The G1 uses a 480x320 pixel, 3.2 inch touchscreen.
Negatives include bad battery life, and imho the extreme integration of Google services into the OS (but YMMV on that aspect, of course).
A couple of reviews that should make your decision easier:

IMO, the two big negatives are:
1) The battery life (get the external charger that T-Mobile sells; it's not perfect, but it does help)
2) Lack of Tethering.
There are some other small things (Google Reader doesn't allow shortcuts nor tag editing, Gmail has a few missing features, there's no SyncML client for Calendar yet, the SSH and VNC clients (3rd party) doesn't completely work together, and the IM client lacks some things).
But the two big ones are the battery and the tethering.

But i've found different specs.. one site says it has a 800x480 resolution screen, the other site says it has a 480x320 resolution screen... What is the truth now??
Also are there other reasons to prevent me to buy a G1?
Thanks!
