She hasn't had the gps bugs or software update issues that I see with the combination of Android, Samsung, and AT&T. At least with Apple's iron handed business practices, AT&T doesn't get to screw it up too much... Can't sync the freakin phone with my PC for seamless backups, gotta go to a different mode just to sync??? GPS is buggy. Touchwiz blows. And it now appears I am going to be 2 OS releases behind on an expensive top of the line phone purchased in October. This sucks....

I love everything about my Captivate except that its support for voice commands doesn't work over Bluetooth. That shoots the "hands free" idea in the foot. AT&T's sluggishness reminds me of Microsoft's ineptness with the Windows Mobile platform - the very reason I'm using an Android device now. Come on AT&T - get your head out of your butt and give your customers what they want! You were willing to sell the Captivate at a premium price, now give us premium support for it.

As of late (with all the Android commercials) I've really been thinking about upgrading my phone and after doing alot of research on Phones none has gotten my attention like The Android 2.2 Froyo ... I gotta have it when will it be in Detroit sprint stores? I’ve been doing business with Sprint for 5 years now and I love the service!

I have a couple of other android phones from AT&T 1 of them does has the froyo update on it, but I like Captivate way better. My roommate has the Samsung Fascinate with verizon & it doesn't have the froyo yet. I have given up on Samsung for an update, I'm rooting my phone & getting froyo that way.

Hardware wise they are good phones, but the completely un-professional way they have handled the firmware 2.1 to 2.2 Froyo upgrade should server a "case study" in how to screw up and turn off your customers. You have to wonder if anyone is even in charge at Samsung. Dropped deadlines, broken promises, support staff who are absolutely clueless, and an incomplete OS (just try to copy/paste out of an email) is maddening. Now add ATT to the mix and you get a royal SNAFU. I wonder how many of 6,000,000 users would gladly dump them if they weren't tied to a two year contract.
