Google Multitouch and touchscreens really are all the rage these days, especially in mobile devices. Apple's iPhone set the bar, and now it's up to the rest to either catch up to Apple, or outdo them. Google is trying just that with its Android mobile phone operating system, and it has demoed the capabilities of its new mobile phone operating system.

The Problem Here

Is that coverage for AT&T phones in my area is atrocious. That's why I haven't bought an iPhone.

I would certainly be considering a new "smartphone" (although, I really don't like that catch-all term), as long as my local provider with the best coverage could be easily tacked onto the system.

My contract is coming up soon with my current phone, which is rapidly declining in usability, so I am definitely going to be in the market for something grand within the next few months.

I was on the fence about geting an iPhone, given that I've only owned basic call & text cellphones. Turns out that my mobile carrier, Globe, has first dibs in the Philippines (may or may not be exclusive), almost definitely the 3G version.
