• I have had the instinct since it was released for the Sprint "early adapters", and I am a daily user of an iTouch. This gives me a great basis to compare. The feature list for the instinct is great, but the obvious lack of wifi was a big disappointment. However, I would most likely not use it as a wifi device as the web experience is far from ideal.
  
  The features on the instinct are put together in a very intuitive way. From the contact manager to texting the instinct feels natural to use. Call quality has been great, and the virtual keyboard works well. The itouch keyboard is far superior to the instinct, but the instincts attempt still works better than most.
  
  Third party apps for the instinct are what you would expect: very weak. The games/applications just do not have the same wow factor as apps for the iTouch, but again they work better than most.
  
  I have enjoyed the instinct greatly, and often refer to it as the best phone I have ever owned. It has the wow factor, works great, and is cheap as hell. However, if I was not locked into a Sprint contract I would chose the iPhone each and every time. There is simply no comparison.
  
  Nice work Sprint. If the iPhone did not exist you would have created the best phone available to the US market. In reply to: "How's your Instinct?"
