Well its been a long time coming, and I fianlly upgraded my phone from the AT&T Tilt (HTC Kaiser/Tytn II) to the AT&T Tilt 2
Here's my first impressions of the phone.
1. the foot print is larger than the Tilt 1 of the past, after using my tilt for 2+ years, it feels alittle bulky (but no where near the size of my SX66). The case I was handed at the AT&T store doesn't help... It looks like something from Fisher Price and had a big scratch on the screen upon unboxing.
2. No jog wheel! and very very few hardware buttons. Honestly I love my hardware buttons....
The Jog wheel and OK button in the back, the D pad in the front... I almost feel naked with out them and find myself trying to hit the tiny tiny windows OK thru the clunk plastic protector case and only end up frustrating myself. I miss my hardware keys!
3. Oddly enough I've had issues using Pocket Controler and hitting the Space bar while typing... It seems to be related to what touch screen Keyboard input layout I'm using. Needless to say, the space bar doesn't work depending...
4. Using Explorer on my desktop to browse the root drive and into the Windows folder on the device was and has been HORRIBLE. I typically do this to manage my Start Menu and folder structure... it can take 2-3 minutes to populate the \Windows folder... sad....sad.
5. It has a G sensor... yet TouchFlo doesn't support rotation via the G sensor...
6. I can't stand the "Messenge Sent" Dialog, I know it's possible to disable, but it's just annoying ;)
More to come as I tinker with it.
