Re: 6700 vs 6800

My 6800 also came with a docking cradle that looks about like the one for the 6700.

My wife has a 6700 that was a freebie when my dad upgraded to a 6800. I have a 6800, so I have used both of them side by side. Personally, unless you are in a Reva areas or just really need the GPS, I would stick with the 6700. The keyboard keys are bigger and, to me, easier to use. I like the stylus on the 6700 better because it is longer and easier to use (does not feel cramped). What really makes the 6700 shine is all the software/hacks available for it.

In another 6 months when there has been more development on the 6800 it MIGHT be worth the upgrade. Battery life on the 6800 is better, but you can get a lion 2400 mah extended battery on Ebay now for like $12.00 for the 6700.

I would trade the wife for her 6700 in a minute, but she has figured out that it is a better phone...at least for now. The 6800 is a little smaller, but if you want small get a BB pearl. Function beats form in my book any day.
