Seriously, I don't like a few minor things, like attachments to emails, at least large ones, don't download automatically, regardless of the settings. You have to click the download arrow, and what is worse, you can't navigate away without it cancelling out the download. I've even had it go to sleep and cancel the download.

Most of the issues I have are like that, minor, and fairly easily dealt with. I don't think it multi-tasks quite as well as WinMo (in certain areas), and there are other examples, but I just can't think of them right now.

All in all, I would rate the Evo better in 95%+ ways, and only in less than 5% is it a little weaker in comparison. Lack of a powerful Office suite is another way. Documents To Go strips some formatting out of desktop documents, which is an issue, especially when you have to send it back with changes, and it goes back looking like craps, hot-links are gone, etc. It's pretty lame. I'm trying to talk SoftMaker into porting their incredibly powerful Office suite over to Android. It has virtually all the functions of the desktop version, and doesn't strip out any of the formatting.
There's an app on the market called "Quickoffice" that is made specifically for Android devices and allows you to open, view, and edit any Microsoft Office document. There's a free and paid version. The paid version is rather pricey, but it seems really functional.
