The x is almost a damn tablet. I would rather a tablet at that size.

considering the thing is in a jacket pocket or on my desk, or in a holster on my belt (when I don't have a jacket or not riding) so size isn't bad... and it's not THAT much bigger than my droid IMO... but who knows... my mind may change when I see it.

the EVO is big but that screen is worth it IMHO. We were shooting video of my gf rollerblading this afternoon and for a phone the 720p is off the chain!

they've changed the claim... the screen isn't 720p... the phone will CAPTURE 720p... still not bad.

but yeah... I've got large hands and I'm cool with the extra real-estate of the screen

Thats the whole thing. i want to SEE them. I knew the minute that the Moto 1 was in my hands, that I didnt like the qwerty. Now from the pictures of the 2, the qwerty looks a ton better. Same goes with the X, it will need to be in my hands. But as far as I am concerned right now, my phone is in my pocket too much, and I don't have a desk at work.

to be honest... I NEVER use the keyboard. I rarely use the phone in landscape view

where as in my storm was rarely used in portrait. (and it a fucking piece of shit both ways)
