The Good . . .

As mentioned many software options and the touch screen was convenient as I transitioned from the Pocket PC world where touch and stylus were everything.

SMS threaded conversation

The QWERTY keyboard is nice and solid.

Easy access SD Slot

The 680 came with a full version of Docs to Go

The Bad . . .

Many many many many resets . . . oh has that been mentioned?

Activesync- just terrible.

The Ugly . . .

The units themselves- big, heavy and bulky- hasn't improved with the 680 but maybe with the centro this will be improved.

Resets, dropped calls, speaker issues, did I mention resets?

Activesync- sorry had to mention it again!

Wow out of a nostalgic moment I went and got my old 650 to play with it . . . yuck! I love my 8310!


Now this was my wifes phone before I conviced her to get the 8130 like mine. She hated the size of it as well. Most annoying part was the touch screen was always active when you where talking to someone. I think she took about 20 pictures or started playing some game while she was talking to customers.
