I will say that after having the device for about 2 weeks and doing some of the registry hack posted that I'm very happy with this device. One is that I don't feel like my pants are going to fall down (unlike with that brick of a 6700) and two is the memory on this thing is very nice to have. I loaded up all my programs from the 6700 and it used to show 4.3 mbs of memory left. I added all the programs onto my 6800 and it show about 20mbs of memory left. It also downloads internet pages much faster.

The only drawback I hate is that it doesn't have voice command confirmations when dialing through the bluetooth headset but hopefully someone will post a fix for that.

One things for certain - I'm not sending this device back and most likely will keep it for the duration of the two year contract.
I don't understand what the "registry hack" is. What is that used for? Also, I tested a display model out today at the store and when using the touch screen to dial a phone number, there seems to be a hesitation from when I touch the pad until the number appears on the screen. You cannot type the phone number as fast as a normal phone.

Is this a normal hesitation for a touchscreen? Or is there a way to eliminate that slight delay?

Also, can someone direct me to the location to handle the "Speaker/Volume" issue?
