After playing around with a couple of iphones lately, I have to say that in direct comparison to the Mogul with WM6.1, the iphone is no faster. Programs load at the same rate, only the difference is the flashy transitions are used instead of a revolving circle (WM6.1). The time taken to use the youtube app to load a video is immeasurably longer (even on wifi) than the time it takes to find and load said video on Mogul.

Slow and bloated ??? WM I think not.

All the iphone fanboys/girls have no clue.

Been there, done that more times than I wish to admit.

I don't know why people are so concerned with having a higher megapixel camera. Megapixels only determine the size (resolution) of the picture. They have absolutely nothing to do with the quality. Picture quality is the product of a good sensor, good focus, the and absence of noise. They could bump it up to 12MP and still have no increase in quality.

As far as VGA is concerned, I hope it's not. 480x640 on a 2.8" screen would be impossible to use without increasing the text size, and that would defeat the whole purpose of the higher resolution.

I'm totally with you on the camera. Let's hope its auto-focus as we see on the tilt and not the fixed-focus of the mogul and most other cell phones.

But the font issue, I disagree. VGA is awesome, bring it on.

There would have to be SOME bump in resolution for them to justify increasing the screen size... otherwise, what would be the point of outsourcing a custom panel?

Oh and you guys seriously think that the display is going to be VGA in terms of its color capacity? Keep in mind how many colors VGA brings......
