However, the sun came out before my appointment and revealed the T-Mobile Shadow so I now had a choice to make at the local T-Mobile store. I went on 31 October, the release day for the Shadow, and the T-Mobile store in Seattle was packed. I checked out both the brown and green Shadow, as well as the Curve again, and a few minutes later I walked out of the store with a green T-Mobile Shadow. I have 14 days to decide if I am going to stick with the Shadow or go back and get the Curve"</em></p><p><img alt="" border="1" src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/500/spt/auto/1194261363.usr3.jpg" /></p><p>The Shadow is getting a lot of attention and there's good reason. It's a small, and stylish device, that offers a really good experience for the user. The slideout SureType keyboard is really easy to use and the device still manages to be super thin. Matt Miller has posted his first impression of the Shadow after just 6 hours with the device, including a video showing how the home screen works. Give it a read and let us know your thoughts on this device. </p><p> </p>
