I have the 700W, had it since January 19th. It's relatively stable, but it's really only good at email and phone calls. And even then, if it's got something it's doing in the background, the phone will just act goofy... going to sleep for unexplained reasons. I suspect the CPU is busy... because if you're patient, it will come back... but if you're expecting a call, or need to make a call when this happens? Forget about it. Pull the back, hit reset, and you're better off. I've actually considered getting my Dremel and drilling a hole in the back so I can hit reset with a stylus rather than having to pull the back off.
But, my friends with 650's aren't in any better shape. Haven't talked to anyone with a 700P. But, if they do come out with another Windoze version, it needs more horsepower.
