Re: Snap Versus Ozone

So far I like the Ozone a lot. My only complaints are-

1) Settings menu is all text instead of Icons like standard WM phones. I don't know if it is a standard smart phone thing or if it is unique to the Ozone/Snap.

2) Today screen lacks "real" customization. So far I'm stuck with the defaults and there is no way to add additional plugins.

On the plus side-

1) GPS is simple. It just plain works. I get locks in a matter of seconds and it did not require any hacking. Google maps and Garmin XT work perfectly.

2) WIFI is great. I've been creating my own hotspots using WM Wifi Router. I can connect my laptop and PDA to the internet via adhoc wifi from my phone. Nice!

3) PIE now supports Youtube and other video sharing sites. No need to download 3rd party software just to watch Youtube.

4) KB is a bonus coming from an all touchscreen phone. One hand texting is possible.

All in all it's a great phone but sometimes I miss my Vogue.
Chome Config should help out with Complaint 2, the program works awesome on the Sprint Snap.
