The 7022 has a 4:3 screen as well I believe.
The 7022 is a 16:9 widescreen.

I fiddled around with the 8125 some more last night. I had already sideloaded the Market using the usual methods, and I was able to download apps from it and the Applib, but the flaky wifi made it very unreliable.

The screen size works well for displaying comic books, though the Droid Comic Reader app left a bit to be desired.

I finally gave up on trying to get it to work, and shipped it back to the merchant over lunch today. Hopefully I will get a working model back from them, or my money back.

Edit: I will say one thing: I like the Android operating system better the more I use it.
