Well Said Dennis. I have listened to a lot of people on this list coming down on the Ideos - for crying out loud not many people can spare 40 to 80 k for a high end iphone yet they still want to experience Android at a basic level. Of course everyone would wish to own a HTC desire or iphone or the Droid X but pocket wont allow or there are some who can afford but think its stupidity to spend 120,000 on an ipad when you don't own a plot of land. I think we need to kill this discussion - of course an ideos is not and will never be an iphone or HTC but tell you what -it delivers the Android experience to the masses ..thats what it was intended to do.

As for the IDEOS it is on the low end of a smart phone, with a smaller screen to start with. Therefore the app store will list some apps as unavailable for the phone due to developers not indicating that they support the screen size. The apps though can still work on the phone and hence the hacks.
Furthermore, some apps may not be available in "your country" - meaning - we made the apps for the rest of the world excluding Africa. I have also seen the same on Nokia's Ovi Store and Apples app store.
So I have no idea why people are quick to blame the IDEOS for such stuff.
One does not buy a Toyota Ist and keep complaining that Toyotas have small space, small size , small ground clearance while they are yet to buy the Toyota Land Cruiser.
Android has HTCs, Motorolas , Samsungs - the experience is not limited to the IDEOS. If you buy the IDEOS , expect it to be an IDEOS, not a HTC Sensation <http://www.htc.com/europe/product/sensation/specification.html> .
