  Strengths: I could go on and on with the pros, but after my first week with the phone and only one trip to the manual, a person cannot go wrong with this small and capable smartphone.

  Weaknesses: The con maybe be power, but if a person takes the time to adjust the power saver mode, you can watch internet clips, work in word, edit graphics all day! It can even be powered by a computer USB slot!

  Overall Evaluation: I love my Alltel supplied HTC! It’s sleek no-bulk design is far superior to the iPhone. My wife really likes it too, because it fits inside the palm of her hand too! As for no keyboard, the HTC comes with 6 different ways to input data via the touch screen. My favorite is the transcriber mode. It even recognizes cursive writing when using my fingertip! You can easily switch to Touch Keypad, Touch Keyboard, Letter recognizer, QWERTY keyboard, or Block recognizer options. I have pretty fat fingers and I have no problems with WM6, Word, Excel, etc., navigating or with data entry. It comes with a calibration program to insure when you place your finger on the x button to close a program, it does. Additionally, there are plenty of open source and freeware apps available on the web to further enhance the all-in-one experience (maybe an issue with an iPhone). Did I mention voice command input too! Data rates and internet use is a breeze. Most searches take seconds and with the 2.8-inch screen, display of data is great. Add free apps like windows live search with movies, restaurants, gas prices, etc., programmed and bam, almost anything at your fingertips in seconds. The camera is easy to use and if you choose the sports mode, the camera can automatically click off 3-5 quick shots in a row to guarantee a usable pic. It even adjusts to inside lighting that appears as brownish-yellow shots on most other cameras. For those who use MS Outlook for email and MS Apps at work or home, my phone sync-ed on the very first try with no issues. All my contacts were imported correctedly and the program notified me when I had duplicates (home/office) and asked what to do with them. Since my first sync, any changes to contacts, emails, or files are identified. Email is easy to use... Just like I always use! Hmmm. Overall a great product.

  Strengths: Fast Processor Speed, Increased Memory, TouchFLO, WM6, built-in GPS.

  Weaknesses: Short battery life.

  Overall Evaluation: Love this phone--fast processor, great ROM/RAM, very sleek & lightweight. However, like other HTC devices, battery life is not so great especially if connected to internet or running bluetooth. All-in-all, a decent device which delivers what it promises to be.
