There's no doubt that an official pre OS compared with a custom unofficial 6.5 build is going to run faster and more stable. But in a few months we'll see if you still feel this way.

Although I use a Diamond, so one hand texting and phone operation is so easy, especially with compact qwerty.

When they port the Hero UI (you know someone is going to) to winmo, you may just find yourself wishing you'd returned that phone and spent the 6 bills on a week-long spree of sushi.

I have two main gripes w/ wm65 in it's current state -
1) notifications just suck I loved my touch pro, but couldn't stand the way the notifications worked (even under spb mobile shell)
2) capacitive touchscreen. The resistive touchscreeen on the touch pro is ok.. I loved it.. but it feels so archaic now compared to the palm pre.

Don't get me wrong, I love wm.. and I might be back.. wm6 shows alot of potential, and taking a break from wm65 will allow that oS to hopefully mature.. we'll see who's on top in a year.
