My first thought, I like icons, why get rid of nice, pretty icons in favor of boring green squares?? Anyone try one or plan on picking one of these phones up?

Ugh. Doesn't appeal to me, but I give them points for at least not aping the iPhone look, like every other manufacturer is doing.

I WAS going to if they offered them for Verizon this fall, but alas no CDMA version until 2nd half of 2011...

Well I had a couple windows mobile phones and used to love them. That was before I made the switch to an Iphone, now I doubt I will go back.

Agreed, I don't see these as being any temptation to move away from my iPhone 4.
