First G1 review goes live
ComputerWorld has done a very detailed review of the T-Mobile G1, which apparently refuses to start up without a valid Google Account.
Their final verdict also is pretty positive:
T-Mobile’s Android-based G1 isn’t especially sexy or eye-catching, but it does a lot of things right. It’s a strong first-generation Android device, but the absence of a standard headphone jack, a video camera, and Google Docs (and support for Word and Excel) at launch are notable detractions. Still, I would recommend this versatile phone over countless other smart-phones; Android’s intuitive ease-of-use raises this phone above most Windows Mobile- and BlackBerry-based devices.
Pre-sales numbers claimed to be too high
A source close to Engadget‘s Chris Ziegler has informed him that the purported pre-sales figures were wrong by an order of magnitude.
As he does not have any actual figures, I personally don’t know whom to believe – the device probably sells more than just good…
