So,

As I said I will, I got my Galaxy S today.

Been playing with it since morning, here is some feedback :

Positive :
  1. Fast
  2. Beautiful Screen
  3. Great Touchscreen
  4. Android with plenty of apps and games
  5. There is a scripting enviorment you can install which supports python
  6. Video calls
  7. MMS
  8. WIFI Hotspot with stock 2.1 OS
  9. Battery life!!!
  10. Swype Keyboard really is amazing
  11. It charges every time I plug the cable
  12. able to stop mass storage without removing the cable
  13. HD Video Taking
  14. If reports are correct, There will be HDMI out via MicroUSB to hdmi adapter soon.
  15. At last waze.

Negative :
  1. I can already notice the LAG problem everyone is talking about, I know I can hack/fix it - but i'll wait 2 weeks for offical firmware. Then i'll re evaluate.
  2. Notifications are not cleared even though pressed, untill I click CLEAR
  3. No skype...
  4. No flash, which I only used as flashlight cause it was messing up my pics
  5. No kickstand

Now I have the N900 sitting on my desk, I would sell it but :
  1. Lets see you explain why sometimes it charges and sometimes it doesn't
  2. I got speaker problems, I need to apply physical preasure on the headset speaker for it to work at times.
  3. No apps
  4. Heavy Bulcky
  5. Screen is not responsive as much as the old iphone 2g and 3g and 3gs.
  6. No waze
  7. UI hangs sometimes when incoming call arrives for a sec or two.

Please don't consider this as whining, I have been a member + developer + wiki editor in TMO for more then 6 months - I have been trying my best to love the N900.
The phone just doesn't want me to love it, and also nokia doesn't want that.

Maybe in one year when meego comes, if it's such an overkill, i'll switch back to Nokia.

Things I will miss after iv'e completely gone Android :
  1. Apt-Get
  2. TMO
