I just got my hands on a HTC-Athena from a friend. It has no branding on it so I think its a prototype. It doesnt seem to be crashing or anything so I'm going to use it as my primary device. I will miss you all at the Universal thread...Thanks for all your help!

Before you go... perhaps you could tell us why you think you will like the Athena more than the Universal?

I've looked at the specs of the Athena and whilst it looks like a nice device i'm not sure it's a Universal killer (especiallly with the AKU3.5/Crossbow Roms now available).

Also, i think i would miss the keyboard much too much...

I'd be interested to hear your thoughts now you can play with both...

Possibly because it's faster, has a far nicer screen for browsing, supports HSDPA, tons of storage, better camera, and is based on a much newer version of WM6?

Keyboard is still there for desk use, I don't know what it would be like to use holding it though, but I use my Uni in portrait mode most of the time I am away from a desk anyway, so I thin kI would also prefer the Athena.

We can fix that easily. I give you my Uni for your Athena :D

Screen is better - really?

Wow, that's saying something as the Universal screen is one of it's best features. Unlike you though, i tend to use the keyboard a lot when i'm out and about...

Com'n guys! You dont even know how much it weighs! Well it's okay with the loads of features, but com'n would that go for a nickle?

Uni has proven to be among the best for those who know its value ;)
Not to mention the size and attached keyboard. I guess you're gonna go around with the detachable keyboard and when needed, pull it from under your jacket, huh?

I guess it is not the time yet, just wait and hold your horses...
