I think we actually do have one lol. And I never though I would see this day!!! I need to pull up a bunch of quotes when I was first looking to buy my G1 from all the Apple and BB humpers trashing android. I will maintain what I have said since my first impression, IT IS THE FUTURE lol. But to be absolutely unbiased, the market could really use some higher quality productivity apps, maybe not the best business device as of yet. ---

lol if they had this in July when I tried to go Blackberry I would probably still be a VZW customer. Unless this thing winds up with a host of quality issues too. But it’s Motorola. Their cell phone quality is top notch. :uhh: ---
