1. DOWNGRADED TO A LOTUS AFTER BUYING THIS P.O.S.

I hated this phone. It was slow out of the box.
I had this phone for a few weeks before it started REALLY slowing down.
HTC's touch-screen phones just don't seem to have enough memory.
If you can see through the fingerprints on the screen, then you may see how sluggish this piece of hardware is.
Not worth a second look.
Would have been VERY flashy back in 2005EXTREMELY SLUGGISH, and just gets slower over time.
The whole things is basically a monitor, so once it's dropped, your money is gone.
Only really good for showing to friends, but for that it's kind of old.

This is actually a pretty decent device. Nothing works perfect out of the box and this is no exception! The touch screen is pretty responsive but using the stylus is a good idea if you have big fingers or no nails. Texting on the suretype style keyboard isn't awful - just a learning curve. Call quality isn't that great and the reception bars were always changing which usually doesn't happen where I live. I loved the pre loaded games! Battery life wasn't super.. good idea to get an extra battery or car charger. The camera wasn't the greatest: no flash and 2.0 megapixels. I would reccomend this device but with warning that it is in no way perfect!

Typing on it is a pain unless you have a decent keyboard application. Down load PCM Keyboard. It emulates the iPhone keyboard and works great! For better navigation I purchased the Pro version of PointUI (there is also a free version). Extended life batery gets me about 3 days with 500+ texts/pics, camera use, phone calls, and push email. It locks up every once in a while but i think it is just some of the applications that I am using. Next I'll probably get a Pre or Storm.

It's nice to look at. Hate the digital clock face that most of these WinMo phones have but the phone itself is pretty cool looking. Works well but not especially fast as you might think. A bit cumbersome to navigate but I'm not a big fan of touch. Applications are nice and functional. Would make a nice organizer but as a phone it mainly just looks good. All pocket pc and if you like windows you will like this for a windows phone. Highly customizable.

Transcribe is cool.Resets

Always hit the on/off or camera button by mistake.
I hate trying to type on this phone. Finger touch does make it a little better.

5. Great PDA, Poor phone

I swithed to this from a palm treo about a year ago. It is a great device fro work. Its fast, stable and I have come to depend upon it heavily for my work. However, as a pure phone, it struggles. I have been with verizon for 10 years and could count the number of dropped calls on one hand. Since getting this phone, it drops at least one or two calls every day. The only other minor annoyance is that it lacks WiFi connectivity so you have to rely on verizon's EVDO nework even in places where you have wirleless available.
Excellent features and stability.Very poor phone and no WiFi.

6. Done With It

I'm going to be quick. Bought this phone in august with a contract. I returned it the first time when the battery only lasted an hour. I returned the second phone in February when the screen totally died on me. I am now returning my 3rd phone since text messaging freezes the screen about 3 times a week.
All that aside, the phone is pretty decent but beware the battery life(awful. 2.5 hours of talk time at best. i have to charge it twice a day if I plan on going out at night), the QWERTY keyboard is a cruel cruel joke(too small for human fingers), poor recepton(my gf's motarola q phone out reception-izes me all the time), and lack of customization unless you want to buy 3rd party sofware. Also the media player is virtually usless due to the battery consumption and works slowly. Word, excel work great tho.
Word
Excel
Opera
Works great with Gmail popQWERTY keyboard is the worst I've ever seen
Active sync is buggy at best
BATTERY LIFE IS TERRIBLE!!!
Drops calls at random even with several bars
Home screen is rather lame and difficult to customize
Did I mention the battery life? geez

I absolutely love this phone! The transcriber took me about 2 days to get used to and it works great! I use the transcriber to do everything from writing my list of things to do for the day to creating new contacts and sending text messages. I would not ever go back to another phone. PLUS it is on the 3G network for Verizon and the download speeds are fab! I am so happy. Seems like this phone works the best on Verizon's network!

Lightweight
Battery life lasts a long timenone so far!!!

9. Amazing technology and functioanlity in a compact package

I have had the CDMA version from Bell since Nov, this phone is amazing for the amount of features it has packed into succh a small package. It has an amazing messagaing center where my outlook enmail and all my other emai accounts Gmail, Yahoo, and MSN also are easily accessed. in this same center are all my SMS messages. I can run all microsoft apps including word, excel, and powerpoint. and does Zip files, and Adobe, pretty much everything I can throw at it. the multimedia is amazing, on the 3G network I can download or steam videos from virtually any site, not just Youtube, and it takes 3-5 seconds for 10-20meg of video - amazing! I have downloaded emulators for Gameboy, for NES and for SNES, and can play thousands of my classic old games, including earthworm jim, battletoads, galaga, etc etc. I listen to audio bools and music through a bluetooth STEREO headset (something iPhone forgot about) and can control all my calls, music, and audio via the headset. the customizable homescreen with integrated weather, SMS, time, outlook calendar, contacts, message center, email, and virtually anything else you want is fantastic. I like having a few buttons, more could be better when dialing calls or playing games. and the battery life is not as good as I would like, but it does last a full day of heavy use. The camera could us a flash, the reception and call quality are superb.

10. Horrible as a phone... but does other things

I've owned this phone for 6 months now... I hate it. I would never buy another phone with a Windows Operating system on it... its like being back in the days of windows 98 first edition. Random problems just happen and I have to reboot quite often... which takes forever. Sometimes buttons just stop working. The caller ID never shows up right. I have re-flashed it several times. It woks great as a phone as modem I use it all the time for that... but other than that I would save your money. Just my honest opinion it looks like a lot of other people love this phone. Maybe part of the problem is Sprint I dunno. But never ever again.
