Hey, maybe you can do the search while your fat *** is eating, while texting, changing the radio station and trying to get your head out of your ***!

Whoa! Is someone off his meds? LMAO

Anyways I think everyone just about covered everything and I'm glad to hear we have a new 6800 convert. You will get used to texting... while driving I guess lol

Fight nice fellas. No need for name calling.....It will just get the thread closed.[/quote]

Your right, Sorry to the regulars here, but seeing people try to do everything but drive irkes me. They slow traffic down and cause accidents, common sense will tell you to drive, pull over and text, or get a head set to talk on.

Again, I am sorry for my rant.

I have a Treo 700wx and a Mogul. The Treo is much better at memory management and actually feels physically more solid. It runs most software well and is very reliable for alarms, and most of the functions the Mogul struggles with.

My problem with it has been the limited screen size, and although the keyboard is ok, I prefer the Mogul keyboard, and the Mogul to me is much more cool. If I wasn't using the Mogul I'd be using the 700wx.

I have PointUI home loaded on the Treo and it is an ideal program for the device if you like 'finger' apps, it gives the Treo a nice interface for its' square screen without a lot of tweaking.

BTW I have the Treo with rubberized case, leather case, BT GPS receiver, all cables, chargers and home charger. I'd be willing to trade for your Mogul and possibly add some cash to the deal. PM me if interested.

If all the leaked specs that have come out turn out to be true I'll be switching.

Play nice everyone!...damn

lol play nice? how would one be unhappy with their life because they tell you texting and driving is stupid? again, i'm a truck driver and if i watch u on my roads texting and driving i will call you and idiot, if you swear towards my truck because you;re texting or on the phone i will swerve towards u and let me tell you, your 3k lbs car is no match to my 80,000lbs truck.

Wow some real *******s on here... like nobody here texts while sitting in traffic... even if im sitting at home its a pain to hafta open up the keyboard to type a message, same for the phone.

I tried calling 911 tonight and it took forever to call 911 because of how the 6800 is designed. Had to press the phone button, wait till the screen showed my keys, dialed it, and it never actually took (im an emergency dispatcher for an organization involved in news media and volunteer EMS, don't lecture me on the safety of driving while using a phone, we know the dangers.. just as dangerous as having a conversation with someone in the car and thats actually a fact from what ive heard)

Why dont you focus on driving rather then talking on your radio and doing all that other **** you truck drivers do. Dont get me started on driving habits, i can guess for certainty you operate your phone while driving and operate other things while driving, so dont use this as a place where you get to yell at someone, im sure we can all find a lot to ***** at you bout...

bottom line is, real bunch of *******s on this ****e who do nothing but yell at others

Good lord, people need to relax.... someone's going to pop an artery...

I text message, a lot... and its very hard to text message with this phone. The keyboards nice but I do a LOT of driving, and its impossible. Also, sorting through contacts, is a pain. Even with that nifty i-pod style scanning feature, its very hard.

Ive been looking at the Verizon 700WX now... any real downsides to the WX besides it not having the slide out keyboard and screen size? I dont care bout the camera, i have a real nikon camera for pictures... any other downfalls? I see it has windows mobile 5.0... is that such a big difference compared to 6.1???

maybe you shoudlnt be text messaging while driving. For 1 its against the law in the states, and for 2, maybe you are part of the reason for accidents + cell phones.
For 3, you have to be 'clueless' (nicest word i could find) to go to the treo from the mogul.

Its actually sickening to see a grown man/woman whine like you do.
