I received my Touch from Sprint today, and here's what I have to say:
-The extra RAM doesn't seem to make that big of a difference.
Okay, sure, I can run 20 applications without much lag, but what's the real point in that? I was already used to closing the apps I wasn't using with the Mogul (thus freeing up RAM for apps that needed it), so the extra RAM now seems redundant. I placed the Touch and Mogul side to side, and the Mogul was actually a bit faster at loading the Today screen from sleep mode.
-The lack of a hard keyboard gives the Touch a completely different experience.
I used the Mogul keyboard a lot. I thought the software keyboards on the Touch would make fine substitutes; I was wrong. There is nothing like typing on the Mogul's hard keyboard. If you text a lot, or you can't live without a good keyboard, do NOT go for the Touch. Keep your Mogul.
-The only real good thing about the Touch is the form factor.
Really. Compared to the Mogul, the Touch is at least 30% smaller, 20% lighter, and has a screen twice as bright. There is an extra layer between the surface and the touch screen, so even with the stylus, pressing the screen requires a bit more pressure than with the Mogul.
I'm not sure if I will keep the Touch or stay with the Mogul. I will give it a few days before I decide.
