Chud, I didn't know you could say that in here - haha - so true.
I know mine will last - I had wanted this type of phone, the Epic without a keyboard - but this is sweeter - no bloatware, no Sprint, no trying to figure out how to put something on, but especially get something off.
I am running stock for the first time in years, even the Epic had to be hacked and rommed to run like it should. Mine is unlocked, rooted, and relocked - I could put 2 needs to be rooted apps on. I do not want to experiment or maintain someone's roms and quirks.
I only miss 2 things - notification light and zoom on camera. I tried the kernel to support, not as good of battery life as stock, and I have a camera, so I'm good.
I thought I wanted the Galaxy 2 coming out, yes, it will be a little bit faster, a little bit bigger, but a dual processor for me who does not game nor brag about my quadrants, is useless. If I'm going to watch tv or play games, I will use my Ipad so I don't have to use my glasses. And this phone is a perfect fit in hand, pocket.
Yes, for the first time this might last more than 2 years for me.
