Glen... I was in 2 minds about buying an HTC Desire over the last few days as I sold both my iPhone 4's due to the signal being dreadful.  Can you not get an Over The Air update to Android 2.2 just now for the Nexus One?
I'd be curious whether you get 2.1 to work properly, as thats what comes on the desire just now.  I currently have an HD2 which seems to work pretty well with the Fiscon, but I'm getting bored of it... and bored of Win Mobile!

Pete,

All sorted now...the phone received a pairing request, which I accepted...then a few minutes after first vonnection, it receives a phone book download request, which I missed.
I spotted it the next time, accepted, ticked for autodownload in future and it's all working as it should.


Yes you can download Froyo (And 2.2) onto the Nexus One already, but not with Vodafone specific settings...it'll be along soon...sao instead of trying to sort it all out, I'll wait.

I'm impressed with the Nexus One though...although email isn't as good as my old Blackberry Storm - push email is really poor (read non-existant it seems) for Android phones/Hotmail.

Talking to a passenger does not require the same level of concentration and you can allow your concentration on the conversation to lapse if required.

Can you explain the difference between having a conversation via handsfree and with a person sat next to you?
Personally, I don't see one.

It also doesn't require the use of any equipment, sorry, but if you think otherwise you are more than boring, you are a danger to other road users.

So you won't change CDs, music tracks, radio channels, heater settings, turn on the wipers, open the sunroof etc?
Or smoke, as some do?
Surely that's infinately more dangerous than operating the controls of the vehicle?

One other important point, your passenger will presumably be looking out of the windscreen and be aware of road conditions, most passengers tend to reduce the level of conversation if they perceive that the driver requires full concentration

You never have kids in your car then?

I agree completely with Rick, you're all stupid.

In fact I have now found a way to completely eliminate any potential accident, I only sit in the car parked in the garage as taking out on the public highway just seems too risky..... :grin:
