Size and weight. Its hardly noticeable in my pocket.

Thumbweel with OK button next to it. = One handed nav. Great!

Battery life. Using WIFI, exchange push, and listening to music on speaker,
It last beyond a day. My Apache w/ latest kitchen and latest Radio couldnt even last 1 day.

Performance - I am impressed. It seems more snappy than the apache. Even loaded up with all the apps I am used to. HTC home, X-button, etc. I did not let the extended rom programs run on startup, I might add.

Negatives of 6800:
Once it wouldnt stop vibrating untill soft reset, and the alarm wouldn't wake the phone.

So, If its customizing thats important then stay with the apache. I have done almost every kitchen rom upg. with the apache, But I have to say that I am very happy to upgrade to the 6800.
You are making me rethink, I have over the weekend to decide, thanks for the input! I have to agree with fitbryan, they are kinda ugly........
