    4.65in screen?! WTF?

    Personally I think 4.3in is perfect size for a screen... 4.5 if you are pushing it. I mean its gotta fit comfortably in a pocket.

      No tethering surcharge for Android in the UK, but you do (usually) have to pay one for iPhone.

        You can tether it fine. You'll have to pay extra for a wifi hotspot, alternatively you could download the easy tether app and use a USB cable.
        Couple questions:

        T-Mobile advertises itself as "America's largest 4G network", how does that mesh with "isn't 4G by any stretch"?

        Is tethering OS dependent? How well does it work with XP?

          Another question (and no, the one above hasn't "expired", I still want to know):

          Costco will be providing the identical offer next week, only it is now a myTouch4G and the Galaxy offer expires this Sunday.

          Which is the superior deal?

          There are also deals for the Verizon Droid 3, and the AT&T Blackberry Torch, but I don't think I want those.

            Companies list themselves as "4G" for speeds that are only marginally better than 3G. In the US, no one matches Verizon's LTE (though AT&T is apparently making their own LTE network, even as they claim that HSUPA+ is 4G).

            Which Galaxy at Costco?

                Um, I'd lean towards the S, but that's just a gut feeling - I know like nothing about the MYTouch.

                  Verizon is way faster than anyone else though the problem is once enough people get on to their network's 4G it will end up being as slow as the others but for now it's great.

                    Wait for the Galaxy S II. It will be out shortly and it's an Iphone 4S beater.

                      There is a thread around here talking about the Iphone 4S which has a link which directly compares the 4S to three other leading phones including the HTC. The HTC is ok but not the best. I'd go with Samsung but if you're an Apple guy then the 4S. The Samsung beats all of the competition in every category except screen resolution but since the android phones have larger screens the slight decrease in resolution doesn't matter.

                        The Nexus Prime phone coming out Oct 27th has a higher resolution than the iPhone 4/4S.

                          Is it the 27th now? I thought I'd read it was next week.
