Just compare one feature to another and you'll see the huge difference (And I didn't talk about the comfort and user-friendliness - also quite big differences)

The mobile market has just gone downhill, ever since the iPhone came out it's all about touch-screen this, virtual keyboard there and iPhone like design that, whatever happened to simple designs that involved buttons?

I hate touch-screen phones, it's nothing but fingerprint hell

another thing lacking is the bluetooth. i want something that i can share files/sync with my pc via bluetooth. 3.5mm jack will make the deal a lot more sweeter.

What the hell? No physical keyboard? I'm sick of all these iPhone-wannabe's / look-a-likes with their touch screen this (Though I don't mind it if it's not the main thing of the phone) and their similar design that and their virtual keyboard madness... Is physical so wrong these days?

Sure it might add bulk but it's much better than getting your screen all smugged up to hell...

These days, IMHO, smartphones have to have atleast 3 features: physical keyboard, WiFi connection & copy-paste function.
HTC you fail, sit.
