    I played with the G2 today

    I was at my local Tmobile store in Chicago and I got to play with the G2 today. It is very light compared to the G1 since no keyboard.

    How does anyone know what's in the updates?????

    I am not talking about us crazies but if I did not tell my wife about the updates how would she know the touchscreen will be there plus host of other improvements. I would think it would be cool to have a email or text message to go to the tmobile site to read about it with instructions.

    what is your favorite application so far and why???

    So far AnyCut is my favorite. I made short cuts to people I call frequently and can have one button press and the call is made. I also just downloaded a GPS toggle that seems useful instead of going through the layers to turn that sucker on and off. Larry
