Got rid of my torch and got the 9780. I'm loving it right now but I do miss the big screen on the torch haha. Oh well, it was worth the change.

I ordered the Seidio Innocase II case online. Hope I get it soon.

Which firmware are you guys running on?

359. It's still buggy but better than the factory loaded 285. There are some build quality issues with the 9780 seems the biggest one is the double keypress (repeating letters) so make sure the keyboard is working flawlessly otherwise exchange it if you can.

So why is everyone making the switch from 9800 to 9780?

I currently have a 9700 OS6 and I'm debating whether or not its worth it to make the switch to either of these phones.

^If you have some extra cash and you're able to get a decent amount for your 9700 I'd say its worth the switch, autofocus in video mode on the 9780 was a huge plus for me

depends on if you like candybar style VS slider phone
also depends on if you like touch screen or not
basically comes down to personal preference, if you want the bigger screen on the 9800 or not
other than physically, it's pretty much the same OS and such

When the phone is double inputting keyboard entries when you only hit the selected key once.

Some 9780s don't have this problem

According to some people on Crackberry, its apparently a hardware issue and is common with phones that are made in MEXICO4. Hopefully it's not, mine is from MEXICO4 and it happens to me as well. Almost wiped out my device cause of it -_-

Feels like a bold 9000 which I like but not as bulky. The case itself is awesome, dropped it once while getting out of the car and only had to clean dirt off of it.
