A “Real Life” Guide to Android Phones

April 3, 2010 |  by George Pace  |  Articles, Telephones  |  13 Comments  | 

As more peo­ple I know pur­chase Android based phones—I have been hear­ing a vari­ety of ques­tions, com­plaints, and opin­ions about the phone. As I have had my Motorola Android for about 4+ months now, I have had enough expe­ri­ence that I wanted to put together this blog entry for the ben­e­fit of others.

For now, lets call this blog entry “ver­sion 1.0″ and I will update it going for­ward as I learn some­thing new and/or get user feed­back. And in an inter­est­ing twist of fate, I just received my Android 2.1 update — but I didn’t see any­thing that impacted the con­tent I cur­rently have.

As email is such a per­va­sive tech­nol­ogy, you might won­der why I spent time on this rel­a­tively sim­ple topic. Through an inter­est­ing series of dis­cus­sions with clients/friends over the past few months (espe­cially the past 2 weeks) — I found myself dis­cussing the impact of the fol­low­ing situations:

Getting files to the Android

Unfor­tu­nately it’s been a while since my last entry — I have been dis­tracted a bit with orga­niz­ing what I would like to accom­plish in 2010 (some of which you will be hear­ing about shortly). In the mean­time, I will resume shar­ing my expe­ri­ences with my Android (all pos­i­tive!) over the past few weeks. Also, for full dis­clo­sure, I am a Win­dows user so the instruc­tions below are Win­dows centric.

Motorola Dis­cus­sion Group

I just started using this site, but it allows you to see all of the discussions/questions opened by what I assume to be DROID owners/users. I recently started a dis­cus­sion on the battery/process issues I have been inves­ti­gat­ing, and I hope the result­ing con­ver­sa­tion will be lively (and informative).
