I can't believe it! I wasted $35 on a Sprint exchange fee to switch from the HTC Arrive with Windows Phone 7 to the Samsung Epic 4G with Android!!!

I could have saved the $35 if I had just purchased the Samsung Epic 4G in the first place! THIS PHONE IS AWESOME!!!! The flexibility of the OS is so refreshing compared to the Windows iPhone.

It has been less than 24 hours and I am already set up with exchange, e-mails, text, network, music, movies, everything and I have never used an Android device before!

Microsoft could learn a few things from Google's Android system....

Wirelessly posted (Htc Arrive: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows Phone OS 7.0; Trident/3.1; IEMobile/7.0; HTC; T7575))

Yeah Android is pretty kewl, I use the Evo for a few months and enjoyed it. Over 5 years of development they better have their stuff together.lol

The $35 is not worth the effort to talk to support. Plus, it clearly stated that I might have to pay the $35 restocking fee if I activated the phone but returned it within 30 days of activation.

I read your other post and was thinking that you would LOVE android as I was in a very similar situation to you coming from windows.

Glad you found android,
Force

Definitely love android. This post was more joking about the "negative" of having this phone! lol

The Epic4G is far better than the TouchPro2 running windows mobile that I came from. I too can't believe how well everything "just works" on this phone and I'm running it stock!

I agree, with winmo you had no choice but to unlock and put a custom rom just to get the phone to work right. With android, rooting and custom roms can only enhance what is already a good phone experience.

lol..yeah I know was just giving ya an option...personally I dont like talking to support either..so I just send an email and hope they just do it (which usually works)

In worst cases I just use online chat..and do my own thing while i alt tab back and forth...I hate phone support cause they keep forwarding you back and forth endlessly sigh...
