Yes, as Rocco pointed out, the App Market can sort apps based on whether they are free or not. The review should be updated to correct this error. Also, the on-screen keyboard does show an enlarged image of the selected key, and you can slide your finger over to another key if the one shown isn’t the key you want. You can also long-press a key to get additional punctuation (such as an umlaut ä). After downloading dozens of apps from the App Market, I have never encountered anything like the statement in the review that “some of the apps I downloaded kept trying to get me to download additional apps every time I opened them”. I don’t use any of the social networking apps, so I can’t comment on any issues with those. However, the App Market does provide user ratings and comments that I have found to be extremely good indicators of what to expect from an app, especially for a popular app with thousands of people providing feedback. As far as the phone itself, the review missed some key features such as the ability to add widgets, folders, custom ringtones, wall papers, skins, etc., etc., etc.

To correct a bit of misinformation in this article, you CAN separate the free apps from the paid apps. When in an app category, such as “All” hit the menu button, then hit “Change View” and tap on “Free item only.” That will separate, in ANY category of the market, the free from the paid. you can also sort by paid only and of course, the default, all.
