Technical Differences between Kaiser and Touch Dual

[Guest]

Evening,

I am nearly at the end of my contract with t mobile (February) and their lovely wnw and thinking of either the Vario 3 or the touch dual (or whatever t mobile will call it)

Basically what i am looking for is the not so obvious differences between the two.

If you presume i already know about the WIFI, GPS , Camera and size of screen the stuff I want to know about is the rest.

For wifi I thought i would use it a lot but with t mobile i hardly ever turn it on due to excellent hsdpa speeds. GPS would be nice but my current vario 2 and I have been coping well and the camera well ho hum don't use it much now anyway.

I'm more interested in the fact that the Touch Dual is nearly half the weight and looks like a phone (yet has all those ppc features i need).

I read somewhere that the vario 3 has two processors one 400 mhz for general os stuff and another 275 for the phone part. this apparently makes it very responsive. Does the touch dual have the same as they are supposedly based on the same chipset the qualcomm m7200 or something. Is the touch dual (which has 3g and the same amount of ram and rom) the same responsiveness as the kaiser and for general use the same.

These are the kind of questions I would like to ask preferably from someone who owns both or has used both. also how is the t9 keypad for text messaging and general use ? do you miss the larger amount of hardware buttons on the v2 and v3 compared to the touch dual. how is the slider after owning it for a while. Is it well built ?

Watch this space, i'll be posting something on this very topic later this week!

In a nutshell tho, if GPS and WiFi aren't important, the Dual is awesome. Having a real keypad makes a massive difference, and the TouchFlo implementation (hardware and software) is just spot on!
