I've used the Apache, Titan, Vogue, Raphael, and Rhodium and am about to switch over to an EVO out of pure boredom (and lots of SODs on my TP2). Can you guys answer some questions for me since I'm an Android noob?
1) Will Android play WMA files? Not that important to me, but I did convert about 4GB worth of music on my SD card to WMA to save space. I would need to grab and organize the originals from my PC.
2) Is Google Maps good enough to replace iGO8 for navigation? Are there any navigation apps that have maps that are saved locally?
3) Is the phone too big? Is it pocket-able? This thing looked pretty beastly...
4) Has it changed your life the way an iPhone change some people's? Just wondering since each WM phone I upgraded too seemed to have just marginal improvements....
5) I have 3 email accounts (work, personal, school)... any problems switching from outlook to the native email client?
Thanks!!!!!!!

1. The Evo will play WMA files. Some people changed the file extension to mp3 to get it to work and some played wma fine using Sense UI's music player. If I'm correct, the default android music player does not support wma. Playing wma will be no problem for you.
2. I use Sprint Navigation and Google Navigation for everything I need and they work fine. I can't comment on iGO since I've never used it. Why would you want to have maps stored locally anyway?
3. It's pocketable...if you wear ****ies. I wouldn't want to carry my investment in my pocket though. How you carry it is a personal preference.
4. It changed my life until the NFL app stopped working. It's simplified my life tremendously. I use it for mp3 player, portable tv, phone, gps navigation, etc....all in one device. People who say iPhones changed their lives probably didn't have a life to begin with.
5. You will need a gmail account. No problem switching through them. Hope it helps.
