Re: 6700 vs 6800
I'm a long time 6700 user and i recently switched to the 6800 via assurion replacement. mine was NIB and i'm a little confused how you guys got a cradle but mine did not come with one...
as for what i like..
-thinner lighter and no antenna thing, over all just looks better, not brickish
-durable d-pad, joystick on the 6700 broke 3 out of 4 times
-spring loaded keyboard is nice and all the keys light up so you can see shifted keys!
-battery cover that stays on! and better battery life
-memory card stays put, my 6700 could shoot the thing across the room, lost over $100 of memory cards because of that. i ended up putting tape over it to hold it in.
-more megapixels but... see below
what i don't like but doesn't bother me to much...
-camera has more megapixels but it still sux and video is terrible compared to what it could be...
-stylus is kinda funky
-too many buttons, i don't use the 2 over the screen at all
-wish it had a 3.5mm head phone jack instead of the usb to 2.5 then 2.5 to 3.5
-scroll wheel is useless even if it did control the volume i wouldn't ever use it anyway
-keys on keyboard lack in feedback compared to the 6700 but i still like the 6800 keyboard more
overall i am much happier with the 6800, though it could use a few minor improvements i believe what i gained far out weighs what i lost/miss
