I looked at it in the store.
It was tethered to the case, so hard to get a good feel for it.

The screen looked good and it responded well to my fingers.
I looked at the hero next to it for a moment, looked at the roller ball, and reifirmed the decision that i hate those things, They always feel so cheep and lame.
So i didn't even bother.
Went back to the moment. Played with it slightly, checked out the keyboard.
I'm a buttons guy, and I love all the buttons on the slide out keyboard on my TP. I'm going to miss them when my moment comes, They cramped the keyboard for style.
They need to expand this stuff and make more buttons! but keep it simple like the TP keyboard. That is the best keyboard i've seen yet. Ctrl button was my friend as well. It is so hard to copy and paste with a stylus. Just select it and hit the buttons like you would on the computer, very nice.
The function button was nice also. I dont recall seeing that sorta feature on here. But i could be mistaken. I like options, and buttons and buttons. I was dissapointed in the TP due to the normal buttons, They were garbage, made me want my mogul back.
We could truely get a good phone if they stop trying to sleek phones together.
OH crap, i'm ranting.

but anyways. The initial impression i got from the moment was really good.
I wanted to sit down and play with it for an hour though.
So i just ordered it to try it out. We'll see if the TP2 wins or the moment.
The moment has the nice processing speed. but the lack of tethering is a big breaking point.
Tethering is all i got for internet in my area, that and super poor service that sprint wont come out and fix.
Or VZW. Nobody. Only nextel has decent service here. haha.

If you say hero is better because of the multi touch and yada yada.
Why are you worried?
The Moment is a higher speed device. They dropped it out before its been developed all the way because the hardware is good.
Once this device is hacked, or taken care of properly by samsung, there most likely will be all the flashy bells and whistles.

And.
3.5 mm phone jack!
woooooooo!
