I suppose playing funny and entertaining games like angry birds does indeed sound like a very macho thing to do.

iphone is for users who have better thgs to do in their life other than spending it customizing de fone, changing the colors, icons, etc.

Of course, you'd need all the time you can get to play angry birds and crazy cows. They are serious biz.

I got a HTC Desire, IMO it's no where near the popularity and coolness of iPhone, the battery life isn't that great too. The main reason why I went for Android because it's cheap and suitable for poor people like me

Anyway, I'm still happy with it smile.gif

Give it some time. Then the coolness factor will kick in. wink.gif

Well yeah, I never dispute about the good OS. It's the general impressions that make Apple cooler. I was making decision between iPhone 4 and HTC Desire but I was just too lazy to wait and I can save some bucks by going for Desire.

I enjoy the convenience of having the device to sync all my mails and calendar (GMail and office e-mail), RSS feeds, twitter and facebook updates, weather, chat anytime I want via GTalk or MSN Talk, and surfing the web on a 480*800 3.7" screen. But many just won't understand, because they think:
- HTC stable meh? Always hang one wor (bad experience with Diamond and WinMo I guess)
- Android can play games meh?
- Seems like Android don't have that many apps right?
- Android good meh? Still new, sure very unstable hor

But anyway, not that I care  whistling.gif The only problems I have so far are:

- Battery life could be better, hopefully a Froyo update can improve this somehow (don't tell me not to sync emails / turn off mobile data etc, because I think it defeats the purpose of the device)

- Slow updates from HTC - froyo has been there for some time but I'm still stuck with 2.1. They seem to be interested in making new devices rather than supporting existing devices. Sure we can root the device or go for custom ROM, but I still prefer official ones

Try bump charging your battery, see if that helps. Mine works so much better after I did that. I posted instructions here (just ignore the wipe battery stats part):-

Is the bump charging step to be repeated every time you want to charge, or it's a one off task?

You need to do it just once.

can we browse the website from android device with full desktop version instead of everytime trigger into mobile version of the site ...
for example ... facebook.com will lead to mobile.facebook.com or there is a setting for this?
*
If you're using the stock browser:-
1) Open your browser
2) type about:debug in the address bar and press go
3) Click the phone "menu" key
4) Choose "More" then "Setting"
5) Scroll down until you see "UAString", tap that and a pop-up will appear
6) Choose "desktop"

if jailbreak is legal then there is no reason for developers to create better apps since that all their affort will be stold by jailbreakers legally!
if im a developer, definitely i will go somewhere my contributions are appreciated.

Given the amount of advertising done by Apple, the article posted above proves that a majority of iPhone users are geeks.
