Some General Questions - Coming from WebOS

[jedisrus]

So it looks like I'll be changing over to the Android OS once the Evo is released. There were a few things that disappointed me with WebOS that I think aren't "problems" in Android. I am hoping for some clarification/confirmation.

1. I can't search the calendar on the Pre. It looks like you can do that in Android. Is this the case?

2. I really miss my Home Screen from my Mogul which showed the time and upcoming appointments. No way to get this on the Pre. Is it native in a HTC Android phone or at least available as a widget?

3. Being able to transfer files via Bluetooth to another phone. Can't do it on my Pre! Can I do it on the Evo?

Thanks for any insight you can give me. I am looking forward to being a part of the Android community!

1 - I've never done, tried really quick before answering and didn't seem as though I could. May just be an app for that.

2 & 3 - You'll have no problems here and you'll be able to at least get a widget and the Android system is like a backup hard drive for me. I don't see BT transfer being stock (could be), but I know for sure there are apps for this.

Thanks for the reply. For number 1 I thought I saw it as part of the presentation on the Evo. I'll have to see if I can find it again.

Yes, you are right. Sense UI has it. So Incredible and EVO should have it. I have a Nexus One, so that comes w/o Sense UI.
