What is Good: Shadow is a sleek slider with a custom interface and jog dial that make it easier to use than the average Windows Mobile smartphone.  The SureType keypad fits a QWERTY layout into the space of a regular numerical keypad but has larger buttons than the BlackBerry Pearl or Samsung Blast.  Built-in WiFi and myFaves compatibility.

What's Not Good: Not everyone will like Shadow’s keypad.  Wider than most slider phones.  Less powerful than many smartphones.  No touchscreen.  EDGE is slow for Web browsing.

Bottom Line: If you’re looking for a smartphone in a sleek disguise, Shadow is an interesting choice.  Though it runs Windows Mobile, it’s really more like a souped-up messaging phone than a smartphone.  The custom UI is a great touch.
