How many of you are WebOS transplants?

I am currently using the Samsung galaxy s2 of att. I came from a Verizon palm pre plus. Transferred to att so I can use a pre3. I got the Samsung galaxy s2 just to try it out and try out android in general.

I like how the hardware feels. There are Apps that you need to install for it to proximate WebOS behaviour.

What I miss in WebOS is the inductive charging. The simplicity of the cards (I know there is an app for that but I would rather long press home button). The elegant notifocations (I have installed the executive assistant and it works for me) .

The app store is overwhelming. There is an app for everything.

What I love about this version of Samsung android is the kies air app. Lets you do wireless phone management and file transfers using your computer's browser. No need for software installation. I love the voice to text commands.

Hey guys,
Try this for fun. Charge up your pre connect it to WIFI and try and use it. Only after 4 weeks with the Galaxy or even 2 weeks. You will laugh and ask yourself how did I deal with this cheap crappy screen. Still in overload mode tho. Too many apps and too many options to open one thing. Like for instance I have google talk or Vlingo when I long press. Navigation has like 3 options. But to be honest I rather have too many options than none at all. If HP magically makes a 5/5 phone and it is on sprint then maybe I might consider switching back. Other than that I am already excited for the Galaxy 3 which will be slithly thinner with a 4.7 inch screen and AMOLED HD with a 10 megapixel camera and quad core. Samsung to me is the new king of the hill phone wize.

Check out the Palm User's Guide to Android.

It will walk you through the transition.

Also check out the Getting Started and in particular the section on Applications. That lists a 150 or so of our favorite apps.

Android apps are like an endless playland.
