Just wondering, what are your favourite Android phones? That run GSM though. I'm leaning towards a Motorola XT720.

None.

To be honest though, I haven't even looked.

2.16GHz C2D MacBook w/ 2GB RAM & 120GB HD. HTC Droid Incredible.
Favorite GSM would be the Motorola Milestone.

The HTC Incredible is a very good CDMA phone though!

I'm not a fan of anything by Google.
But the HTC Incredible is the best of the Android phones I guess. I'd never use it though as I don't trust my information in anything even partially made by Google. But if I had to recommend someone a smartphone, the incredible name would come up alongside the iphone.

Haha I can see why I got the first two replies. I had an iPhone but just wanted to try something else for a change. And thanks for the input! I've heard some good things about the Incredible myself but cannot use a CDMA phone.

A friend at work has an AT&T GSM Captivate and he seems to really enjoy it. Other than that model, I'm not sure of what GSM Androids are available (in the USA) that are worth a dang.

Don't know that I'll ever go Android, but if I were looking, it would be towards the Epic or Evo.

Edit: oops, sorry these aren't gsm phones.

I use a Nexus One so my vote for this phone, really glad of my choice :D

No kidding! Were a Nexus One with 3G available on Verizon or even Sprint in the USA, I'd be trading in my DX on it momentarily. Unfortunately, the places I frequesnt in Minnesota have lousy T-Mobile and AT&T service.

+1 on the Nexus One still the best Android, I currently use the EVO (Sprint)
Although If another carrier got the iPhone I would probably switch to that.
