Is it a good device? Any hands-on experience? I don't want the specs, I want your opinion. Thanks
I'll start, but should warn you that I have no experience.

I remember that there were some strange restarting bugs with this handset, that you should ensure have been resolved before you make a purchase.

The flaw of not including a microSD port is a big design flaw. While 16GB is ample storage, it's always nice to know that you can have more, or move data around. In the designers defense, though, I typically just buy a card and leave it jammed in the slot anyway. I would go for the 32GB model (if such a model exists).

Other than that, I think this is hands down the most beautiful handset on the market. The SAMOLED screen will delight your eyeballs, and the (very) subtle curve adds a touch of sophistication.

With the Google experience, it means the latest updates without the wait. This is a very compelling feature.

Were I buying a phone, it would likely be at the top of my list if I didn't know the Galaxy S2 was around the corner -- it looks to be a beast of a device!
