Is Tom's going to start doing more mobile reviews? If so Hooray! Tom's used to have so many great reviews and nitty gritty hardware articles. I have been coming here since 1996 and have seen many changes here.
I like except no micro-SD and user removable battery. I know it allows a more compact solid feeling phone but it is a deal killer for me. I want to be able to back-up my phone to the Micro-SD card, then pull it out and install a custom ROM, then swap it back in, afterwards. And pulling the battery is sometimes the only way to reset a device if it locks up. I know a lot of iPhone and iTouch users who have had to wait out till their battery died because it locked up and would not reset manually.
