Every time Google releases an update to Android, people are going to pull that attitude that "WTF THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN RELEASE." Yeah? Well how about if they didn't release the G1 yet because obviously the features are still in development? It would be delayed years because there are always improvements and Android will consistently be updated. Google released a finished product, and now they are adding on to it. Maybe you should complain to HTC for making a phone that doesn't need to have a touch screen keyboard and releasing it before the software supported one? I just don't get it. As for battery life, that is the ONE improvement I want to see on my G1. There are improved batteries out there, but they make your phone larger (replacement cover). There are a lot of budding battery techs out there, so I personally am hoping one of the new and super cool battery technologies they're developing for portable devices comes to the G1. The one thing I like about the G1 battery is that it charges fast. Any piece of tech you buy is going to have something missing.

I'll be the first one to say that this thing needs better battery life. I have to charge it usually around twice a day. That being said, if it <em>did</em> have good-to-great battery life, this thing would be an absolute beast. It's interesting, actually, because I owned the iPhone for over a year, and it had great battery life. Few would argue that the iPhone is a stunningly awesome phone. But I don't personally game on my phone, I want to be able to gets loads and loads of information, communication, etc...out of my device. And the G1 is the best phone hands down for that reason. I feel much more connected. Everybody, everybody talks about their problems with the iPhone, G1, etc... and how these features should have been included in the initial release. However, people need to keep in mind that if they <em>were</em> included, it would have taken that much more time to release, thus possibly missing a small window of large sales and risking some higher tech coming out. The G1 needs improvement, as does every other phone, and more and more phones are suited to specific people. This phone, for me, is perfect. The iPhone could be perfect for someone else.

It seems to me that tmobile needs to do something about it and I don't mean more rumors. Whats the point in having all these great feature it you can't use them for more that a couple of hours before having to charge the phone. I thought I was buying a MOBILE phone.

I enjoy my G1 more and more each day. We have to give the G1 credit. It's a very stable and reliable device which is not too shabby for a 1.0 release.

They are making us wait for the update, and making us want it even more, and making us talk hype into their delayed product. Marketing team = good job for you consumer relations = eh I can’t wait for this just as much as any of you, but anyone getting that weird thinkage, why are we so excited for something that they MADE us wait for, that should have come with the phone in the first place, the things that Palm has built into their first 1.0 of webOS, hm?

Also, before you start drawing conclusions and making wrong inferences, you should check out http://source.android.com/roadmap/cupcake - maybe that might "wake you up" :) All the best, Spencer Carmex – If you read the last few lines, I was basically saying “It’s coming soon-ish, but don’t expect it tomorrow”.

According to the articles you linked cupcake is still far from being usable. Also in their list of updates, I don't see anything about new bluetooth profiles or video recording. I wish all the speculation would just stop. Somebody wake me up when there's an actual update for the phone. I think this post is a bit misleading.
