Am I mad that she has the X and I don't? Not in the least. I could easily try to upgrade a month or two early or add another line just as she did in order to get one.

As far as this comment is concerned: My wife and I just drove over 600 miles one-way to visit a family member over the Labor Day weekend. We were on the road for over 11 hours each way, including stopping once each way to eat, gas stops, and a small detour to a house we once owned. I drove half the time, she drove the other half. I also compared the speed of the two every night after she went to bed while both were plugged into the same electrical outlet.
I had plenty of time to test the X against the Eris yet again side-by-side, running the
EXACT SAME APPS. Again, I am 100% satisfied that I have my Eris. While the X has the "Gee Whiz" effect, I am quite pleased that the right Eris can still hold its own against just about any phone released, new or old. I could not tell a difference when I went to launch an app, get directions, send or receive texts, or just about any other test I ran.
Yes, I am aware that the X has a much faster processor. Yes, I am aware that the X has greater memory.
My initial comparison was just meant to relay my experiences with both phones over the course of one evening. Over the course of the trip, my initial feeling about these phones are the same. I realize that some people think I may be out of my mind, jealous, or a little of both, but nothing could be further from the truth. While I am glad that my wife has a phone that makes her happy, I continue to be happy with my phone. Isn't that what's it's all about anyway, being happy with the phone you have?
