Here’s a video overview of the T-Mobile G2’s WiFi calling and tethering features. WiFi calling is fantastic for areas with poor signal (basements, remote towns), as well as international traveling. Tethering is tethering…but unlike its competitors, T-Mobile isn’t charging (yet) for USB or WiFi hotspot functionality!
Anyway, please, please, please watch the video when you have a chance. At the very least, you can stare at my pal Nutchy some more. She’s a beautiful girl.
(And yes, I didn’t sleep last night because WiFi calling made me so excited that I wanted to make a video about it.)
That is exciting a lot of my time is spent stuck on the E sometimes I have 3G but my cubicle is weird like that.
It's pretty excellent so far. I really want to see how it works internationally. Perhaps I shall go to Japan or something for the sake of testing.
Btw, have you read any MyTouch 4G reviews? It's pretty much what I expected — the Android customizations tarnish an otherwise great package.
No I haven't read anything worthy yet, just a bunch of stuff we already know.
Just looking at screenshots, the phone would piss me off. I'd love to have a front-facing camera, but I can wait until better apps are out (Skype). The Genius Button is dumber than Apple's Genius Bar. The whole skin is as if T-Mobile felt the need to make Android for Dummies.
I've been playing with my friends MyTouch slide to get a feel for Espresso UI and I dont really like it, it feels very teenager-ish, but that could also be the way he set up his widgets.
If anyone is having problems with USB tethering, these drivers appear to solve everything. I can't say for sure though since I never had an issue.
