One thing that makes it different from others is the fact you can download and install lots of apps from the market. There are some apps that are free and some aren't. I have just put the free ones on my phone, as they are just as good as the paid ones. This is my 2nd Android phone, and I will never use any other OS. I can do so much with my phone, including watching videos and playing flash games, as it is Android 2.2 which is the first one to support flash. I am really having fund with my phone, as I can also video chat with my daughter whoo lives in a different state than I do, and I won't see her at all. Anyway, my phone is the mytouch 4G from T-Mobile. Take care, and have a very good day.

My phone has Android 2.2, which means it has adobe flash on it as I can view flash content on my phone. the only problem I have been having with it, is the battery life, as it really sucks. I went to the T-Mobile store in the mall where I bought it and the one guy took the battery out and put it back in, and he said that it should do the trick, but if id doesn't to let them know, and they will have to order me a new battery. He also put a task killer on my phone, and I do believe it has helped, sas I have had my phone on since 7am and it is now after 4pm here, and hardly any of the battery has been used, so I am hoping that when I turn it back on tomorrow, that it hasn't drained my battery, as it has been doing the last few mornings. As far as putting Android on my computer, I have never thought about doing that as I like my computer the way it is right now, as I am using Windows 7. I really do enjoy my Android phone, as I can video chat with my daughter who lives in Missouri and I live in Oregon. I will say the Galaxy S phones are nice as that was my last phone before the one I have now. I kept the phone, as I just can't part with it. It never got updated so I just changed from Verizon back to T-Mobile, and not going back either.
