Stylus position fixed and then broken!!!
The problem with the stylus position on the 6700 was that when the thumb-board was slid out I had to reach over between my left hand index and middle finger to retrieve and replace the stylus. This was slightly awkward but doable.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
When I saw in photos that they had moved it to the bottom right I was pleased that they solved that minor problem. BUT, now that I have received the phone I have found that they switched the side the thumb-board slides out from! This means the stylus is back on my left hand's side and this time hidden behind the palm of my hand so I can sneak it out between my fingers! OMHO, this sucks!<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Another thing changing the side the thumb-board slides out from screws up is the ability to use the D-pad and phone buttons with my right thumb when it's slid out. Am I the only one that found that convenient enough on the 6700 to grow dependant on it?<o:p></o:p>

So <SARCASM><SARCASM>unless there is a right and left handed version of this phone and I got the left handed version by mistake, </SARCASM>I'm not very pleased with the decision to move the thumb-board to the other side. I feel like this is an example of design by committee where in one group fixed the stylus position only to have another group change the thumb-board side with lack of communication between the two.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Am I alone on this??? - tX<o:p></o:p>
