Wow, how did I miss this? I guess because I wasn't expecting it?
 
== Specs ==
 
Weight: 158g
 
== Questions ==
 
Can sketch accurately on screen?
 
== Advantages ==
 
* More open source
* Java-based
* Compass
* OK Camera
* GMote - use it as a mouse/keyboard for Windows/Linux http://androidcommunity.com/forums/107205-post38.html
* Hacking - http://phandroid.com/2009/05/08/g1-specs-leak-could-mean-developer-hacking-heaven/ For example, can you currently do TV Out with your G1? Nope. But did you know that the chip in the G1 DOES allow for TV out and it simply isn’t wired? Now you do. Access to these specs will allow the hacking geniuses of the world (nods to XDA Devs) to enable things like USB-OTG, USB-HOST, TV-OUT, Bootloader Hacks and Radio Hacking.
 
== Drawbacks ==
 
* No call recorder http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2117
* Clunky hardware, "chin" interferes with keyboard
* no LED
* "Special" headphone connector
* Can't listen to wired headphones and charge at the same time
* USB host mode? http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=738
* Battery life?!??!?!!! http://gizmodo.com/5132895/seidio-2600-mah-jumbo-battery-pack-turns-your-g1-morbidly-obese
