A colleague of mine bought Samsung Galaxy Apollo, a nice little simple phone but she came to me saying she doesn't know how to put it into silent mode. OK I said I`m not really an Android expert just pass me the manual and I`ll have a look. I almost burst out laughing when I read the instruction: "go to the phone application and press and hold the # key on the keypad"!!!
I mean I`m sure there is a better way and that the phone was running 2.1 Eclair but to put this in the manual as an official and easiest way is amusing. Samsung, you have touchscreens now with pull-down menus etc! It just confirmed for me that I made a good decision to let Android mature for couple of years before I jump aboard, if ever.

Yeah, I only got the Desire because I was tired of always using dead platforms... It's like I have the kiss of death on all the gadgets I use.
Spanning 15 years, I killed the Psion, the original Palm and now the N800/N810/N900.

A similar thing happens on my Android device (which has a hard drive so might act differently): if you are browsing files (in the file browser and not a music app) and click on an mp3 it will play. But if you leave the player it will stop playing the file. So very annoying.

Just a poorly written manual :P

Open default browser on my HTC Desire, click a link to a podcast. It starts playing the podcast as an overlay to that page (which I later found out was an mp3 file), and I listed to it for about 20 mins. Click on the menu button to open a new window so I could continue browsing while listening to the podcast. Playback stops, the overlay closes and loses track of where it was. I decided not to listen to the podcast any further...
Today I am back on the N900. :P
