Am I crazy? Considering selling TITAN for Focus Flash...

First off- No, you are not crazy. The joy of mobile is the choices. Screen size, capabilities, it pretty much is a great selection.

It does seem a little strange that with the original Focus being so well regarded, no other Windows Phone took the hint and was released with a 4" screen. But, the 3.7" Focus Flash is a great performing phone. The processor is not a step down from the "S", so it is slick as ice in performance and can handle everything that can be thrown at it. Cruise over to the Flash forums: very few complaints or problems.

You really only step down in three areas: Screen is not as vibrant as the "S" or Titan, memory, and camera. And by the way: the camera is okay. Shutter speed is actually a little better than on the "S". But, if you upload to sites such as Flickr and other photo sharing sites than it most likely will not meet your needs. Memory is a drawback. If you do not download a bunch of music or store movies to watch you should be okay. If you do, than it is not for you.

If you are a mostly a web-surfer, social networker, and download only a couple dozen apps or so, you will not be dissapointed at all with the Flash. It is really a steal at it's price point.
 
You're not crazy at all. I got my TITAN on "Black Saturday". I used it until CES. When the TITAN II was announced, I felt pretty cheated. Then came the Lumia 900 and it was love at first sight. I decided to start saving up for the 900 (I have to buy it off contract). I bought two Focus Flash's for $300.00 with the intention of reselling them and making a profit. I thought I'd use one, just for kicks, but it's been a month and I haven't touched my TITAN. I sold one Flash and have now put my TITAN up for sale. Once I get the 900, I'll sell the Flash I'm using.
 
The main reasons for my ditching the mighty TITAN for the tiny FOCUS Flash are:

I think Windows Phone looks much better on Super AMOLED than on Super LCD.

The small size and having the power/lock button on the side make using the device much easier.

And the reason that meant the most to me is that the Flash has the ability to disable haptic feedback. I hate haptic feedback so much, and there's no way to get rid of it on the TITAN.

My only gripes with the Flash are the hardware "Start" button (I strongly prefer a capacitive one), the camera sucks in comparison with the TITAN's, and there's only like 5.9GB of storage available. Other than that, I like it so much I haven't touched my TITAN in a month.
