Ok I was finally able to get my hands on the new Samsung Instinct and walked away not impressed. I played with it for a 10 minutes and found the EVDO network to be slow and even unresponsive at times requiring me to start over...ugh.
The phone touch screen is more about pressure touch than just touch and slide, which isn't too bad once you get used to it, but still not as nice as the iPhone.
TV quality is low and because of the slower network, the video lagged and froze to often.
I found the screen size just OK and the Applications took up a lot of the screen space over the Application window.
It doesn't have WiFi, so you can count that option out.
It doesn't support External Downloadable Apps such as Googles Mobile Maps, Search, etc.
So I'm left waiting for the phone that's going to meet all my needs still.
iPhone - Thumbs down (AT&T stick you for everything plan, no stereo bluetooth, no 3D view GPS with voice, no SD card slot, no MMS, no VOIP via WiFi connection, no video camera.)
Samsung Instinct - Thumbs down (Sprint slow / unresponsive EVDO network, no external Apps, no WiFi, poor screen resolution.)
So I'm waiting for the Spring when Android phones will start showing up with all the carriers.
