I see. Yeah I guess I asked this cause my friend was rubbing his Samsung Galaxy s in my face. I'm like woopeedoo you got a better phone than me. They still do the same shit mostly.
yes, you are right!
O1 it's really good for the money you spend.
the difference between the android phones it's mostly the hardware (processor, ram and display which in my opinion it's the big difference)
the only thing with O1 is that you cant run new HD games like the one gameloft launched, but i see on the net that some games run... in rest O1 it's up there fighting with the big boys
i know i love mine 
and it's very hard with not it because it's at intensive care (service) now.yahoo with voice and video it's great, games are good some a little laggy but ok (you can overclock the cpu if rooted and solved this problem)...
overall it's a good smartphone. my next phone will be a 4" or more for hd games
the big - is the flash player.. hope 2.3 brings us flash :-ss

it is a great phone. at 1st i was very disappointed by its battery back up, but now i used to it. If cell manufacturer ever made a battery which lasts in a week on android platform than AND. will be sole champion.

The community of this phone is very active on xda and new custom roms, kernels pop out each day. So if you're into modifying, this one's too great for it's price. Otherwise it is still good

I see only to major problems with this phone:
- bad sound quality, you will hear all the time hiss/static noise on the background.
- dust under the screen. from what I read (I CAN'T CONFIRM IT) only the version with the sdcard next to the camera lens has this dust problem, so get the version with the sdcard at the left bottom. I have the one with the sdcard near the camera lens and after 6 weeks I have dust under the screen, I used pocket case for the phone from the moment I bought it and took care but I still got dust under the screen.
- IMO! My phone was kinda slow with Android 2.2.2 because of the screen bug. But now Android 2.3 Gingerbread is available. Furthermore you can install custom ROMs/kernels to make your phone even faster. It is best android phone in his price range.
You can check xda forum for more informations about this phone.

I recently bought an Optimus one (White). It looks a 1000 times better than the blck one with glossy back cover but some of the drawbacks of the optimus one are:1.) Poor camera picture quality than all nokia 2mp cameras.
2.) Very low speaker sound output.
3.) Laggy interface.
4.) Low in-call volume.
Advantages:
1.) Xcellent screen.
2.) Good build quality.
3.) Good battery back up.
