Anyone ever have any experience with one of these phones? they are supposed to be all the rage.

I have a T-Mobile myTouch 3G.... I like the Android format, but the phone itself crashes on me. It also take from 3 to 5 minutes to boot up. The apps are really great though. I think on a different phone, it would be great.

Yeah I still have T-mobile. I have heard some things like that about the Android. I think I may have to pass.

I had a phone that crashed on me (non-smart phone) and I needed to get a phone, and quick. Unfortunately, it was 3 days past my 1-year warranty... so I opted for an andriod. I'm actually waiting (patiently, that is... for now) for T-mobile to start selling the iPhones. They are in testing now, but until T-mobile is happy with it, they are focusing on the Andriod phones. I give it another year before the demand for the iPhone for T-mobile is too great for the company to pass it up.

On the other hand, if AT&T's takes over of T-mobile (yes, it's a take-over/buyout, NOT a "merger" - T-mobile does not want AT&T to merge with them) that will work for me for getting an iPhone. I'm just praying that T-mobile will be running the customer service end of things, not AT&T.

Have had the iPhone 4 since it came out. Flawless.

So, I did some research. It seems that one of the reasons that T-mobile doesn't have the iphone yet is because technology isn't compatible. The type of system that T-mobile runs is a different system that AT&T and Verizon has. I'm wondering if this is also one of the reasons that T-mobile doesn't want to "merge" (a-hem, or rather, be bought out by) with AT&T. I didn't quite understand all of the tech info on it, but basically it was summed up that a T-mobile phone won't work on a Verizon system.

Either way... I did happen to see a newer andriod phone. The phone i have no runs a bit slow, but I found out that it's because my processor is slow. I can't wait until I get an upgrade, and I'll be happy with another andriod!!! (Unless the buy-out happens, then i'll go with the iphone.)

It isn't that T-Mobile doesn't want to merge as much as the FCC doesn't want AT&T to become a pseudo-monopoly.

As far as the differences in carriers: AT&T/T-Mobile use GSM and Sprint/VZW use CDMA, they are two different kinds of signalling protocols using different RF spectrums.

As far as phones are concerned, all Androids are pretty good, and they are basically all the same. If there were only one Android on the market, Apple would eat it's lunch. But because there are a few different kinds (Beats, etc) Apple has a little competition.

Love my IPhone, but if I had a Droid I would get the Razer.

You can't lose either way, they are all pretty good.

Well, I got a text from T mobile today saying the merge wasn't going to happen

Ooooo.... yeah!!!

Hmmm... I didn't get one. I'm a little sad now

I think I'll get over it. LOL
