I only game on my xbox360... In fact, I'm rather angry I can't delete the stock games on my Nokia to reclaim some space...

I'd like to be able to have some sort of office apps on a mobile device, a small browser that works and can parse javascript, and an ssh application (that would hopefully support ssh keys)

my nexus one has an ssh client that supports keys. As did my iphone, but not as nicely. iphone had only safari available. nexus one has chrome, which si webkit, same as safari. both do javascript. not sure on flash. there are other browsers available for nexus one. I think i heard that opera is. with the iphone you have only one email client, for all of your accounts. on the nexus one you have a client for your gmail account, and then a wide range of clients available for other email accounts. If you have more than one mail account you're going to end up with 2 clients. kinda screwy in that aspect. The iphone comes with a fixed amount of storage. the nexus one uses an ssd card, so you can buy various sizes. it came with 4 gigs, or 6 gigs, i can't remember. you can swap out cards, of course.

Well the nexus does sound better than the iphone in those areas wink

They both have strengths and weaknesses.

The thing that iphone has going for it, well over anything nexus has, is that you can go to the apple store and see it, use it. With nexus, if you don't know someone that has one, you're S.O.L. as far as really getting your hands around it before you buy it.

If you are interested in the Nexus One then just check out the HTC Incredible or EVO. They aren't exactly the same, but the Incredible has almost all the same specs. And the EVO is probably better. I assume their sales numbers will be a lot higher than the N1 because people will be able to play with them in the store.

Having a phone that people can't experiment with prior to purchasing is a strange move.

Awesome. I got an Incredible also. I'd still like to see a mobile option for the forums, but it does a pretty good job of displaying everything on my forum. I really like how you can zoom in on a section and it will rewrap the text to fit the dimensions.

My droid is the Eris HTC you take two fingers and place them together on the screen and move them apart to blow up the screen and it auto places the text in a wrap in the desired area of the screen.

yeah, the pinch to zoom feature is nice

I just installed the latest 2.1 build on my Eris, solved most all the bugs the last build had, loving it so far
