Exactly, WebOS doesn't compare to Android cus WebOs is much better but the Android is so different can't even compare them. It's on many different handsets with different manufacturers. It's no where as slick as WebOS but it has tons of apps and tons of customization.]]>Nov 29th 2009 9:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/
Webos is a more elegant system. It is easy to use and with Palm's support of homebrew very customizable as well. Of course the app store is still in beta and there are only 400 or so apps but there is at least one app for everything that would want it to do. iphone may have 100,000 apps but how many are clones of each other ? I had 11 pages of software and most were games.

I have 60 apps on my PRE (3 games).]]>Nov 29th 2009 11:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/The problem is the Pre was behind the 8 ball on features & options when it was released. If they had shipped a really complete 1.0 product there wouldn't be a need for quick updates but this is a device that only got the ability to change your notification sound less than what? A month ago? That's a major problem. WebOS definitely implements multitasking better than Android. Notifications are probably about equal. Android has its own "Synergy" feature for contacts. Android has better third party app support, widgets, lots of options for different hardware types, and a ton more control over settings. I imagine Google will address Android's multi-tasking UI issues pretty quickly. It's the only major problem with Android at this point compared to its competition. (arguably it works about the same as WM in this respect, so only Palm has a better implementation IMO) ]]>Nov 29th 2009 11:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/
That's exactly what I have done.
Never regretted one little tiny bit.]]>Dec 17th 2009 10:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 5:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 5:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 8:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 8:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 5:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 5:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 5:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 5:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 7:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 5:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 5:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 5:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 5:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 7:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 9:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 9:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Dec 1st 2009 4:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/It was only a .1 upgrade in the version number, because it was mostly an update towards the SDK in which they added a bunch of API's, which in turn, adds more functionality to 3rd party apps...which in turn(and I'm sorry if this is starting to sound repetitive), adds a ton more functionality to the phone. Honestly I would argue that with the number of changes made in 1.6, it should be considered 2nd in biggest feature change since Android 1.0(1st being 1.5[Cupcake]). ]]>Dec 18th 2009 3:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 5:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 5:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 5:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 5:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/Nov 29th 2009 6:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/

Ain't that the freakin' truth. I'm with Telus right now and I'm craving the Hero badly, but their plans START at $50/month and I pay about $25/month now for a really good plan. I simply can't justify the 100% increase in cost.]]>Nov 29th 2009 11:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/29/htc-hero-caught-running-android-2-1/
