Oliver, I was reporting what was appearing on the web and if T-Mobile is delivering pre-orders after the phone is available in stores then they do need to improve.

Whaa.. weren't you just a few hours ago suggesting that T-Mob needs to bone up on pre-ordering techniques?

Don't know if you have 3G coverage in Houston, but I would be interested in "real world" performance versus the iPhone.

I noticed CNet did a quick real world side-by-side browser test in their SF office and the G1 punked the iPhone pretty bad (by a solid 8 seconds). This is shocking to me. They tried to blame it on iPhone user saturation in the SF area compared to the new T-mobile network with fewer users.

I call fake. I'm holding up a piece of paper the same way you're doing.

Just kidding. Enjoy it! We need the unboxing now!

Oh, I almost forgot your iPhone, another finger magnet. You probably need some more fingers or learn to alternate between both hands. I wonder if all this finger stroking will create another medical condition like carpal tunnel syndrome ?

Very Nice. Between the G1 touchscreen and that awesome MacBook trackpad try not to wear your FINGERS out ! Maybe you can put some kind of wax on your fingertips so your skin doesn't rub off. hee hee

I look very much forward to your review! Esp. since I am trying to decide between the G1 and iPhone.

Jeesh, James.

I’m so envious of your tech toy selection.

What happens when you hook the G1 upto a PC? Mass storage or mass windows confusion?
