I quite pleased with this phone. I was basically in the market to get the most computer-like handset Sprint had available. I use it for internet and applications WAY more than I do actual calling, so I have unlimited data transfer, but use less than 200 minutes per month.

Anyway... it hasn't crashed once since I got it a couple of months ago. Frozen a few times, but I'm completely to blame... 2-3 tabs going in Opera and multiple apps running at once will do that.

I have a sneaking suspicion it might not be as sturdy as a more basic handset, but I have a pretty serviceable Samsung A900 to fall back on if this one bitches out on me. That phone crashed ALL THE TIME on the net, but worked very well for calls, messaging, texting, etc.
Didn't I recommend looking at HTC when you were thinking of buying a QWERTY phone a few months ago? The slide out keyboard is excellent because it allows for bigger keys than Blackberry-like devices, while allowing for a really small handset because it slides shut.

I was thinking of the S710 or S730, but they're all pretty nice, and that looks like a more advanced version of both.

Anyway, don't worry too much if it's crashing or freezing now and then. I know from reports of previous HTC models that they tend to get more stable when new firmwares are rolled out. It's possible HTC release new models a bit too soon really.

I almost bought a HTC S730 until I realised my partner was getting me an N95.

Same here regarding usage. I'd go so far as saying my N95 has replaced both my laptop computer and cameras (video and still) in many situations.
