I was finally able to get my wife to upgrade from her Blackberry Tour. It had the keyboard she wanted, and it was free with the RS deal. I should have been more suspicious of this being a used phone when I saw the Vegan Tab wallpaper. It wasn't until later we found the previous owners gmail address on it. We are going to take it back, for at least an exchange this weekend.
So, on with the gripes:
Dialpad disappears and screen shuts off, after touching one number when trying to retrieve VM's from the home phone. Searched in all the settings for Dialpad time out, but have not found any. Don't have any problems doing this operation from my Fascinate.
Touch Screen sensitivity: Seems very, very touchy! She's launched 3 programs just sliding out the keyboard, LOL. I thought a case may help keep her fingers off the screen, but it's been minimal. Also tried to get her into the habit of shutting off the screen when she is done with a task, time will tell on this one.
Lag: Phone seems to lag lot, even compared to my Fascinate!
This is all I can think of right now, hopefully swapping to a new one will fix some of these issues.
Any suggestions appreciated.

Update: We ended up taking the Stratosphere back. She didn't like the bulk, sensitivity and there was a misunderstanding with the RS manager about cancelling the line we used the upgrade from. So back to the BB for now.
