Anyone have one? I'm thinking of getting one but have yet to find anyone who has one. What are your thoughts on this phone?

ok, keys are a bit too small.

battery life is terrible. they include an extra battery.

just get a mp3 phone or a blackberry type pda phone

I have one, so does dmidkiff

keys are fine

battery life is meh, but yeah, they do give you another battery. just keep it in the car or your jacket pocket.

I played with this and the blackberry pearl, and based on the low battery life and inability to sync with a mac, I went with the pearl.

brickbreaker alone is worth it.

bro you gotta get meteor crusher

2/6/2007 11:20:56 AM

any uber-thin phone is going to have poor battery life.

another reason I chose it was because of its ability to sync with exchange servers without bullshit blackberry software having to be loaded (on the server)

Went in and played around with one today....Im not sure I even want a qwerty keyboard on my phone, I am so fast at texting with a standard number layout I dont know if I wanna switch, not to mention I can text with one hand while driving. Seemed like it had a lot of features, but not really sure how practical it will be for me.

I wasn't bragging, I am sure everyone can do it, I was just implying its almost impossible to do with a qwerty layout on a phone.

how many people actually waste time text messaging that frequent this section?

2/6/2007 9:06:25 PM

I had over 1000 last month.

2/6/2007 9:08:20 PM

i've been using the nokia pda phone thing.

i find it to be much more useful. it was also free.

2/6/2007 10:24:47 PM

I find myself texting more now that I have the qwerty keyboard. Also replying to emails. One handed. While driving.

I started to look at the Blackjack to replace my S710a since I already have cingular

But I'll probably just end up getting a Pearl whenever MS blesses them internally.

I work with cellphones all day, and I'll give you this advice:

Don't buy a Samsung. Don't ever buy a Samsung. As nice as one might seem, it WILL break or malfunction in some completely debilitating way within 8 months. Beyond that, the user interfaces on them are apalling. If you're looking more for a boss phone, go for the SE w810i. If you're looking for a solid smartphone, check out the Blackberrys. The blackjack tries to be both, and each only half-assedly.

i dont see why RIM would let MS fuck up the good thing they already have going.
