You're absolutely right about the Evo's screen. The screen color and brightness look great when you're just looking at it. When you compare it against the mighty Samsung Galaxy S and iPhone 4 screens, as far as color and resolution - sure it loses -, but the screen in and of itself is absolutely beautiful; not to mention huge. As far as it being too big, I really don't think that's an issue and I was one who was genuinely concerned with that before I purchased it. The Epic has basically the same dimensions despite having a smaller screen, so there's no advantage there. The Evo is slim enough that it still fits in your pocket just fine even with the large overall size. I will say that it is hard coming from a real keyboard to an extent. I went from an LG Rumor, to a Palm Pre, and then finally made the switch to software keyboards. I have some of the biggest sausage fingers in the land, and I can type just as fast and accurate now that I've gotten used to it. Drunk-texting is near impossible, but I'm not going to blame HTC on that one... http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/tongue.gif
