    I should have waited and got an SGS2. The Galaxy S i9000 is still a good phone, though, and I'm still loving it. But one can wish. The iPhone is somewhere down on my list, though, below these phones.
    Yes, i phone is there in my wishlist too. I love it for the design and weighted feel in the hand. Its small and cute to look at. But when it comes to functionality and multi tasking, you know who is the king.

    BTW, having custom roms in the SGS makes it really fast. New SGS1 is available for 21 k which is a steal for the AMOLED screen and Humming bird procy when compared to i9003 which is around 20 k.

      Might experiment with Darky's ROMs in the future, but am running on stock Gingerbread 2.3.4 right now. Samsung have a good record with their updates in the recent past unlike LG, and Motorola being one of the worst, which just released Android 2.2 for their Defy.

        Still running on stock firmware? You are missing a LOT my friend. Stock firmware is slow and laggy and without Voodoo ur missing the Real sound of Galaxy S.

        Get the latest Darky rom here
        [GUIDE] Final v10.1 - Official DarkyROM - Gingerbread (JVH) - Noob-Friendly | DarkyROM

        I am running the same one. Its rock solid and smooth as butter + the interface is exactly like SGS2 .

          I choose my Galaxy S over Iphone 4 and i dnt regrect even a bit. I am already running Darkys rom with S2 interface and its damn fast .
          Can u tell what good can it be if I run my SGS2 on custom-built rom like one u r using.. How will it increase my phone's performance...

            My long time friend cum room mate bought an i phone 4 inspite of me telling him to get SGS2. Now every day i can see him sitting in front of the computer having his i phone 4 connected to the computer throught i tunes. We put silione cover to protect the phone, apple advises it to have good reception. God, i hate restrictions.

              It will change the phones performance by a huge margin. Samsung's stock firmware is crappy.

              U can search XDA Developers, U will sure find some great firmwares for ur Galaxy S2. Samsung has sent over a free SGS2 to CyanogenMod team for hacking. You can expect some awesome software upgrades very soon .

                Yes, very soon from CM7. Hope it has hardware acceleration as the stock Rom.

                      check the above link... i have selected COD as i wanted to check the card first hand by system too... many cases of fraud cards going around.they will say its a 32gb but in reality it will be like 2 gb or something and some loop program will allow you to fully copy the whole data but in reality overwrites the initail 2gb data which was 1st transferred to the card.
                      Just let me know once you received it.

                          I need a sandisc class 4 32 GB. Let me know if you come across the same in similar price range. Also can you pls post the random and sequential read and write times for the card you have got ? if that is adequate, then i might get the same card.

                          @ALL - After a lot of fight, i have succesfully hanged my SGS2 a couple of times Phew,( Sweat~:~sweat~tired as hell)
