I get a new phone ever 2 months cause they all quit doing something or workgin all together. not a very durable phone at all, its better suited for someone who will keep it in a holster, never drop it, never abuse it, never install ---- and trys not to do anythign crazy with it.

Wait till its starts throwing a @ inbetween every letter in your text. or when you get the Cannot use phone there is no wireless radio message. Also the fact that tha phone never truely closes programs or the fact taht all teh programs have a mem leak issue it a bit of a bitch too. keep the stylus handy cause daily reboots will be the norm after workign the phone for a good few weeks.

Sorry for the rant. on my way for phone No.7 now, been through 4 PPC-6700 adn this will be the 3rd new 6800.

I have installed a fair amount of programs on my phone, Includeing IFONZ for a short period. Never had a problem. There are rom updates to fix battery life and enable gps radio. These programs never let me down and niether has the phone. PPC geek 4 life. Of course it is always a good idea to have the original rom for your phone in case you need to take it back for repairs. Updating your rom is not covered.

Re: Smart phones

I have a Samsung A900 and it does fine for what I need. The battery doesn't last for ---- and if you roam you might as well just turn it off until you need to make a phone call because it will be dead in an hour or so. :3 Just got my GF the LG "Rumor". I haven't fucked with it much, but IMO it sucks. :-\

I don't know how you guys lose your phones so much. My phone is like a part of my body that I can't go anywhere without. It's strange because I HATE talking on the phone more than anything in the world, but for some reason always manage to have my phone on me. :l
