Galaxy S
"WAW" what a phone or since i am knew to the smart phones, this phone makes my old Samsung G800 look like a peasant.
What you can do with this phone well you can surf the web, get the latest news,watch film clips,navigate with it,find places with it and it will guide you there,look up what is on at your local flick ( that's with a app), find you a pub, superstore,coffee shop, i could just go on with what this phone can do.
Calling this phone a iPhone killer is a very bold statement to make that i have herd from other quarters but the statement is very close in-dead.
The only complaint i have with this phone is it power demands, with this phone i purchased the Galaxy S power pack and it needs it, with the WIFI,SAT NAV,GPS,G3,APPS,they all make a heavy demand on the battery, i always turn off what i am not using so it dos not drain the battery down.
The amount of memory that the phone has (internally) for me is adequate but the external memory well that can be expanded to 32GB witch for anybody is i think a lot.
The app store (Samsung market) is just grate if you can not find a application that is of some use to you for this phone then you are just asking for to much,most of them are free and some you have to pay for but those are the premium one`s and its the apps that bring the smart phone to life, just look and pic what you like and there you go you have just customised the phone exactly to your ow en needs.
It is just a very good tool.

Samsung i9000 Galaxy S
THis is a really fast Android smartphone that also connects seamlessly to Audi/VW/Skoda Premier car phone system (other Androids do not at the time of writing).
Really great screen, very light but well made, most functions very easy to use. The 4 inch screen makes typing a doddle. I prefer this to the i-phone. Good video, email, apps.
The only negative for me is the slightly 'lightweight' look. I have had a few problems with duplicating diary entries when syncing with outlook. All that is overidden by the sheer ability of this phone, however.
