John Biggs — you are awesome. I just found your blog while researching the 8525. Your unheard voice spoken in your thoughtful words is amazing and intriguing. Leaves the reader wanting more. You could write about the crap found in a pig’s toenails and make it sound interesting. Your words speak volumes. Where else can we hear your wisdom? Let me know, please (my real email is HandleWithClaire@aol.com). I’ll share you with all my friends and tell them to TURN IT UP.

Thanks.

Just upgraded to the 8525 from the 8125. The 8125 was great, however, the application start-ups were extremely slow. This is very problematic for an individual as myself who requires QUICK access. Let’s see, the 8525? This device is definetly a device to purchase. The streaming of television via Slingbox is unbelievable. Believe me, the 8125 and its ability is truly DIALUP vs Broadband on the 8525. The clarity is beyond words. We are truly in the 3rd generation finally! My five year says, WOW – technology (go figure)There is no comparison. That alone is what sold me, being I spend a lot of time on the road. 3G is very solid and being a network guy, I hope to become apart of the Cingular family and really grow with them in this regard! The downlink speeds are amazingly quick!

Windows Mobile has issues, and Palm OS is dead. Symbian is not on enough QWERTY phones. Alas.

I’ve been testing an 8525 for a couple weeks now and I have to say that I love it…but not enough to give up my 8125. Performance is better, 3G rocks and the click-wheel is a very welcome addition, but HTC’s decision to change from miniSD to microSD storage and eliminate the 2.5″ mini headphone jack and reduce the size just enough that it no longer fits in my ProClip mount means that upgrading is going to cost me about $200 more than just cost of the phone itself. Maybe when I sell my company and have the extra disposable income, but for now I will still happily keep my 8125.
