I have only had Nokia's previous to this phone, so I struggled to adjust from the 4x3 keypad layout, but now I'm completely adjusted.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I find Windows Mobile 6.5 to be better than 6.1, but I see HTC have all but killed handwriting recognition in 6.5&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Anyway, I think you will really like this phone, hope you enjoy it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.technet.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=3297220" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Decisions Decisions, and “When is a phone not a phone ?”</title><link>http://blogs.technet.com/b/jamesone/archive/2009/11/27/decisions-decisions-and-when-is-a-phone-not-a-phone.aspx#3296705</link><pubDate>Fri, 27 Nov 2009 20:15:15 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d5e57398-b9ef-4490-9955-07cbb4e4a80d:3296705</guid><dc:creator>Greg Chapman</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Well, I too share your dilemma. I didn't want all these things on my phone because I knew that adding features adds complexity. Often, those features interfere with using it for it's primary purpose; voice communication.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the last two years, I have started to get over that because of social networking (controlling my gag reflex here). This device has turned out to be the long-promised point of convergence for me. It didn't seem possible, however, until the advent of the HTC Touch Pro 2.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Finally, there is a reasonable, touch-screen, readable alternative to the iPhone (read: freedomg of carrier choice and application base).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Despite the hefty price tag, I think you're going to like this machine.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.technet.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=3296705" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
