People have managed to get Android running the original A1200 (in some form). I don't think I'd shell out and get another MING, as nice as it is. A bunch of neat Linux aps ports (mplayer being the best) have been done on the A1200 but my question is: Why should I buy this one? Software? The A1200 already runs Linux and people will flash the changes from the A1600 onto the A1200.
GPS doesn't seem to interesting to me since I would probably have to use some poor GPS software. And no 3G? Wasted potential indeed, since the clear flip screen is probably the coolest feature I've ever seen on a phone.
“The general size and shape certainly calls forth memories of the Centro, but while the previous version was chunky and playful, the Pixi comes off more like its distant cousin... from the year 3000.”
