IF you install touchflo and screen keyboards, you defeat the purpose of having the Qwerty keyboard and the scrollwheel in my opinion.. Have you ever seen someone try to install a hardware keyboard and solder a Wifi card to the touch??? LOL


just for the fact of less freeze ups and working BT...
Touch>Mogul anyday all day.


Now this is coming from a ex Mogul user and a businessman who uses texting/emailing/instant messaging more then actually calling people.


I laughed when someone said the touch doesn't have a infared port and a flash on a camera... its 2007, those things are irrelevant with bluetooth and 7+ megapixel digi cams.


Its official, I'm selling the Mogul... I see no purpose in it anymore.


LMAO
Well, Touch users CAN'T add a hardware keyboard or wi-fi, that's why you haven't seen it being done.

The logic for Mogul users adding these things, is simply because we can. Just like PPC users adding the whole i-phone theme, we do it because we can.

I personally have the Touch Keypad installed on my Mogul, b/c I find that's the best way to use the keyboard (also easier to use one handed) without actually sliding the keyboard out. But, if I need to type a long message or email, the hardware keyboard may be a better option on the Mogul, but it's not an option at all on the Touch.

The whole TouchFlo and cube, is just for looks, yet each button has a purpose and is linked to an app that I'd actually use. I have the cube installed


Now, the more important things, like Wi-Fi. I personally find EV-DO coverage to be "Okay", but it's not better than Wi-Fi (don't try and convince people they'll never need it). In fact, when you take your Touch in places where there's absolutely NO COVERAGE, you can't use the internet at all. The Mogul, you're able to turn the phone radio OFF and still use the internet over Wi-Fi (like in a hospital), streaming via wifi is much better than your carriers data network. There's even the ability to use internet sharing via wi-fi, but since the Touch's hardware doesn't have this, that will never be an option. There's tons of reasons why wi-fi is put on mobile devices, it's like saying, "Well, I'll get a new laptop but don't care if it has Wi-Fi" Well, even if you have a laptop with no Wi-Fi, you can use my Mogul to connect wirelessly.

And regarding the camera flash. I'd assume that you'd want anything that comes with the phone to work as good as it can, whether you have a 7 mega pixel camera or not is not relevant. The camera that comes on the phone is what we're talking about. If it doesn't have a flash, it doesn't have a flash.

And for IR ports, you've never needed to send something to a printer via an IR port? Or maybe even use you're phone as a remote control just because you can.

Now, I'm LMAO!!
