CrackBerry Kevin on the T-Mobile G1

[dannzeman]

Oh My God, Kevin!!!!!

You hit the nail on the head with that one!!!!! I'm not too impressed with the G1 itself, but to have the Android OS on the Bold or Storm would be AWESOME!!!!!

Ah, sign me up when that baby comes out!

It also works on both T-mo and At&t 3G Networks!

Have you tried Locale? It's one of my favorite apps: I can set the G1 to automatically turn on WiFi when I get home and turn it off when I leave, I can set it to automatically silence the ringer when I'm at church, etc., all based on location.

I didn't think so. Have you tried it? AT&T's 3G network frequencies are different from T-Mobile's 3G. The G1 is tied to T-Mobile just as the iPhone is tied to AT&T (at least in the U.S.). This will probably change in the future but for now I believe you can only use the competitor's EDGE network.

It's good to see the g1 getting good reviews from all the editors. I still think the platform still needs more development but it is well on the way.

Sorry

I was just taking our dreams to a higher level;
Android OS on the Bold or Storm that works on both T-mo and At&t 3G Networks!

I wonder how hard it would be to make a phone that can use either 3g freq?

 

[berdinkerdickle]

Can we say sexy in the Android forums?

They wouldn't let me register berdinker****le, so I had to go with berd

I guess I could have registered the name; berdinkersexy

I would point you to the storm, that can work across all networks and 3g freqs.
