Getting started, Blueangel or Wizard?

[Macleesh]

Hello all,

I intend to buy my first (used) XDA soon, choice is between a BA or Wizard.
I prefer the look of the BA and it's larger screen but the Wizard seems to be more popular judging by the number of threads in their respective areas.

I would welcome peoples views on the relative merits of each, particularly with regard to performance & reliability out of the box, and what is possible after modification.

Thanks

Macleesh

The Wizard is much newer.

Well, the question really is about what you need...

BA has larger screen, faster processor, 128mb ram but it drains your battery faster than wizard, plus it has uncomfortable keypad (thats just my oppinion). And of course the size of BA is much bigger than wizard's.

Unless you're really strapped for cash, get the Wizard. I've had both, and the Wizard wins hands down. Also, the Wizard will be much easier to upgrade -- look how long it took to bring WM6 to the BlueAngel.
