Its just a matter of keeping the honest people honest. Even those that know how to do it are not because they understand the importance of not disrespecting developers.

I love my G1, but I do have some issues with it, mainly the low internal memory. But if another version of the G1 was, let's say re-released with more internal memory, I would buy it. That's the only reason I want to get another android handset now. I text, and find the on-screen keyboard handy, but not practical. So I think they should re-release it with some tweaks. reward those folks who put android on the map in the first place. cause when I got my G1, I was supposed to ugrade and pay $179. but the store I went to was slow in getting a shipment so I went and paid full price for mine. I'm a loyal android fan and plan on any other phone I may get being android. I personally agree with others here. I love my G1, but I do have some issues with it, mainly the low internal memory.

One solution would be to encrypt the app (or part of it) on the SD card and only store the (randomly generated) decryption key in the internal memory. Of course this would have performance penalties. “the security issues that prevent apps from running off the SD Card”

Rooted or not it's a sweet little baby. I haven't rooted mine yet and will be fine without an update. But I know the minute there is keyboard based, Android fone with solid hardware (Qualcom Snapdragon 1 GHZ) G1 will be that cute little baby we had. The new Xperia Racheal is the closes there is to Android fone heaven. In the mean time..... VIVA LA G1 You know what people G1 kicks ass. Rooted or not it’s a sweet little baby.

And not even a year later Tell us the phone is not strong enough to get new updates!!!!! WHAT are they on! dope or dog food? I mean come on people, this sh*t is not fare. Anyway I'm rooted and happy now Thanks 1 click root. Still piss off for the non>rooted folks. I just think its bulls#*t 2 bring out a phone that a lot of f$$kin people surported.

When someone comes out with an Android based phone with a hard keyboard I will look at it seriously. I do too much texting and emailing for business to give up my qwerty. Virtual keyboards are ok for leisurely texting/emailing but are a real pain if you have a lot of typing to do. I dont want your crappy "touch screen only" phones people. Get with it and make another qwerty Android phone HTC (the next version of the G1)! I for one have yet to see a phone that would want instead of my G1.

I've been rooted since I got mine and have been developing themes for it ever since. Never ran into any problems I couldn't fix myself. This whole donut issue will either force those who are too afraid to root into buying new phones (if they are the type who must have an up to date device like me) or root. I fit in both categories. Hardware wise, the G1 just isn't good enough for me. I try to explain to people all the time the benefits of rooting but they are too afraid to void the warentee that they will probably never need.
