Mainly because T-Mobile have the G1, but their not-hilariously-expensive data plans are retarded, whereas O2 said "yeah, course you can do that" to everything I couldn't do on T-Mobile.
So, what essential (and ideally free to begin - I'm aware the app store is rather addictive) apps are you running?
The best free app has to be Shazam.
If you travel a lot on the tube system in London for a very small amount 79p or something use TubeDeluxe which is really good.
My list of apps consists of:
Wordpress
AstroTilt
Bomberman
JirboMatch
Tap Tap (really good)
Monkey Ball (better now its easier)
Remote (good but missing a key feature for me)
moonlight lite
Bubblewrap
Bejeweled 2
Trism
Aurora Feint: The beginning (I liked this but now i have to create an account on their server, can't be bothered)
Spinner Free
The obligatory Facebook app
Lumen Lite
Matches
Enigmo
Tris
VNC
TouchTerm
Air Sharing
FourFree
Rolando (good but i don't play it often)
Out of all of them the one i use most is Mail and Safari to keep up with the Edugeek threads:)
The evernote app is cool - great for keeping notes, etc organised
s is Stanza for getting free ebooks.
sorry to hijack, I'm on the brink of buying a t-mobile g1: what can't you do with them?Quote:

Some Apps I've found useful are....
Ping Lite

Can you not migrate the contract to an iPhone contract? I'm sure that that is an option. IIRC it used to be. They were going on about it on their website when the new one was being released as far as i can remember.Quote:

I'm looking at an iPhone, but on PAYG. Contracts are so expensive now!
£390 for the phone on PAYG and a single £10 top-up gives 12 months free unlimited data. Not a bad deal I think. The only downside is no VVM on PAYG but I have all my VMs converted to text and email anyway.
As an existing, loyal customer I cannot:Quote:

2) Accessing Internet video is against their TOS on the G1 plan I wanted.
3) Get a good data plan. I have a 1GB cap for data - if I want a decent data plan I have to spend more/month than I want to pay.
4) Get a non "I'm bored and just want you to get off the phone" attitude from their elbonian customer support drones.
02 didn't have any of the above problems, hence T-Mobile lost a customer and 02 gained one (unless they do something stupid).
re the iPhone - I've asked them to deliver it on Saturday - if it turns up mid-week I'll spend all my time playing with it. :)
Spent the weekend playing with the iPhone and (bearing in mind it's my first real smartphone - previously a W810i, which is smart-ish) I like it a lot.
Just need to get Tomboy syncing with it now.
you just joined the dark side...
and not even the real dark side... the other dark side has cookies.
but no
The ones i use are Facebook and iiPaint the most
my contacts, ipod, sms and some games I downloaded like iSniper :D
Could do with getting Metal Gear Solid 4 for £3.50 or there abouts
