Boy Genius Report Previews Sprint's Touch
Posted by Janak Parekh in "ARTICLE" @ 09:00 AM
"We hit up the original HTC Touch a few months back, and for the most part, our original conclusion still applies: Windows Mobile is not made for devices with no buttons. Just navigating around this thing is a chore sometimes, and while HTC has stepped it up by adding a "20 key" keyboard that works like T9, it’s definitely frustrating to do anything that requires more than 3 letters."
As always, the Boy Genius Report gets its paws early on the Touch, and gives some honest feedback. One of the clear things they point out is that WM, by and large, is still not very adapted for touch-based gestures. At the same time, the device is clearly svelte and good-looking, as the comparison shot above shows. Are there any Touch owners in the audience that agree (or disagree) with their summarization?
