tilt That is debatable, but my vote is YES!

When I received the AT&T Tilt (HTC Kaiser), I got to toy with it for a day before I forwarded it on to our reviewer, Doug Smith. Doug did his thing and posted his review. Before I return it to AT&T, I decided to use it for a couple days.

In 1 hour last night, I did the following…

  • Installed SPB Pocket Plus 4 (Pocket Plus is the 1st application I add to any device)
  • Installed Soti Pocket Explorer(out of habit)
  • Installed Telenav
  • Added 800mb worth of MP3s (Most of the hour spent on this)
  • Installed some games from PDA Mill and Astraware,
  • Set up exchange server and synced all my appointments, emails and contacts. (Sherweb)
  • And finally configured the Today Screen to my liking.

If the Tilt was a car, it would be a Porshe. It’s lighting fast. This is the most responsive PPC Phone i’ve used to date. Application installations take seconds and there is ZERO lag when navigating the menus.

I then paired the TILT with my Motorola HT-820 Stereo Bluetooth Headphones. Called Jack Cook, listened to some Disturbed and Linkin Park (Seeing them live Friday!), and made a couple more calls. I am really digging the Tilt.

Back in January 2007, I had the opportunity to see the Kaiser in a closed room meeting and fell in love with the tilt screen then. I used the i-mate Kjam for so long, that I am so used to the design, but I have been using the Treo 750 for a while now so I have to get reacquainted with the slide out keyboard.

    ok, i need some help here: I am finding my Treo 750 just too undependable, too slow, and too many problems. In addition to phone, I need 3 items on my PDA: extensive contact list (over 2000 entries), extensive calendar, and extensive Notes or Memos. Will the ATT Tilt be the best alternative for me? I found the earlier Treos acceptable, but made the jump to the 750 so that I could escape being tied to a Palm-only technology. Now that I have my data in outlook, which pda do I use?

    I have to agree. It is fine phone. I have had mine for two weeks and my only complain is the small screen.
