If you would like Flash (sooner than later) and are not a rooter, you may want to hold off for a few reasons. Perhaps get an Inc or another device instead that does have 2.2.
1. Please consider that with Samsung and VZW, you have a worse combination for updates than HTC and VZW
2. Rooting is the option, ATM.
That said, if Flash or 2.2 is not an issue and you do not mind Bing as your main intergrated search option (WHY?!?), the Fascinate is a nice device and audio fans will love the quality from the 3.5mm jack. Sounds as good as the N900- that is a compliment.
After watching a lot of shows from Fox, TBS, South Park, Megavideo, etc- I do not want another device unless it has Flash.
Still, if you are mainly an audio and video freak (sans Flash)- Fascinate will make you very happy and Flash should be available by the end of the year anyways.
Update:
Full (fool) disclosure: The Galaxy S sounds REALLY good for audio quality and video playback even blows my N900 away. The more I think about it, the more I appreciate I may be wrong and would rather get this device, root it and have the best of both worlds- Killer media and Flash
If this had the 16gb like the Tmo version........
