up info either. So much for trying to get “work” done on a lunch break.

Looks like upgrading your handset is unavailable right now. Must be overwhelmed with orders.

Once the Sprint version comes out, I am jumping in. My 6800 does the job, but I use Google Apps and this would make it life easier. I hear early 2009 Sprint release date.

I did order one about 3 hours ago, but I’m an existing customer. When I logged in to the mytmobile page, I was able to get to it immediately.

It’s supposed to arrive October 22, so we’ll see. I’m pretty google-centric, so it’s a good look for me.

I put in my pre-order as soon as my.t-mobile.com would allow me too. I hope to receive the phone on or before Oct. 22, which is the “estimated” delivery date. I’m really looking forward to using this phone though. I was/am/will be a little weary about the sidekick-like design of the phone, but I always welcome full qwerty. I guess my blackberry curve will find a nice home in a box somewhere if this pans out.

I am seriously thinking of getting this phone. I enjoy tmobile with their fav 5 plans. And adding low cost internet would be a joy. But from previous experience I woulnd’t use the internet much.
