- I happened to be in a VZ store today and saw a Moto Pro. It is a nice phone but not a BB.
The phone did not feel as robust or have the quality build feel as a BB. I think that it will sell well
For non BB adicts but it misses the mark for Crack Heads.IMHO

I don't recall seeing any terrible reviews on android devices. BB build quality has been declining over the past few years (c)storm,tour,torch complaints.11-12-10 04:39 PMLike 0

- SevereDeceitSDThe Droid Pro feels solid and the keyboard is exactly like my Bold's keyboard. I know many of you are dedicated BlackBerry users, I was for years as well. My Motorola Droid 2 honestly does everything better. Like I've said before, everthing that I wished my BlackBerry would do, Android does it. Flat out...11-12-10 04:52 PMLike 0
- Well the keyboard that I used on the Pro felt mushier thasn the Bb. It was not bad just different. It is not exactly like a BB keyboard but not bad either.

"flagship" 9700? Really? Maybe come into this decade buddy. The 9700 is old news and no longer relevant, there's bigger and better BB's out now. No matter how much that hurts your ego it's true...11-12-10 05:20 PMLike 0
- I was looking for more of a WOW when I handled the PRO. As nice as it is I will stay with my trusty Bold and Torch.

- Did the keyboard compare to the Bold 9000 keyboard or the 9700 keyboard? Or somewhere in between (size wise)?
I have the 9000 now and recently picked up a Captivate...loved Android and the big screen was great but did not like it as a phone. I took it back and got the torch...terrible all around, especially after the captivate. I was hoping for an updated 9000 but this Moto Pro looks like it just what I need.11-12-10 06:03 PMLike 0 - You're probably right about the "hard cores" (that's why their called hard cores. ), but what about those business professionals that aren't married to Blackberry and are going into this purchase completely open-minded. Do you think that they would chose this phone, or say, the 9650?11-12-10 06:11 PMLike 0
- The keyboard is nice, I liked it. It has a softer feel than the BB and was nice to use. It is about the size of the VZ Bold keyboard. Overall the phone is nice just does not have the BB feel. I guess that I am so used to BB, it is hard to change unless it is exactly like a BB which it is not. The idea is great about the Pro, I just wish that BB would release the Dakota/Magnum or whatever it is. I like the form factor of the Pro but want it to be a BB. I am using a Torch and really really love it, wish it was on VZ. Torch is a great phone, Come on RIM throw us a bone.11-12-10 06:28 PMLike 0

- Tucker, that is a tough decision between the Pro and the 9650. If the 9650 had a larger screen and running 6.0 and possibly touch screen like the Torch, they would have a winner like the rumored Dakota/Magnum. The Moto Pro is a nice phone and should do well for business or casual. I just like the BB more.11-12-10 06:33 PMLike 0
- The screen and browser were fine, no lag or anything. This Pro is a nice phone it does what it claims to do I just prefer the BB. If I had not heard of BB or never used one, I would jump on it because I like the larger screen and keyboard, both of which are very nice.11-12-10 06:35 PMLike 0
- FjT, the keyboard is somewhere between the 9000 and 9700 like the size of the VZ Bold. It was nice just a little softer feel than the BB. I did like the keyboard. I have owned both Droids and the Droid X and the Desire and for me and the kind of work that I do which is sales, I would get the Pro. Having a BB style keyboard is critical for me. Since I own a Torch and a VZ Bold right now I am not really in the market for anything until the Dakota/Magnum comes out.11-12-10 06:41 PMLike 0
- SevereDeceitSDThis is what I recommend, honestly. You have VZW, you have up to 30 days to use the device and trade it in for something different. It will be a change at first, the one constant in the world is change. You never know until you try...11-12-10 07:38 PMLike 0
