What are the main differences that make the Kaiser so much better than the 6800? (Not trying to be argumentative, just legitimately curious) Thanks.
For starts, a front camera for video conference, A tilt front to use the camera, 3 mega pixel instead of 2, HSUPA.... I think they both have full GPS, so that is all I remember off the top of my head.
Things that come to mind -
More memory - not main but useful for all the kitchens
Better camera - 3 megapixel autofocus not important to me but could be for others
Appears to have front camera for video conferencing
Tilt/swivel feature for screen - not important to me but still a feature some might like.
GPS - looks like it has a full GPS - would LOVE to have that on my phone
Better speaker - useful to me as I would in a lot of loud environments - hard to hear the ringer
Seriously though I do think HTC is working towards better phones with the kaiser and the touch. I just wish we'd feel some of that love on the CDMA side.

I just read that in the secert FCC report the Mogul has a full GPS too. Now I'm still trying to find out what's so much different between a full GPS, TeleNav, and TomTom Navigation 6 mobile.
AGPS (assisted GPS I believe) means you have to contact someone for the phone to get triangulated data on its location. Telenave I believe is the service sprint sells on a monthly basis for that service. Potentially AGPS could do this without monthly service fees but not currently as they are difficult to access and most units with them don't support java from what I've been told.
TomTom, Iguidance and others are software that run on your phone should it have a full GPS or link to a full GPS that maps and navigates for you. MS live and other apps that are small and free do the same thing but without some of those functions.

So the Mogul will have a full GPS in it like TomTom then? Except the only difference is it doesn't need an extra receiver right?
Whether or not gps will be available (even though all signs point to it being an option), you can always buy a bluetooth gps receiver and software on your own. That's a one time purchase (unless you decide to spend money when the map dates become available every couple years or so). I personally use Tomtom.
There's no way I'll let Sprint nickel and dime me by charging me a monthly fee for gps service.

I would also never pay Sprint one dime for a service that was built into the phone and they intentionally disabled.
The fact that you can just buy an external receiver should force Sprint to just leave it alone in the first place. Why make me carry around an external receiver if I don't have to?

Well see my thing is this. I don't want to carry around a bluetooth receiver or have to plug something up to my cigeratte lighter.
So I'm trying to find out how good TeleNav is compared to a company like TomTom.
Hey Jerryyyyy (I think I have enough "y"s) long time man. Yeah the speculation is that the 6800 will be compatible w/ the larger than 4gig micro sd cards as they come out.
