I was going to get this phone but went for the Motorola Atrix instead. So far I'm pretty impressed. I have setup the media dock and have the external keyboard and mouse but doubt I'll bother with the laptop dock though

Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
I preferred version 1! -

I have one due to arrive today.
Can you explain about the memory please as I have ordered a 16Gb MicroSD card to go in it. Is the memory slot already occupied?
Edit. My wife and I spent a large amount of time last night fiddling with our new phones, getting a USB connection is a nightmare (CDC Serial driver? Anyone?), Kies is quite clever but not intuitive, no addresses in the contacts, not sure if I am missing something. Like the unit but so far not really enjoying it. Early days I know.
As OP said the memory is configured peculiarly, System, USB and SD sections.
Edit 2 Addresses are only shown if an address has been entered against a contact.
Edit 3 Its growing on me, as find I find ways to do the tasks I want to.
Anyone else got one recently?
I hadn't had any problems with the drivers, but you need to install the KIES application first to install the drivers. From what I can gather from the memory, it is separated into 2 parts. 1 for the internal memory to install the applications, and the other is for storage. The SDHC slot is free to add more memory in, but I think you have figured that one out. :-)If your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here.Comment

Originally posted by SimonMac View PostI am looking at the Atrix, just gonna hold off until after the WWDC to see if the iPhone 5 is anything special or not.
I'm now considering one of these Samsung Galaxy S2's, but am worried that it will be physically 'huge'.
There are also rumours that a new 'mini' version of the S2 is about to be released, so I don't really know whether to wait and see, or just take the plunge. My contract period has now lapsed, so I'm effectively giving free money to Vodafone.
Are those with the S2 generally happy with their purchases?Comment

I do not have a Galaxy S2, I have a Galaxy S that I have had about 1 year. It is excellent but I do find that every release of the Android OS introduces an annoying bug after fixing the bugs in the previous release.Public Service Posting by the BBC - Bloggs Bulls**t Corp.

Originally posted by DaveB View PostProbably not, Q1 next year most likely. If we see anything phone related this year it will be 'iPhone 4S'. Whatever it is, bank on it being announced as the "one more thing" in SJ's keynote at WWDC.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment
