My Phone

There are many devices on which Android runs.  My first Android device was the buggy Archos 5 IT. It ran Android 1.6, had a 4.7 inch screen, and  a resistive, if beautiful screen.  It was a great device for running videos, but being stuck at 1.6 and not have access to the real market without using the easily accessible workaround.  When replacing my phone, I decided to go for another cheap one.

The Behold 2 was cheap for a reason. It was also stuck at 1.6 and had a 3.2 inch screen and a barely 600 mhz processor. It's been abandoned by all developers now despite being less than 2 years old.  Still, my sister is enjoying it. :-)

I currently have access to 2 devices. My phone is an HD2 with the Frankinstine 2.2 ROM. It's fast, beautiful, and an awesome phone.   The other device is somewhat less impressive.  My brother has a Gentouch78 with either 2.1 or 2.2. It cannot access the Market and has the manufacturer market installed. It's much harder to work with then the Archos 5 was, but it's not my device so I don't worry too much about it. It's main purpose now is that of an e-reader.
