Re: Is it all over?
One big reason that I wouldn't want to "upgrade" to a Mogul - is portable gaming. I use my 6700 to emulate old games almost daily. It requires a lot of processing power to emulate SNES and even GBA. For two reasons, that currently can't be done well on the Mogul:
1) Overclocking - Last I checked, there's no overclocking software currently available for the dual core processor of the Mogul. On emu gaming forums, mogul and even Tytan II owners have complained about the sluggish speed as a result.
2) Simultaneous Button Presses - There's a program written for the 6700 that allows you to press two buttons at the same time and have both register. The Tytan II does this natively. The Mogul, for some stupid reason, does not - and no one's yet written a program for it.
If I were to "upgrade" my 6700, I'd have to give up emu gaming until the gaps could be fixed. I'd also have to buy more accessories, I've already got a GPS unit. And according to reports, I'd have to put up with a lot more firmware bugs than we see from the 6700 WM6 kitchen.
So yes, perhaps I'm stupid - but right now I wouldn't trade my phone for free. On a thread on the main forum, someone else posted that they REJECTED a free trade and requested a refurb 6700 instead.
