E63 to X8

After 2 years and 3 months, I've finally replaced my trusted Nokia E63. I was so confused with which to buy, so it took me around 2 hours to just choose. After a week of using my new phone, I can say that I made the right decision though I never thought I'd ever buy a touchscreen phone. I was so used with the QUERTY keys of my E63 that I'm still adjusting to this touchscreen technology. 

Oh, did I say replace? Sorry, wrong term. I haven't replaced it - yet. Not yet since it's still good even if it's showing signs of its old age from time to time. And by the way, the new phone that I got is a Sony Ericsson Xperia X8.
So far, I'm loving it with its Android 2.1 OS, and its touchscreen is the best I've experienced so far after trying out my officemates' LG and iPhone. I'm still exploring the Android technology though, especially with the different applications. I'm loving it but it's also kinda sad that it doesn't have a group feature like my previous phone where you can group your contacts. It was kinda fun sending group messages to family and friends, and it was like send to this group in one send - like a send to all feature though it's not sent to all, just those who are members of groups that you chose beforehand. 

Aside from the few complaints I have, I'm still loving it so far and I hope it will not disappoint me. I'm even thinking of selling my E63 soon - if I will be totally satisfied with the X8. I chose it over the Xperia Mini-Pro and Blackberry Bold 8250 so I hope I really made the right choice. Checking online, there have been mostly positive reviews about it. Time will tell - soon.
