    Meet me a Max station or Pioneer Courthouse Square, pick out someone whose phone you like and I'll get it for you for $200.

    You might even get a couple of days free service out of it.

    Android 2.2 is downloadable but you need to have root on your phone.

    Keep in mind the hardware in the G1 is close to two years old. Just because you can download it doesn't mean it will run properly.

    Exactly! Why not have a contract? You get a phone for cheap.

    How am I tied down? What makes you want to jump from provider to provider? Am I missing something? I have been with Tmobile for probably 10 years and have had no issues.

    That's what I'm talking about. I just got the brand new slide running 2.2 for $179.00. Are you planning on jumping from Tmobile for a reason?
