T-Mobile G1 Google Android

The T-Mobile G1 Google Android (aka HTC Dream) it out today!

OS provided: Android; Installed RAM: 192 MB; Processor: QUALCOMM 528 MHzMSM7201A;

So, as exciting as the fact that this phone is powered by Google, I think I may wait out for the second generation prior to going out to purchase the phone.

Here's why:

1. (Listed as the first merely because it's the most obvious)- it doesn't look nearly as impressive as you would think considering it's being backed by a company that is The juggernaut in today's society.
2. The phone is not compatitble with Microsoft Exchange.. How can a smartphone exist without Microsoft Exchange support? They are losing the fundamental target clientele that smartphone companies market specifically for.
3. No stereo Bluetooh.
4. No headphone jack

With all the competition out there - why come out with a product that doesn't even meet the minimum qualifications (essentially the basic neccessities)? I hope the second generation phone is more appealing - the Android has the potential to be great.
