The worst phone I have experienced. HTC has tried to outdo the iphone but without understanding its functionality and the result is a complete mess. Leaving aside its hefty weight, these are the worst features:
a) When receiving an incoming call you need to slide a green "toutch bar" to the right or left, then press "accept" or "reject". If you get it slightly wrong, or don't look at the phone while doing it, the call is rejected. I have had six incoming (!) calls "rejected" this way, one after the other...
b) To call, you need to press a button at the top to turn on, then another button on the bottom to get the dial pad, then dial. Two more key presses than you'd need on "normal" phone.
c) You can dial numbers accidentally just by your finger brushing the surface when putting the phone down on your desk. This has happened several times.
The list goes on and on. I strongly recommend you avoid this phone at all costs.

After having this phone for around 4 months, I think its time to write a review, this was my first touchscreen phone, so after the initial excitement of touching the screen and the phone reacting subsided, I was left with a mediocre piece of hardware.
Windows Mobile 6.1 does not help the phone in any way shape or form, its slow and tends to freeze. Also, when using the very nice keypad to write a text or email, the signal tends to go, after you try sending the text, your left with a message saying the text cannot be sent - now any other phone, this isn't a problem because as soon as the signal has returned, the text message is sent automatically, with this phone, it is not the case, you must either re-write what you have previously written or forward the text, which equals alot of messing around with options.
The ringing tone and message tone aren't anything spectacular either, when playing music back, it seems louder than the ringtone, I have missed many calls because of this, 9/10 I only get the call because the phone vibrates. The alarm is also the same, a second of a beep 3 or 4 times and then it automatically selects snooze - not good for the heavy sleepers.
The phone does come with 3-4 pretty good apps, Youtube being the best - so long as your connected to mobile internet or a decent wi-fi service. Bluetooth is also included but seems quite slow for some reason.
I've given this a 6/10 as I'm finding it hard to write about any good points about the phone.

This is a pretty impressive albeit expensive bit of kit. It looks and feels well built and exudes quality. The screen is excellent and the keyboard a great benefit if you dont like using the stylus. The range of software and power user functionality is very good indeed.
However it is very bulky and heavy and as a phone handset it is rubbish. Whenever I am making calls I have difficultyu hearing and being heard even in strong reception areas. In particular if you move or tilt the handset away from your mouth to any degree you become effectively disconnected.
If you need the power of Windows Mobile in an industrial strength set you can't do better but if you just want great media capabilities, internet access and a good phone look elsewhere.

Overall this is definitely a good device. Lovely big touchscreen, great hardware, nice physical keyboard. TouchFlo 3D looks fantastic, and is well designed software.
Only two niggles are that the screen is very reflective so hard to view in bright light, and the software is a bit rough around the edges and crashes occasionally. Perhaps also a little expensive.
Overall good, 4 stars.

The OS:
Windows mobile 6.1 is a good attempt at chasing the iPhone revolution. I really hope they get the 6.5 version wrapped up and shipped soon with some innovative ideas.
The phone:
The good:-
It looks the part.
Great screen.
Brilliant QWERTY keyboard
Quite responsive to user input (the best i've seen yet on the Windows Mobile)
The connection to Wifi is fast
The Bad:-
Its a BRICK. its weighs a ton and doesn't sit as well in your pocket as other phones.
The USB phone jack.... what are you thinking HTC!!!!!!!!???????
Battery life is rubbish... don't go far without your charger.
