best new gsm phone ?

In my opinion, right now, it's the Samsung Galaxy S. It's currently the fastest Android hardware, has a GPU *way* faster than any other Android phone. Currently the Nexus One with Android 2.2. can run faster in certain situations, but the SGS is due for Android 2.2. before the end of the year. The SGS has the best screen by far of any phone on the planet, in every category that I can think of. Oh, and it eats iPhone 4s for breakfast.
 
the galaxy s is a very nice phone, but i'm still a bigger fan of the n1. the hardware seems to be topnotch, and the dev support (and google support) is the best of the best. only time will tell to see if the galaxy is picked up by a lot of devs and how easy it is to root and stuff.
 
What do you mean by "picked up by a lot of devs"?

I'm a developer, and have written a number of apps for my phone. When you develop an app you generally don't develop it with a specific phone in mind. You might require it to have a minimum Android version, or you might support different display resolutions, but that's about it. I'd imagine all apps that work on the Nexus One will work on the Samsung Galaxy S.

The Nexus One hardware is certainly very good. I guess only time will tell if the Samsung Galaxy S lasts so well.

Samsung support has a pretty bad reputation.

The SGS has been rooted since June 23rd according to engadget. Has any Android phone not been rooted yet?
