I wanted to reply to your concerns. I received my Mogul yesterday and regular Mini usb cables work fine. All of the chargers and sync cables from my Moto Q work fine with it. The only time you will need the adapter is for the headset or aftermarket headphones. Most people that drop the cash for this phone will use Bluetooth headphones and headsets anyway. I don't think anyone will have a problem with it. To answer the second Con, the memory card is on the bottom but tucked under a little bit of a lip and it has a very stong mechanism holding it in. Much stronger than the 6700. To answer the 3rd Con, I agree with the reviewer they made the hole so it can't wear down over time. Unlike the 6700 stylus slot I think they got this one right and it is much easier to access when you need it. I didn't think it would be but it is.
My cons are, too many buttons on the sides, easy to accidentally hit them. No volume control on the side you actually have to use the touch screen to open the volume picker. They do need an on/off switch like the Treos. The scroll wheel only accesses volume while a program is open or you are on the phone. My last is battery life: it is a little better than the 6700, but with light calling, bluetooth, web and email I had to stick it on the charger in the early afternoon. If you are a power user you will definately either need an extended battery or an extra battery and given the flimsyness of the battery cover I might purchase a larger battery when a Sprint extended cover is available. My last gripe echoes the reviewer in that they didn't rubberize the case of the phone. It feels nice in hand but is still a little slick. This phone might need one of those aftermarket rubberized skin from Seidio. Great Review. I will continue to evaluate mine. Thanks.
