The actual amount avaible for you to install apps on the I9000 Galaxy S is just 1.8GB, another 200MB seems to be used by the OS. And the other 6GB will be free for you to store music,  video and other stuff. From the review I read, Desire only have 100+ MB for apps installation. If you can wait for Froyo, then should be OK since it allows apps to be install on the memory card, but still need to wait for long time.

The Desire initial promise 720p video recording and Divx support also not yet been realised. And all this features, is already available for Galaxy S, but the price will be higher, and not sure will local telcos will carry them or not.

i'm currently tethering with my office pc using my desire. not bad. simple to use. now i'm going to cancel my maxis broadband

I bought it today, btw i got the free car charger! 

curios abt another question

it worth to buy ap set now or wait for official launch on retail set?

but i loaded an empty backup.. as if it never backs up my stuffs... ive factory resetted after about 5days of usage.. thats y im asking is there a way to force a backup since it didnt automatically back up on mine..

found a 3rd party app named My Backup Pro.. havent tried it though... i factory resetted mine cuz im running out of space to install game and etc.. after reset i got about 140mb of space.. now installed about 4 HD games from gameloft and still have about 50mb left which is quite neat indeed..

guys, too bad for iphone fans (including me). when i was still thingking of buying desire or iphone, now i have decided who is the winner. I just read the preview about iphone 4 (it's not iphone 4g btw). honestly, it's not what i was expected for new generation of iphone. i gotta say that iphone 4 sucks for this time (better get desire).

negatives of iphone 4:
- same size of screen (3.5" only)
- still uses TFT screen (when all the new smarthphones have used amoled or even super amoled)
- secondary camera can only be used between iphone over wifi (cant use 3g) -- it's totally useless then
- uses microSIM (smaller size of SIM Card that we are using now) -- it makes us difficult if we want to use another phone using the same SIM Card
- no stereo for video recording
- no radio

i think that's all for now about the negatives of new iphone 4. we will know more when it has been released and reviewed. no offense, but i guess desire is still much better than iphone 4.

how about positives?

- still uses TFT screen (when all the new smarthphones have used amoled or even super amoled)

This is actually a plus , Iphone 4 using IPS screen , which is better than Amoled . IPS as in the tech used in high end LCD . 960x640 reso too
- secondary camera catfn only be used between iphone over wifi (cant use 3g) -- it's totally useless then

Only for 2010 , they are sorting out the 3G with mobile carriers .

- no stereo for video recording

But its in 720p , name me how much smartphone can record on stereo lol .
Oh , and who cares about radio . 10 Hours of wifi means constant web radio streaming also no problem . Not to say that I'm leaning to Iphone 4 , but the negatives point you said clearly isnt valid .

Rooted Maxis Desire reporting in! Count me in .

Yesterday when I just got is super smooth... Theres something bugging me.. Even i've uninstalled all apps, if I did used the camera earlier, it lags... After a reboot, if I don't use the camera, it works perfectly fine

You must have been reading the info from some person who can't even get their facts right or you must have missed it.
LED flash comes with the iPhone 4. And its 4... not 4G. Theres a drastic difference between the 2 terms.

Totally disagree here. I think Iphone UI is easier to navigate. Inter-related programs are linked together, like Contacts, Call Logs, Keypad etc. Desire one is a big question mark.

btw guys, if i buy this phone under maxis contract, can i buy it using supplementary line? since there's no indication whether family plus 30 subline is applicable or not there. just those main line plans

1. of coz cannot..if u r in 3g area then u get 3g or 3.5g.else u get E..or u just turn off 3g and use 2g for all the time..and i don think it will drain ur battery a lot...jsut a normal changing which every mobile phone also experience it
