Show us your desktop - Android edition

I’ve become a bit of a phone geek. We’ll, that’s really an understatement. I’m a huge phone geek – I know more about my G1 than I do my laptop.

Thanks to the peoples at AndroidAndMe, who are having a contest for everyone to show off their android desktop, I’m showing off mine. Hell, I show everyone in person anyway because my G1 with Android rocks! Sure it may be a bit chunky compared to an iPhone but you can’t beat the fact that it’s open source and the OS is amazing.

Now, there isn’t a whole lot special about these screenshots, other than the lock screen (yes, the linux penguin) that I put together. The icons and the wallpaper are all from the hero build, same with the widgets. I only use three screens and I need very few apps. I don’t play games on it – I check email, I write blog posts and I keep a todo list.

So what’s under the hood?
It’s a G1 on T-Mobile with an 8gb sd card running swap and apps2sd. The OS is jacHero 2.3.3 which is the most flawless Hero OS so far. It runs HTC’s Touchflow (“Rosie”) interface without overclocking and the build gets better everyday.

Any questions?

Feel free to ask, I’ll be glad to point you in the right direction as always.
