If in the beauty of the UI, its in eye of the beholder. I personally like it just fine. Simple and nice.

Just because the UI is not to your liking (not to say it is bad), doesn't mean its not up to its mark. I personally do not like Symbian's UI but then again, Symbian is the major OS in phones.

Having a UI you don't like is a drawback yes, but only to you. Not Droid as a whole smile.gif

I have to agree with chenster though, I have seen some IPhone 3GS vs HTC Hero reviews, and all the good things are all custom made by HTC aka Sense UI. The music player, the social networking widgets, the custom keyboard...

Can't think of a good thing that's really just "android".

Haha true, true. Not saying its wrong, but to me, having an 'ugly' UI doesn't really degrade Droid as much.

Though having a custom UI does makes it a little more interesting tongue.gif

Android is suppose to be open source which mean its free. For each unit shipped, the manufacturer don't have to pay Google anything. why in the world Android phone are still so expensive?

At the openhandsetalliance page, it says "... offer consumers a richer, less expensive, and better mobile experience". i wonder where did that less expensive part goes?

2999 is way too much. probably around iPhone's prices.

Android is free but hardware is not. keyboards, touch screen with multi touches, etc etc, not going to cost a little.

Cheaper Android like DEXT/CLIQ are a testament of Android phones can be cheaper but less interesting.

Until it truly becomes mainstream and a lot more competition in the market, prices will be on the higher side. Sad but facts.
