I love the EVO Shift :)

This phone hauls some serious ass! I got 1599 on quadrant and 34.01 on Linpack. I'm super happy I bought this phone instead of the monsterous EVO. Soo far everything is absolutely amazing.

I don't think the EVO is monsterous at all. Robustly built and flatter to comparison to other devices. I guess the EVO size is subjective.

I like the EVO shift, but prefer the EVO.

I am really loving it also

Got my Shift yesterday. Got it all set up.

Love it. Fast, compared to my Hero. Fast period!

I think the Evo is too big. The Shift is the right size for me.

Waiting for my Seidio case now.

Loving it.

Me too..... I LOVE this phone!! Been a Palm user for 10+ years, but this phone is just fantastic!

How is the keyboard? Haven't had a chance to try out one in the store myself, but was curious how the keyboard stacks up.

I have been a palm user for 5+ years myself and im still trying to decide on the EVO or the EVO shift. Both look like good phones.

I have the EVO. Looking at the shift for the wife. She wants a full keyboard.

Played with one at a Sprint store Saturday. I must say it is a very snappy phone.
Was very impressed. Wife liked it as well. Probably be picking one up for her in the next few weeks.

Screen changes did seem more fluid than my EVO.
I am happy to see another quality built HTC phone on Sprint.

Kinda hard to rate as I find keyboard to be more of a personal call more than anything else. One man's trash is another's treasure.

Personally I think it's perfect for people that are fast typist. There is minimal key resistance, but enough feedback to let you know a key has been pressed. The spacing feels perfect for my slightly above average hand size. Part of me kinda of wishes their were a dedicated number row on the top like the Epic, but I feel that may make it either a little too cramped or too big.

For what it's worth, my girlfriend with much smaller hands also loves the keyboard....go figure. She's typed on everything from BB's, Palm Pre, and several text slider style phones. This is her favorite so far.

I played with the Shift at my local Radio Shack - it looks very neat, although I'm so in love with the screen size of my EVO, and really like the FFC.

I am in love with this phone. It has been off the charger for over 12 hours and I still have 75% battery left!!! I had wifi on all day, played Angry Birds for a bit, and did a little surfing on the internet, so I really didn't use it much, but... there's no way my Hero would have had any battery left with even that light usage. Tomorrow will be a normal usage day for me and I can't wait to see how much battery will be left at the end of the day.
