Being a passionate Linux user I was curious about Linux Mobile smart phones. Recently I purchased Samsung Galaxy 5 mobile phone which has Android 2.1 which is Linux based operating system developed by Google. It is a 3G phone with GPS and internet connectivity through Wi-Fi and Mobile Network and synchronization with Google Applications. I can download and install Android software. Yesterday I installed Skype and Facebook.
I have enabled GPS in it and the visitors of this blog can track my presence in the power station where I work or my home at Jharsuguda in real time through the Google Latitude gadget on right side bar.
As I was connecting my Nokia phone through USB or Bluetooth to my Laptop for browsing the net I can use this Samsung phone as well through USB or Bluetooth.

I am planning to buy the same Galaxy 5 phone, which will be my first touch screen phone. I was wondering if you can comment on Touchscreen vs Keyboard phones. Also your over all experience against the Nokia phone you used.
I purchased it on last Sunday 28th Nov evening. It is also first touch screen phone for me and the experience has been very good so far.
