I was all about waking up and heading to the Verizon Wireless store to check it out and get one, but then rationalized that I should probably wait a while so others can deal with any bugs and issues to get smoothed out.

The screen smudges easily, but I'm getting an invisible shield put on tomorrow. The phone has a nice sturdy weight to it. Audio is very clear on it, both speakerphone, music and earpiece.I'll post more about it after using it more.
The turn by turn nav is pretty awesome. It comes up with streetview when you arrive. The voice is just something to be desired.

Marshy where are you getting your shield? The place I went to didn't have them. I love mine, posting from it also. The keyboard is nice but the web browsing in the side mode is taking me some time to get used to. Have not tried the nav yet.

I played with one today, and honestly I was a little dissapointed. It doesn't really WOW me and the phone itself felt like it was made of burmese recycled cardboard. The keyboard slid action was less than to be desired and the general layout was uneventful. I would say it is about 100% better than the last android software wise but I think the motorola really holds it back.
