The videos were really insightful.  The only think that kinda annoys me is using the lock button to turn on/off the phone. I really do like the slider on the iphone and hopefully this can be fixed and moded in an update. I really do like the idea of still getting the call and you can slide up to answer or slide down to ignore. Sprint is really going to stick it to Apple & At&T

Thank you for letting me know about the videos!! i have been looking for details on the phone for weeks!! I have the HTC Touch but I'm just not feelin' it so I'm hoping the Instinct will do it for me!! Only downside so far for me is not having the dial pad for texting....anyone know if there is even an app to add that option to a phone?

Thanks for the vids.  The web browser looks pretty good but im really disappointed about no javascript it would be awesome to listen to pandora.com. It also sucks that it keeps defaulting to the mobile versions. Hopefully this is all fixed by june 20th or through user created apps.

the final review looks pretty good. Everything except for the screen can be fixed through software. And the only thing the screen cant do is multi touch.

Yeah, those darn kids and their Exchange servers, corporate level wireless security, and remote wiping.

I know how some people could see it that way, but I think that is a view of the past for most.  The view when ipods first came out, and all the teens wearing them around, leaving the white ear buds in saying "yeah, I have an ipod".

But I think that image has been gone for a while now that so many people young and old alike have ipods, and especially with the updates coming to the iphone firmware.

I do think the Instinct looks nice, but I don't think it looks any more classy or business oriented.
