My concerns:

Is Andoid market is still immature and unstable.
I google a lot.

I also got +ve responce from market that its growth in last 3-5 month is incredible from 8%- 22%

If i Buy a Phone I will Keep It for at least 3-4 years so if i purchase a new Phone should i Keep in mind of the Next gen Mobile computing in Mind
Or Just Buy a cool funky Mobile For 2-3 Years to get fully stable and reliable smart phone in markets.

I still cannot find Much apps for Andriod On Web (I mean Useful , there are lots of useless apps)

in My view Os is fully mature when out of 10 Phones (phone comapny ) 7 Phones are of one os.
Like Symbain os , Windows ,RIM.

Those are mature because of time also...

and also when number of mobile phone makes are using that Os In there set.

Today only Htc is Using andoid heavily . sony and samsung are using In there high end phone only)

Also andriod is in Market 2 yrs or somthing and came into pic from last 6-8 months....
Anodrid based Phones are Costlier now But Will be cheaper soon as it is one source

in future as Demand increase The android Phones will be cheaper.....

Please guide Me Guys.....

Should I buy 15 k Nokia x6 now and wait for Fully Android Full Stable

or just go in market and Pick Up Cooool HTC desire .. without any hesitate and with close eyes

Plz Help

P.s. can suggest a new phone tooo if u think

if you have money to purchase a Legend, go for it. Experience on X6 is nowhere near to what you get Legend. Android is already a stable OS.

Just prioritize what u want..

U want great cam with flash, great music, 16gb memory...Nokia X6

OR

u want cool UI, future support, faster device....HTC Legend(music and Cam is OK)

With android u will be able to play xvid using 3rd party software

X6? Seriously?

I am sorry to post this (off-topic), but why do not you wait a little longer and buy N8 the capacitive touch-screen handset (same as iPhone in many respects but at half the price).
Android based phones are good. They operate at high speed/proccy power and fluidicity as compared to Nokia phones but lack mass trust. That's the reason people like you and me find it hard to switch to Android after been using Nokia/Symbian for long. Legend is no doubt very fast but I would love some more phone memory, and I do not want to get behind after paying a lot and not having a front camera. Then there are some other multimedia features.
My advice would be, wait for N8 to come to India. Or if you have someone in Singapore, ask them to bring it for you.

never ever ever be early adopter for such new platforms. NEVER EVER EVER.

hehehe totally agree with you desiibond but remember Android was also taken with such suspicion and it is now beating iPhone with its rising sales figure in the US. What attracts me towards Symbian^3 is that it is fully open source so it will have a community backup just like Android users enjoy (which is awesome. I feel it in the http://www.thinkdigit.com/forum/mobi...on-thread.html). Well that's my guess. I only step back purchasing it due to the bad reviews it earned after its announcement...

not just suspicion. The first edition is always the most buggy one. iOS, android too went through this phase. If you take a look at Android 1.0 and android 2.1, you will notice.
