Na, just messing around, no new phones anytime soon for me, so ya, about 6 months or so...lol. I think I'm hooked on the Android platform though. There have already been a few moments where I remember thinking "yup, there's no going back on this one". I rooted it yesterday and that allowed me to go into a Linux shell and delete the annoying rogers shortcuts, also enabled all the apps (including paid apps) that Rogers blocked from the android market. I celebrated today by buying Greed from Android Market (it's an awesome RSS reader and how I will be reading these posts from now on).

So ya, no new phone for me for a while. The HTC modded Android OS going into the new HTC Hero is tempting but not till they put it into a phone with a physical keyboard. It will probably be released as a hacked Rom for the Rogers Dream soon enough, the Magic has a compatible Rom already so it's just a matter of time. Flashing custom Roms is probably the main reason that I rooted it, need a custom Rom to start storing apps on the SD card, looking forward to that too.

See what you did, made me go all phone geek on this biatch...lol.

Take a look at the new Android OS on the Hero, basically just an HTC skin but wow, well done HTC...

Laterz all,
