Hi,

I am currently using the Garmin Asus A10. It is a gem of Navigational Phone.

It is running Android 2.1 and upgradable to 2.2 by end Feb, 2011 (as communicated by Support guys)

I got the phone on the day of soft launch. There were 5 phones sold that day and unfortunately I was the 5th one :(

I picked mine @ 15k. After a week the prices are between 17 and 18.5

Just search yahoo mail application in Andriod Market by yahoo inc, This application is superb just like gmail, and very easy to use.

you don't have to root for that - just goto settings->applications and uncheck 'unknown sources'

As I suggested in a previous post, get K-9 mail from the market. You should be able to configure Yahoo mail automatically.

One cannot install Samsung Apps on Galaxy 3 (Android). it says that the policy of Google prevents it from doing so.

Is anyone able to play "Angry Bird- Seasons" on Galaxy 3 or any other sub 15k Android properly ?

Its too slow on my Galaxy 3, much slower than the original Angry Birds.

However, on my iPod Touch 2G, both games work like a charm. Pity full versions are paid apps in Apple store.

Angry Birds sure is pathetic on Galaxy 3 but found it is better on Galaxy 5. But it rocks on the Nexus one.

Try Angry Birds Seasons on Galaxy 3. Much better.
