I honestly can't understand anyone waiting for the i760 unless they are tied to Verizon. There are comparable networks, with better rate plans, and better phones. Best-o-luck all.
I don't know how different the Mogul is from the VZW6800 that I have been testing, but it kinda bothers me. Hear me out and you will see why I am pretty excited, and have some high hopes from the i760.

I'm coming from a Treo 700w, then 700wx. If you hang out in Treo forums, you know it is no perfect. But after just one day with the 6800, I've discovered it's pretty sweet how they have it configured.

On the 700wx, you can be sending and email, or txt message, or making a call in about 3 seconds. All with just my thumb. Type a few chars of the name, it pops up in the home screen, hold the middle button down over the contact and a little pop up window comes up and i select, email, call or txt. Bam, that's it.

With this 6800, I can't find a super fast way to do it.. I don't think there is. I never really realized how super sweet the Treo had it setup until I stopped using it.

I'm hoping with the front keypad, the i760 will allow me to kick off things like calls, txt messages, email, real quick maybe not as fast as the Treo, but pretty quick anyway. Since I support dozens and dozens of these devices, I don't want to move to something that is much harder to do basic things like make a phone call.

Not sure if anybody who has used a i760 can chime in on that or not?
