The 700wx is probably one of the most stable ppc phones out there because Palm did a lot of work with it. The 6800 is still very new and has a lot of potential.
Not to mention the 700wx is running WM5, so it uses less ram in general on that basis alone.

Oddly my 700wx was more unstable than my Mogul. The soft reset (hardware soft reset) is way better on the Mogul compared to the 700wx. I had a silicon case on my 700wx and had to remove the skin, open the battery pack cover and push the button in to force a soft reset if the device was frozen.

Now if they would just make the Mogul screen refresh faster when you slide the phone open or closed.... That's driving me nuts.
