    Even as i have an android now (and man i've been doing A LOT of flashing), once in a while there are still problems.
    My phone is rooted so the power-down menu now comes with a nice reboot option (reboot,recovery,bootloader). But instead of doing that, i head straight to a battery pull
    Even when you switch to different phones, there are still some blackberry habits that you maintain. Tell me some of your blackberry habits :-)

    The PlayBook's swiping gestures have ruined me for any other tech. I try to swipe everything from the bezel. Or try to touch-scroll my laptop screen.

    On the iPhone, I find myself trying to use the Home button as a trackpad.

    Lol +1! I try to swipe my wifes Android tab and my 9700, 9800, and I have tried to do it on her L900, which for some things works... Kind of but not always what I wanted.

    The new CB major addiction will be gestiures! We shall rely on our trust keyboards and guestures to get stuff done!

    You would not believe what went on when i first got my android. I felt it buzz in my pocket and i would check for the red notification light but wouldn't see it so i just thought i had "blackberry illusion" Urban Dictionary: blackberry illusion THen at the end of the day i checked my phone and found i had so many notifications!! It was then i realized that my phone doesn't even have LED lol

    My biggest problem - I asked Kevin if he noticed this when he went to Android during his time with it - is double tapping the space bar at the end of a sentence! With the Android keyboards it means you agree to the suggested next word - and gives me more grief than I care to admit. Can't blame the fact that you can't teach an old dog new tricks on the GNote

    I know this is a little off topic but does anyone feel those phantom vibrations of your phone when it isn't even in your pocket?!

    Double tapping the space key inserts a full stop on Windows Phone 7.5. I did not need to learn anything new in that regard.

    I had the same problem with SwiftKey, but I found out that you can disable it in tge settings. Now space bar just inserts a space and double tapping puts in a period.

    Another bb habit of mine: i keep shutting down applications, trying to make sure I have no more than three running at the same time even though it can handle more easily. It's a good habit anyway, since it helps battery life.
