G1 Google Phone Users?
 

I'm planning to change my phone carrier from Sprint PCS to T-Mobile and get the G1 Google phone.

Just like to know if anyone from this board have this G1 phone. Anything you like or dislike about the phone features?

I do have a few questions.

Are you happy w/ the 3G data speeds when surfing online?
Does the G1 phone crash or freeze often?


Aside from the G1 phone, how do you like T-Mobile's reception?
Do you get reception at your house, at the mall, school, work, etc...

I think I'm getting a pretty good deal. $179 for the phone w/ free activation, and paying $59.99 for 2 lines + $50 for unlimited data for both lines and then I get 15% off from my company.

I pay $60 alone right now w/ Sprint PCS for crappy EVDO speeds which is like dial up.

Any feedback from G1 owners and T-Mobile subscribers would be appreciated. Thanks.

I got my G1 for $79! Contact the number below and I am sure they can work out a deal for you too! I love it! All the apps are free unlike the Iphone. Great browsing speed for 3G. Only complaint is the battery only lasts one day, must be recharged at night.

BEST ONE INC 408-261-8229

try charge the battery and remove it for few seconds, some of new phone's battery needs to be reset once a while, like both my blackberry's battery.

Is that deal only for new contract before I call?


I plan on getting a G1 in a few weeks, time to upgrade my shadow.

Yes that is for a new 2 year contract, they also cancelled my old contract that I still had a year left without having to pay the early cancellation fee.

Really I still have about a year left also. Wonder if they have the white one.

If there someone i need to talk to or anything?

Should be able to talk to anyone there and they have all the colors.

Not sure if they fixed it yet but if you type reboot the phone reboots.

Fred, I did have T-Mobile about 5 years ago and I didn't mind it too much. I really liked the customer service.
