8525 or 8925

[liquidcaffeine]

I just bought an 8525 and realised I could have gotten the 8925 for less instead. Should I keep the 8525 or trade it within the 30 day window for the 8925?

If you decide you don't want to do it. Do it anyway and I will trade you my 8525 for the 8925 :-)

Trade it in. Get the 8925. Its better and cheaper. What more convincing do you need. :)

I just faced this same decision, and decided to stay with the 8525. Here's why:

1. The 8525 is a known device - lots of fixes for the things that don't work. The 8925 is unknown, and there have been lots of complaints without a lot of solutions to follow them up.

2. The 8925 only has the offical WM6 ROM - for the 8525 I can get several different WM6 ROMs to suit what I need.

3. I don't see the built in GPS as a big win. The extra memory would definitely be nice, but not worth the frustration considering #1.

In the end, it came down to just being happy with the unit I have - it does everything I need, and it does it well.
