    On black friday I got a G1 for 99$ (on plan, but mine was just expiring so it's all good). I love it so far. The only problem for me is that one can't write widgets or C software for it only java applications.

    I love my G1.

    The dev-phone is nothing special. It's just a physical representation of the emulator SDK
    which of course is free.
