Re: EVO vs Epic.. Thinking of Evo, need opinions

My wife misses the built in stylus, and they do make ones that have something magnetic or whatever that work for the Evo, but the one I bought her turned out to be fatter on the end than it appeared on the net swite where I ordered it (it comes with a short string attached to a plastic plug-in that fits into the headphone jack to keep track of it, but that's goofy, doesn't fit into the holster, and is dangling all over - built-in would be much better). And she never used the keyboard on her Mogul, just the stylus.

My point is this - there is no perfect phone for everyone. She has an issue with the Evo because she has long fingernails, and can't use the tips of her fingers with the onscreen keyboard, or even a slide-out one.

I had used physical keyboard phones since 2005 with the Samsung i730. It had an industrial strength IR port, and built-in programmable software to control TV's,VCR's, etc, from accross the room. It was great for messing with the TV's in bars, friends homes, etc. I tried porting the software over to the Mogul, but it wouldn't work, and then I found out the Mogul's IR port was a lightweight, and only had a range of a couple feet or so. Then the IR port went away completely in sunsequent phones.

So we've lost the IR port, the stylus, and the Epic keyboard is inferior to the TP2's. HTC, how about a SuperEvo for those that want it. Android (Gingerbread), keyboard, stylus, and an industrial strength IR port. And let have regular video out in addition to HDMI. And anything else that's missing. A REAL SuperPhone
