Samsung I9000 Galaxy S

[badkuk]

Has anyone seen an unlocked version on sale locally? i'm getting quite curious about this whole Android thing B)

There are a few cheaper alternatives like the I5700 and I5530, pero parang bitin(no multitouch, <1ghz processor)...

Wala pa unlocked version. Next year pa. Globe extended the exclusivity deal.

I had mine unlocked 2 weekends ago in Greenhills. They finally have the unlock!!!!

Mahal lang.... I paid 2k to unlock my Galaxy S 9000 (from Globe)

This is a great phone at half the price of an iPhone 4 !!!!!!! I love it. If I want to play iPhone games, i just use my iPad

I'm liking Androids toys... some of this stuff you can't get on the iPhone yet.

Only problem with the Galaxy is the battery life... when I'm using 3G and the maps app, I'm lucky to get a full day from the charge (I go around a lot for inspections, and I was playing with the maps thingie for fun).

Not really a fan of big phones but I got intrigued by the Android thing when my wife got an SE X10.

Good thing they came out with a X10 mini pro. I still have the same Android functionality in a small package but with a whole QWERTY keyboard, not the one on-screen.

The Samsung looks great and its one hot Android phone.

There is an alternative to the maps app, Navidroyd. It will work without the 3g connection and only use the gps hardware of the Galaxy S. Flashing it to a different firmware would be better, the one globe provided has some services running in the background

OMG 2k for the unlock

I think there will be a froyo update for this phone sometime in q4. Will just wait for it. I have opera browser and poker installed. Will try the stuff you guys mentioned. Really love it for the screen and it's web browsing prowess.

O/t but my main phone is still the nokia e90. Can't live without a keypad for texting.

Froyo update is coming this month(Sept.) there is already a leaked beta from samsung. :D
