I have a Verizon Eris now for few weeks. I just upgraded to 2.1 and it's been better, but the total feel is not as good as the 15 min I spent with iPhone (latest model).

Eris is cool phone but buttons respond slowly. I know it's not the Droid or Incredible but it shouldn't be so laggy. I now have pinch/zoom but it's so NOT smooth. Feels like graphics stutter. The turn by turn NAV is the best part. But I'm coming from Windows Mobile with Verizon Touch and it sucked!!! This touch keyboard is much better than WinMo but iPhone is still better.

The Eris has no help on the phone itself and it took me a while to figure it out. The iPhone I had mastered in the store in 10 min.

I'm stuck for two years and depressed about it since I want the new iPhone, even though have not seen it.


Take that phone back tomorrow. You have 60 days, I think. I had an Eris for about a week too. I just sent it back and bought a 3GS on Craigslist. You could even trade it in for the Incredible, which you'll be much happier with.
