"When it first debuted, the Motorola Q was undoubtedly a knockout. The Windows Mobile device was sleek and sexy, unlike any other smart phone before it, and generally delivered on performance. However, when you're sitting there at the top, there's always going to be someone who wants to knock you down, and let's just say the T-Mobile Dash is ready for a fight."
Kris, I'm not sure but I think we thought of this format first! The Dash frenzy continues and I'm getting a little tired of this unabashed love fest. I mean come on now people. It's just a phone!

I am telling you, Dash is the coolest. 
Battery life alone for me is the biggest plus point. It feels great in the hand.
The other big difference is the AKU 3.0. I have been using WinMo 5.0 from the early 2125 version to Q to push email update, but this build of WinMo by far the most stable and seems to be a bit zippy. I feel that the Dash is more responsive than the Q even though Q has a faster processor.
Love the Dash, but Moto Q Norman looks tempting.  |

Yes, we did but remember how we broke out into a fight: you were in favour of the Q and I of course liked the Dash. Then we called in Mike to break the fight and he started gloating about the i320.

In my opinoun, the Q is last among the 3 main QWERTY's. I would rank the Dash at the top, but only because it has Quad band, and a better battery life. The poor JOGGR implementation is a big minus (even if you can hack it back to normal).

From a PDA standpoint, the Dash comes out ahead of the Q IMO, especially with the WiFi, which is huge. But, in the end, it comes down to the phone. Verizon's EVDO beats anybody's EDGE and for me, that's the deciding point.
Now, if the Dash comes in Verizon or Sprint EVDO flavors, then we are talking  |
