[Teh One Who Knocks]

Anyone know anybody that has one? I'm actually half considering it since T-Mobile is running a data plan special right now

Here's a pretty thorough review of it, if you are interested.

Yeah, I saw that....I was hoping someone had one (or knows someone that has one) to see what they thought about it

It's expensive (even with the upgrade discount) so I wanna see what people think of it first

[redred]

will you be able to upgrade the os on this phone? 2.3(gingerbread is out for some phones) and 3.0 should be too far off also do you like a good battery life lance because thats the one problem with smartphones

[Teh One Who Knocks]

I would have to assume the OS is upgradeable...aren't all Android phones?

[redred]

some only to a certain point i think ( maybe wrong)

[Teh One Who Knocks]

Still not even sure if I am gonna get it yet...just at the thinking about it stage right now

[redred]

i think you have to ask yourself why would you get it , am i right in thinking your in the band of a phone is a phone guy , i know i use the texts apps/internet more than phone calls , i use apps like maps , footie updates ,facebook and news sites almost everyday and google sky is great when am out camping for looking at stars and planets and maps comes in great as a sat nav around new places i'm in , but if you just want a phone just look for a nice looking design

I rarely use my phone to make calls, I hate talking to people

I send way more texts than I do phone calls. Plus, if I am not mistaken, texts will be included in the data plan, so I can actually drop the texting plan I had to add to my account.

not sure about that i'm on tmobile uk and know that my texts and data aren't linked

[Teh One Who Knocks]

Really? Well that's just being fucking greedy then

I'll have to check

This is true.

Well, if you text a lot and that is what you like to do with your phone and not so much surf and email and such...then maybe a phone with full, QWERTY-keyboard would be better for you. 4G is useless if you are not so interested in data and if 4G is not even available in your area. So maybe this is not a phone for you afterall if you'd be "wasting" the features and capability and still paying for all of it....

Really? Well that's just being fucking greedy then

...especially cuz all the "packages" and "plans" are so messed up and crappy for the most part over there.
