 Unlike other HTC designs, the Touch design used to make the Verizon Wireless XV6900 is actually growing on us, especially as we find hardware that does a better job responding to the gestures and input that drives the overlay. The XV6900 looks great, outside and in, and Windows Mobile users who know what they are getting into will have a great time with the calling and scheduling features, as long as there isn't too much typing involved. Instead of coming up short in the multimedia department compared to Sprint's Touch, Verizon Wireless should have run with that ball and created a vastly improved experience, perhaps including their trump card in V Cast Mobile TV. Instead, media playback and Web browsing were both below average, and tethered modem support was buggy enough to scare us away. Release: April 2008. Price: $300.
Pros: Nice new colors on the shell and interface. Responsive touchscreen, works best of any Touch-style device we've tried.
Cons: Onscreen keyboard not great for input. Lacks IM clients, multimedia services. Tethered modem support wonky.
