I got to play with the 8550
Only had it for about 5 minutes. Did not make any calls. All i have to say is that if this thing is not buggy it's going to make a great phone.
When you press the clear or Speakerphone button you get a nice vibration in the phone.
Directional pad is more i-pod like that you can actually roll your finger around it and move through the menus.
From what i can tell the UI is the same as previous choclates.
I think this ones going to be a keeper. 😁
Oh and by the way form factor is great. Very small. the spring action on the slide is very sturdy. and it has very rounded edges. Makes it nice to hold in your hand.

I agree. I got to play with this phone also and wow, what a phone. The send/end keys are in normal places. The camera doubles up as the stopper on the slide so you don't slide it down too far. And the keypad is much better than that touch sensative one. You roll it around and push in the center to select things. You can also push in the edges for up/down/left/right too.
