So I can safely say that this device will directly connect to an exchange server to synch my Calendar, Email, contacts without the need for the Blackberry synch software or the having to have the Blackberry server installed? I love the concept of the phone, I just hate the Blackberry Way of collecting and distributing email as well as the need of having to be connected to a computer to synch calendar and contacts.

Thanks for the great write-up!

Question!

Can you adjust the sensativity of the click through?? So, that you can decide how hard you need to "push" on the button??

Does a “ridiculous” viewing angle mean it is good or bad?

I just can not see this thing gaining serious traction.

I mean really no WiFi .... come on. WiFi is a must for me..... solid and fast.

will see where this goes when it is available. If the price is anywhere above $199 this will be a VERY TOUGH SELL indeed.

ijah420 says RIM only makes handsets their reach is very limited (not a desktop OS). I also see major problems with sw updates and serious enterprise applications. I just get the gut that the thing will not flow real well. ie when I scroll thru my contacts on my phone I can flick fast or slow and stop that scroll on a dime just by laying my finger on the glass. Just my experience. Will be VERY interesting to see how this holds up to a device that was ridiculed by the very company that is now playing catch up.
