OK, now I'm curious as to why you prefer the Android over the Bold. I went back and did a search for topics on the Android. Here is your response back in September 2008 about the Android:

'I honestly can not see this phone catch on like the iPhone did. Just can't see it. It will be interesting to see some other devices that get the Google OS put on them. Some big hits I see right off the bat, like Rene mentioned, 1GB of data? Ouch... Amazon MP3 will never outshine iTunes - not going to happen. Etc...
This will not come close to the iPhone. No way.'

Don't mean to put you on the spot Bad, but now I'm really curious!

Ha, that is compared to the iPhone, not BlackBerry. So I still feel the same way about Android vs iPhone.

Another reason I became interested is that I love to be able to hack things. Not many things you can do with a BlackBerry. Fair enough?

Fair enough! Have fun 'hacking' and let us know how you like it.

Default LED really isn't useful once you skip the first notification

I agree, badges with numbers are more helpful than a flashing LED.

Another problem is that if i get a reply or DM in Twitter, Twitterberry can have the LED flash, vibrate, and make a tone, but there is no badge at the top of the screen. Similar for Jivetalk, though I can select a special LED color to let me know it's a message through Jivetalk.
