I'll ask the obvious one, what's the battery life like?

This is one device which I've been keenly anticipating (just waiting for the black model to come out). I'll be upgrading from the original T-Mobile MDA Touch. So I'd be grateful of you could answer the following...
1. What's the screen touch sensitivity like? The MDA required quite a hard press. 2. Is there a pouch or case included in the box? 3. Do you have a feel for s/w compatibility for applications? I would hope to be able to run my copy of TomTom5, but I have about 6 or 7 other apps which I would like to keep. 4. I really tired of the TouchFlo UI on the MDA Touch. I understand it is vastly improved with this model, but just in case I tire of it again, how easy is it to drop back to the old style WM UI? Many thanks for your time! Regards, Toonie. |

1. A LOT better, that was a big complaint of mine about the original Touch too.
2. I don't have the full retail package. 3. As a QVGA Pocket PC, compatability will be excellent. 4. Very very easy! P |

Is the loudspeaker better and louder than the Diamond? In fact is the whole device better than the Diamond? Thanks Paul

Diamond has a VGA screen, which is a big plus...

Many thanks for the replies sofar! I notice in the picture that it's connected to T-Mobile. Are you able to confirm if the roaming bug, which still plagues my MDA Touch is gone from this model? The problem I experience is that the phone 'thinks' it's roaming nearly all the time when I'm within the UK, and therefore not. It's aggravating having a dialogue warning me about it every time I go to check my email.
Thanks, Toonie. |
