Alls I know is that the Shift is a big step up from my Vogue and Hero. I used the process of elimination to make my decision. Nay on Evo, because no hardware keyboard and phone is "too big" to put in pocket. Nay on Epic, because it doesn't have Froyo and who knows when that will happen. 2.2 is a big deal for both Flash 10.1 and ability to move apps to external storage. Yay on Shift, because it has a keyboard and the latest Snapdragon 2 processing unit. The GPU, although not as impressive as the Epic's, still is a step up from the Evo. Nay on Shift that there is no FFC, but I can live without it.
