The auto-rotation sensor is ridiculously slow. It's pretty pathetic.

[mobileburn]

There is no auto-rotation sensor. It only goes to landscape mode when the keyboard is exposed, which is kinda dumb.

Great review .. will there be HD videos soon?

[mobileburn]

The videos are in 720p resolution already, but they will not be shot in widescreen, if that is what you mean. That would serve no purpose.

[jellotime91]

If it's 720p shouldn't youtube give you a "Watch in HD" option instead of "Watch in high quality"? Because it says that in the video optimization help section on youtube..

[mobileburn]

It has 720p vertical resolution, hence the high quality link. "HD" would just be 720p in widescreen, which adds nothing to the video in the case of phones, which typically are vertically oriented devices. It would just mean wasted bandwidth.

I want this..

[IrminsulRM]

As always a quick 3rd google search answered my questions. I have to use outlook I think to send such a large file. I will try that tonight and if it works I'll get back to you all as a public service ;) Wish me luck.

[IrminsulRM]

I have the email set up long ago and have been sending photos without trouble now I thought to try and send a video. Is it possible to do this or should I hook the phone up at my PC and download it that way instead? Thanks in advance. Btw, I want to send to hotmail, if that makes a difference and the file size in this instance is 2562k --I was also able to move the email from my outbox to my inbox but not via a server if you know what I mean so on my cellphone the file is there but not on the PC
