I must also chime in - the Advantage rocks! I pre-ordered mine on Amazon.com. I was one of those early adopters that got the pre-release ROM and had to flash the production one. That was minor and HTC customer support was outstanding.

This device is really targeted at power users that had Axim X50/51's. Yeah, I was one of those guys. I kept modding my Ax and wishing that Dell would come out with a follow-on device. Dell faultered, but HTC came through.

Having earned my wings on the X50v, configuring my X7501 was a breeze. I've had it well over a year and NEVER had to hard reset the thing. I have it packed with software, music, videos. It kicks butt with my slingbox. My old travel mouse and folding keyboard work flawlessly.

One of the guys on my job recently commented that he's never seen me keep a device as long as my Advantage. I hadn't thought about it, but he's right. Over the past 5 or 6 years, I haven't kept a cell phone or PDA for more than a few months. I've always gone for the newest, coolest, most powerful gadget I could find. That's why I still have my X7501. It's what the iPhone will be when it finally grows up.

I use my Advantage EVERY day. It has never let me down. The Advantage just works. It's a powerhouse. It's reliable. That's it.
