I never used Grafiti and cant comment on that on my Pro. Touch Screen, YES Stylus, YES WIFI, YES Internet Sharing Yes and Yes. You can use an on board program to share the internet via tethering, I think most WM devices do this. I have used it and it works. I also use a program called WMWifiRouter, it makes the device a hot spot for WiFi. Able to view calendar easily and while on phone, YES there's a button on the front of the phone for calendar. 3G - Sprint runs CDMA EVDO-Rev A plenty fast for me. Cant say about the GSM version, sorry. I use Microsoft Exchange Server for my work email / contacts / calendar and its easy to keep it updated. Add on stuff? Just anything WM 6 or 6.1 compatable will run on it.

While I much prefer the Palm OS, I thought perhaps the Pro might have something to offer. I'm looking for something to tide me over until I can afford and find a GSM Pre: - Grafiti or something similar, - Which also means a touch screen - And a stylus - Wifi - Internet Sharing (tethering) - Able to view my calendar while on the phone, and EASILY FIND IT. - 3G preferred but not essential - Decent camera preferred, but not essential - A calendar as smart and easy as the Palm - Ability to store my large calendar on a memory card - Ability to add on programs such as the defunct Pocket Quicken, shopping list, multiple lists, Wifi-to-go, a call gatekeeper, etc. -- Be well, Toni Roberts Atlanta/Marietta/Smyrna/Vinings Blog: http://touchprints.blogspot.com/ On Sat, Apr 10, 2010 at 4:38 PM, Patrick - Sprint Repair < [email protected]> wrote: > > > Only you can decide that since the level of awkwardness is determined by > you. > > I own a Palm Pro and love it.
