 Good but... October 31, 2008

I so wanted to fall in love with this phone, but the damned thing is just too slow and temperamental.
Take the iWannabe touchFlo interface which is, like, really cool. For about five minutes, after which you get fed up to the back teeth waiting for it to respond. Scrolling between tabs takes an age and often freezes. Attempting to navigate webpages on the woeful Opera random-zoom browser is hell on earth - it's got a mind of its own.
I couldn't believe the phone-answering-in-the-pocket business could be true, but - yup - HTC have designed a touch sensitive screen that becomes active in your pocket and rejects precisely 100% of your incoming calls. That must be number one thing on the "we're designing a touch screen phone: which problems are we likely to encounter?" list. Incredible.
Another maddening design aspect is the contoured Diamond back. You would have though this might serve some ergonomic purpose; but when you pull the keyboard out and place the phone on a flat surface it actually tilts away from you and rocks around making typing impossible. Uh?! The keyboard itself, although it feels like it is going to snap off the phone any time soon, is really very good indeed.
All that said, you can tweak this thing into quite a pretty good phone. The Answerkeys Disabler app solves the pocket problem. The TF3D Config app improves the TouchFlo performance no end. Using Internet Explorer over Opera gives more reliable browsing experience. As with all WinMO phones syncs with Outlook work like a dream. The screen, while a mite small at 2.5", is very sharp and bright.
I very nearly sent this phone back but have learned to cope with it. It's just a real shame it takes days of twiddling to get the thing working to its full potential. That's not really what you hope for in a ear-bleedingly expensive phone.
