An Android phone with a great QWERTY keyboard.... if this gets fully developed, it'll definitely blow the Droid out of the water with it's lame keyboard.

Seriously, they're just different things. That's a tough question to answer.

My concern about Android is that its not been around long enough to have all the bugs out of it and their Marketplace sucks only slightly less than windows mobile marketplace.

Is Android modifiable the same way that WM? A nice surprise for me was how much can be done with WM.

Um there marketplace is was better then WM. Every new app is for android and Iphone. Devs are slowly moving away from WM format. I say slowly but that's a understatement. TO repeat myself every new app that goes to iphone is developed for android as well. No Windows Mobile love anymore.

I agree. WM is on it's way out. I see in the next two years that WM apps will have slowed to Microsoft releases only.

Hate to say it, but think of anything Win-Mo can do and android can do it better. Ive been playing with it flashed on my vogue and the app store is to die for.

I still own a vogue that is tucked away in my closet. Can you flash an Adroid Rom to it or do you run it off of the storage card? Got a link for the best place for me to get it???

If you Open up the launcher... Go to the App called "Spare Parts". There you can change the "End Button" our "Power Button" once tapped, to go back to the Home screen.
