    Who would buy this Turd? Android 1.6, 3mp Camera, no video capabilities? And you can guarantee that it will probably never see the light of Eclair or FroYo in it’s day. The only, and I mean ONLY advantage to this phone over ANYTHING else, is if you travel alot and need GPS when you don’t have a data connection.

    I’ve got an old G1 sitting in my closet right now. I’d take that over this thing any day.

    Garminfone = fail.

      you still have all the video capabilities, i have no idea why there is a no there.
      playing online streaming video, watching video from your sd card and record video are all provided. plus it’s got great offline gps navigation so it’s much better than your old g1.
