Product Description
The AT&T 8925 Tilt has several features never before seen on a Windows Mobile device. The first is the aforementioned flip-up, tilted screen (seen left), which configures the Tilt a lot like a notebook when the unit's keyboard is exposed. Another new feature is a 3MP digital camera, which is the highest-resolution camera available on a Windows Mobile Smartphone (touchscreen

I just upgraded to an iPhone. I had the tilt device for two years, it was a good phone. I enjoyed being on the 3G network. I also used it to tether as a modem for my laptop, no issues there, great for visiting clients at Starbucks and not having to pay for internet. Really nice not having to fumble around with setup on that tethering. I used to watch youtube via player application, before youtube finally made their own plugin. I would check out Fifth Gear, top gear, etc episodes during my lunch hour, it was good fun, espcially with the tilt screen while I was eating. After two years the battery needed replacing, I never did, but it sure needed a new one. The charge was only lasting a couple hours. I dropped it twice, and had the screen replaced once for $100. The time the screen needed replacing it was thrown from the second story of my apartment, the phone is pretty durable. Most phones would have smashed to pieces.
What can it do that an iPhone can't you ask?
* Tether as a modem
* Internet Access with AT&T via 3G for $20/month NOT $30 like on the iphone
* Full keyboard
* SMS messaging, (add pictures to text msgs)
* Run office applications (word, powerpoint, etc)
* Screen tilt
* Create ringtones on the fly by choosing a song and right clicking (sweet)
* No I-Tunes or Qucktime malware
What does an iPhone do better?
* Larger screen
* Better battery life
* Backlight auto adjusts brightness, saves battery
* Shuts off faster, no buttons on front that accidentally turn it on
* Looks better (impress your friends, the tilt looked like a brick)
* Better support if/wehn it breaks, at least implied
* More applications
* Larger storage up to 32gb with 3GS
* Ipod / music work much better, easier to use etc
* Voicemail stores on the device
* GPS device with compass can tell you which way to turn not just your location
* Thinner, lighter
All in all I am planning on keeping the iPhone after having the tilt for 2 years. I still love the tilt though... nothing wrong with that phone at all.

As the title suggests, I consider this Smartphone to be a good work horse.
A previous poster listed a few features on this device, I've expanded some of the detail on that and added some other info.
* Tether as a modem - very helpful and less expensive than buying a standalone aircard.
* Full keyboard - there is a soft keyboard you can type on without having to slide out the keyboard everytime you need to type something.
* Can open, edit, save Microsoft office files (word, powerpoint, etc) (on an iPhone you can only view not edit).
* Screen tilts - helpful to reduce glare
* Create ringtones on the fly by choosing a song and right clicking - without additional cost
Helpful tips for Windows Mobile
Periodically Windows Mobile devices experience registry corruption. The best resolution is to perform a hard reset on the device clearing out the memory and essentially freshly building the device. By doing these periodic resets (in my experience 2 times a year is necessary), the device remains responsive and less buggy.
There is a lot of functionality built into the Tilt that is handy. It is one of the better Windows devices for navigation. Using a bluetooth GPS bug the device can do quite well guiding without the necessity of having to buy a singletasking handheld navigation system.

most of these 1 2 and 3* reviews are outrageously ignorant. i didnt even buy mine NEW, i got it used. with custom rom and wm 6.1 Pro. i have only had MINOR problems. more of software issues at most. the battery only lasts a few hours at most "its a old used battery" plan to upgrade to the 2800mah extened TYTN II battery here on amazon. wifi works great, bluetooth works fine. skyfire browser works miracales with its FULL FLASH support. can chat via web live via yahoo aim msn ETC youtube plays fine VIA WEB not app. calls sound great. speakerphone is good. camera is FAIR. autofocus works great but color's are very distorted. deffinitly not a 3.0MP camera. my sidekick 2008 took better quaility far photos. but for close ups of small things that need the "macro" touch. it gets the job done. plays music and videos great via windows media player built in. speaker is good enough. fairly loud. touchscreen has 0 problems. minor issues with responding on time while running mulitasks at once. ran up to 12 programs in the background and phone still responded well to commands. overall i give this phone 4/5* its not the phone its the user. im very tech savvy and know what im doing. given the device you have ISNT DEFECTIVE... never had any problems with mine and i dont think i will ever have any with it. yes the iphone may LOOK and FEEL better, but come on, who can actually TYPE QWERTY on a touch screen as well as an actuall sliding qwerty keyboard? have the best of both, touch screen AND full keyboard with WIFI & 3G makes this phone one of my favorites i have ever owned.
