Operating Systems Linux Android Mini Review: Samsung Galaxy S (Android 2.1) v. Nokia E63 Post 302455840 by Scott on Wednesday 22nd of September 2010 01:32:32 PM

Hi.

I know nothing about Android, and have no real interest in it (as I voted in a poll elsewhere), but I did have a Samsung Omnia a couple years back and the GPS (and GSM, etc.) on that too was completely hopeless. My office is right next to Swisscom, which has a ruddy great mast on its roof, and still I got only one bar!

Perhaps it's just a Samsung-ism?

Forget all this fangled stuff. Bring back the Siemans C35. The best phone I ever had. It had WAP and everything (is that still going?)
