Teflon(TM) coating is beautiful, multi-touch in the browser, flash support, 5Mp camera, what more could you ask for? Well, you could ask for a new interface that comes with hundreds of widgets, and allows you to group functions in a more useful way. View all emails, tweets, flickr photos, and such by contact - instead of hopping around to load different applications, you can view everything in one place! Absolutely brilliant! in my opinion, this phone is not a direct competitor to the iPhone. The iPhone is a much better media device, with a better experience for music, video, and games. I think Android is ahead of Apple in terms of available applications - not in the number of applications, but rather in the breadth of applications. With the iPhone 3G-S, Apple has added the hardware required for developers to provide things like augmented-reality, and genuinely useful location and direction aware applications like Google Places Directory. Does Apple need to worry about the Hero? I'm not entirely sure, but I am certain that Apple is looking. As Steve Jobs once said "Gentlemen, start your photocopiers!". Brilliant phone!
