Re: Google Android

I'm seeing lots of biased opinions. Acknowledge both devices and both operating systems, stop refuting one or the other.

This is Windows VS Linux all over again.

@vegetaleb, mate i'm pretty sure it's exactly wat u said, in order to really know a gadget, you have to leave it with you for atleast a week, and use it daily.
Thanx mate for the info bout the APNs guess it'll have to be a fixed line then. I currently have an iPhone3G (now my girlfriend uses it) and a HTC Dream, waiting for the next Android Superphone 1Ghz+ with physical keyboard, check out this link mate;

@rahmu, mate seriously the group hug thing was a joke! come on pple, we should chill and relax! i've got nothing but love to my fellow leb geeks, you have no idea how excited i am to have found this site and talking technology with fellow lebs, every year i go lebanon, i get puzzled faces when i talk about gadgets. Plus the word Attack gives me creeps!

@xterm, you forgot Apple! Windows Vs Linux Vs Mac OS X ;)

Don't worry, you'll find the forum to be generally chill, even though we have our moments of (mighty) anger. Anyway, enjoy your stay amongst us ;)

Re: Google Android

Hey Jalal, I'm thinking about getting the Nexus One just because of the FroYo update.
Do you know any shops that sell it for a relatively cheap price? $600-$800?

Re: Google Android

Is it just me or doesn't it bother people that 600$ is considered 'cheap' for a phone?

Last time I checked, 600$ is twice the minimum wage in Lebanon, right?

Re: Google Android

Well I'm used to high priced phones, so $600 is considered cheap for a good smartphone here in Lebanon.

Re: Google Android

Compared to a 900$ iphone...yes a 600$ Nexus One is very acceptable(but not cheap).
To update your rooted N1 with froyo pay a visit to xda forums.
If you want a good price on N1 in Beirut buy it from Amhaz 01/555455, he's the wholesaler of ''te7rib'' cellulars in Lebanon

Anyway no one could make wap work with N1 despite what alfa said?

Re: Google Android

Hey @vegetaleb where is Amhaz located? and how much does the N1 cost??

and just subscribe to gprs, it will work fine when you enter the APN and stuff.

I called today, but no one replied. Called 4-5 times. =/
