Review of T-Mobile G1

G1's shortcoming:

  • need to mount SD-card to access its content when connecting via USB. This should be done automatically like iPhone
  • no built-in file manager/browser even though it comes with a SD-card
  • why does the "red" end call buttom lock the phone? that's so unintuitive as I am used to use it to "cancel" things.
  • the screen lock timeout setting is hidden under settings -> Sound & Display
  • why isn't there a Google Reader app?
  • no auto-complete when I search apps in Android Market
  • store all downloaded apps in tiny 74MB internal storage. No way to store them in a SD card(unless you root your phone). A game app can demand 10+ MB storage!
