You can change the language during setup. On my first boot, it display foreign language too but I have no problem changing to English (US). It can also display Chinese, Japanese and Korean fonts. Note that Voice, Dial Search and Voice-to-Text messaging work primarily in English.

been playing with the pulsar for a while it seem like not really stable. the touch screen will not work sometime, and occasionally reboot happen. and it seem not really smoother then 2.0.1.

anyway, is there any sign of overclocking for it? as we know milestone cant work as droid which can be clock at very high for faster peformance.

We were given indications that it'll be end of this month but nothing solid so far.

Hmm strange... Seems very stable for me. I have been using it for 3 days straight without any rebooting. Everything just works pretty good except for the Flan gallery. It did quit a few times but it quickly restores itself. Music cover flow works beautifully except for a little skipping at times, not as bad as reported over forums.

If you have performance issues, I would recommend you to wipe and clean data. It is there in the instructions. Also don't use live wallpaper. It'll speed up the ROM for sure. Although I really like the interactive wallpaper but I don't like my battery going down like no tomorrow.

Simple. Openness :P. You want to customized your phone with all the custom ROM development scenes. You want access to the file system so you can do simple things like transferring a video for immediate viewing instead of syncing via iTunes. You can download an album from the internet. Tag it with album art, dump into phone and voila... you have added a new collection to your library. Simple.

When I pass on my iPhone and got the Milestone... I was a bit reluctant. I didn't want to leave my favorite applications. To be honest, iPhone has one of the best collection of applications and games. Going to Android is like going back in time when iPhone was still in its early stage. Simple apps, simple games and really craptastic graphics hehehehe...

But I have faith in Android. Just today, Google released a new NDK that enables OpenGL ES 2.0. Just what developers need to get things really going!
Yeah I read about them too. Here are the ones I am aware of:

1. Weak radio antenna (causing poor 3G reception performance specially in weak areas)
2. Inaccurate multi-touch
3. Color accuracy of the OLED (related to shades/tones)

What else?

1. Glass is more fragile compare to other phones
2. Glass will crack from within, although external glass is still perfectly solid. (http://crave.cnet.co.uk/mobiles/0,39029453,49305156,00.htm?s_cid=96)
3. nexus one (most of HTC phone) is not "multi-touch", is "dual-touch" as the hardware only supports two touch point

Mine is Pulsar 1.2.1. Third party software recommendation:

Astro File Manager
Barcode Scanner
Bloo (alternative FB app)
Facebook (official)
Compass
Goggles
Netcounter
Nimbuzz (very good multi IM chat app)
Photoshop Mobile
SeePU (check on CPU/RAM usage)
SMS PopUp

1. I tend to think glass is more rigid but that depends on the type of fall. Still glass is pretty scratch resistant especially when treated.
3. Thanks for clearing that up. I think dual touch is sufficient since you don't need more than 2 fingers on a small screen (even though it is 3.7"). But the articles I have read point to Nexus One's screen easily being easily confused when 2 points are touched. Gonna have to read it again.

Yeah, which is why getting HK AP from Terry seems like a good idea.

I think I read it from Google's support forum on the multi-touch issue, they got the information from the hardware spec, you can go read if you want to :p

Your milestone is HK AP set? Where did you buy it from?

To update there are two ways. The OTA way is to go to Settings>About Phone>System Updates.

Help! I did this with WiFi and it said "optional update available." Upon DL, it stopped at 51% and now doesn't move nor can it be cleared from Notifications. blink.gif

111

Later: Ooops. Shouldn't've panicked. Powered off and took a walk. Now it's back on, finishing DL, picture of unboxing something into a Milestone, restarting itself sloowwwly.... HEY HEY, now 2.0.1 !!! rclxms.gif
