How brilliant it is living in Birmingham....

...Popped into my local t-mobile store today to ask about the G1 and the guy there said he'd just got a sample one in yesterday which he was getting used to today and so offered it up to me to have a look

like me, he was initially quite critical of the design especially, which in pictures looks especially tacky, but, when you actually use one, the design is absolutely wonderful - build quality is quite simply excellent - you get the feeling that a drop from the empire state building would be something it would take in its stride, shrug off, and move on

the software is also great - its unimaginably fast....click, drag, type, request absolutely anything at any speed you like and instantly its been done - the screen rotation is nigh-on instantaneous (way, way faster than any windows mobile or symbian device, and even faster than any iphone)

they're expecting it to be free on the £40 a month tariff, but won't get actualy pricing till its release on the 30th october (that's thursday, for some reason)

i can't really answer any complex questions cause i only had about 5 minutes with the phone, but i'll do my best if you have any

1) Can you confirm that is definitely going to be in UK stores tomorrow?  T-Mobile have gone worryingly quiet about it and given how they delayed the vario IV i've been worried that they'll push back the release date

2) How do you find the keyboard?

3) can you give us you three worst and three best aspects of the device?
