1191505 2011-04-02 22:11:00 Problem is that they are Android 2.1 not 2.2 or later.. paulw (1826)
1191506 2011-04-02 22:15:00 I was thinking that aswell i thought they would be 2.2 at least jwin (16186)

1191510 2011-04-03 04:39:00 No worse than Vodafone branding of devices.

The major drawback to this device (apart from the fact that the OS is outdated - but that could probably be remedied) is the onboard memory: only 512MB.

That's enough for the Android OS, plus Adobe Flash, Google Maps, Gmail, Swype and less than a handful of other apps. Installing Google Earth on top of those 4 mentioned would just about suck up any free space left.

Then you have to start looking for applications that will run off the SD card. Not an easy task.
