LOL....I wonder how many people that come over from the Instinct will start their posts the way that you did! It's an awesome phone.

That's not a bug! It's a feature request...

I just wanna say that i spent more than a year fixing my Instinct and trying to find apps that worked. I even learned to program it. And believe me, its not easy. I lost my time and money with the Instinct... And yeah, when i saw that Google star thing and how accurate it is... it almost made me cry!

So how did you like the baby keyboard? When I played with it if was hard as hell to actually get it to space. It is not a single button but two separate ones. To get it to space properly you have to hit either edge of the button. Hitting the center does absolutly nothing. The screen was brighter than my hero but the brightness was turned all the way up. Wasn't that impressed overall.

One review said the top row of the keyboard is too close to the phone and it's a bit difficult to type. However, I do like the bigger screen but I bet you that next year 3.5 or so will become the standard.

i do agree that the numbers at the top are a little to close to the top, but i have fairly small fingers, so it didnt bother me as much as it would some one with larger hands.

Old Instinct user, new Hero user. Bought it on Friday because I made my Instinct have an accident. Wasn't sure and asked the Sprint guy about the return policy. He spent 15-20 minutes showing me a few features. Either he didn't use his phone much (said he had it for a month already,) or he just doesn't know what all is available. He didn't mention tethering or any of the small things I've already discovered. Can't put it down.

Picked up my Hero today, gave the wife the old instinct, can't wait to really start playing with it(it's getting a good charge right now). I did look at the Moment before I bought the Hero, and it was nice but I hated the keyboard, I kept hitting the c when I wanted x, like everything on the bottom was one character off for me, also it was hard for me to hit the space because of the lip at the bottom of the phone. I don't need a physical keyboard, nor do I want the extra bulk in the phone, so the Hero was a no brainer for me. Off to the sprint store to have my contacts switched

Just save your contacts to the sprint site, export them to excel etc and import them into Google and you will be all set as soon as you sign on to your new hero!

I went to do something on my old instinct yesterday, and couldn't believe how bad the screen looked, it was just so dark and dingy looking, I can't believe I used that thing for over a year...

Yeah, when I had the Instinct and the HD, I thought they were pretty nice phones and they are. However, the minute I used the Hero, I realized all of the things that I was missing on the Instincts. There is really no comparison. The Hero was also not as difficult to learn as I thought it would be. One thing that I really love is when I want the Hero to do something, I find that the phone can do it or there is an app for that...LOL:)
