I think you got a hold of a bad one....
After using our store's demo model I can't do anything but praise it. The keyboard on ours is solid. The phone just feels solid. I have two personal complaints. The integration of your social networking sites into your phone contacts is abysmal and I hate that feature. I was using it and I removed all the standard widgets except for the weather.
The other complaint is the screan smudges super easily, but who doesn't put a screen protector on ...
If I were gonna hack this thing...
And put an alternat OS on it... which would be best? Android? Some distro of Linux?
I mean, with all the hardware capabilities, it seems like a waste to put something crappy like WiMo on it. I mean seriously...
Re: I guess...
Actually most companies pay about retail price for phones. The money isn't in the handset device, it's in the contracts. In fact 99% of the time a company sells a device at a subsidized price, they take a loss upwards of 30 bucks. When you sell several thousand handsets every week it costs.
Not to mention that most cellular companies don't know whether they've made a profit off a person for at least 6 months after they sign a ...
Re: 1700 and 2100?
3g is dual band, it uses one frequency for uplink and another for downlink. The N70 will not work because only one of it's frequencies is available on the phone, not both.
Re: Boo...screw this via the browser crap.
Maybe iPhone users should buy a REAL phone and not some child's toy with an excessively gimmicky concept. If people want a top of the line data phone that really does everything, they should buy an N95.
Re: Hurry and get this!
Fair enough. What I should have said is this is not a promotional price.
Re: KICK ASS!!!!
The article on T-Mobile News says New AND Existing customers. I just read it. I'm a rep too ;)
Re: good idea..
And some of us don't like data phones. You have to right-fit your customer.
Don't the have more important things to be worried about?
Seems to be a little mismanaged doesn't it?
Re: good idea..
Or don't like big clunky phones or have no need for all the other features on a blackberry, don't want all the headaches from unstable operating systems, etc.
There are some of us who prefer non-smart devices because we just don't like blackberry or windows mobile. But then again, most of us don't want corporate email on their phones anyways because we aren't married to our jobs.
Re: Hurry and get this!
This is the permanent price.
Re: KICK ASS!!!!
From what I can tell this is for both new AND existing customers.
Re: so now you will never need a landline?
Femtocells, as far as I can tell, actually broadcast a gsm signal for a monthly service fee. This is COMPLETELY different and completely incomparable. This is land-line replacement for 10 bucks a month. We do STILL have the hotspot@home service which allows certain wifi enabled handsets to connect to ANY wireless router and use it for service and for $10/mo you get unlimited calling while connected via wifi.
Re: Free Coverage?
That's not right at all. Only ceratin handsets can connect to a wireless router and you can set up security so only phones you own can connect to the router. It runs off 802.11g normal wifi. The hi-port router is only for the @home service which is a land-line replacement. It works like a normal wifi router with the exception that it has two places for sim cards and two WIRED home telephone jacks (standard RJ11), to put a ...
Some disambiguations:
The T-mobile @ home service is a land-line replacement. 10 dollars a month gets you unlimited nationwide long distance, unlimited minutes, caller ID, etc. and uses a regular home telephone. The telephone connects to a special wireless router with 2 spots for sim cards. You can have up to two lines per router.
T-Mobile still has it's Hot Spot @home service which lets certain wifi enabled phones, like their new Nokia 6301 or Samsung t339, connect to any normal ...
Got my 6301 prior to launch...
and I love it.
The UMA on it is amazing and the screen clarity is unrivaled.
This phone supports the new facelift given to the T-Zones servce as well.
As for the 339, I've played with it and if I were going to get a Samsung, that'd probably be the one, but I'm a Nokia fanboy so my allegiances wont allow it.
(I won my 6301, btw) :)
Re: addition information
The LX comes in blue and brown... I guess blue must not be your color...
As for speed, it is sifnificantly faster than previous sidekicks and has a better browser than virtually any phone on the market. Unlike the blackberry and HTC devices, it load full webpages, not mobile ones.
Re: 5610
I'd really like to know where you're getting your information.
Re: Too bad it's not the 5320
It's not the upgrade to the 5300... it's just an addition to the lineup :wink:
Re: AT&T Caps Data? News to me
My brother has been continually charged for overages on AT&T's data services for some time now... hmm...
T-Mobile's has been unlimited for some time now...
Both our Blackberry and Total Internet have been unlimited for some time.
Re: mobile wimax
That's because they are using old broadcasting technologies and bigger numbers look better to consumers and a lot of those frequencies are being vacated due to law...
Re: They had it coming for a long time
Deutsche Telekom's assets make AT&T look like a pauper... And withh T-Mobile being #1 in wireless growth and gaining net customers, there's no way AT&T could ever buy T-Mobile. In fact, Deutsche Telekom could probably buy AT&T, but it wouldn't make business sense...
Re: Wait I thought these layoffs were all rumors!!
Please don't! I don't think my eyes can take that bad grammar again.
Re: An Alltel+Sprint merger more likely than Verizon
I really don't think DT will do it... I think that the risk involved with buying such a troubled company is just way high.
Re: An Alltel+Sprint merger more likely than Verizon
Not true at all.
Alltel has more than just a small mobile network in a few markets with extremely annoying commercials...
Alltel has a LOT of landlines and DSL subscribers... With their owners and investors they could probably afford Sprint, it's just not likely and would be VERY economically irresponsible
Re: PLEASE DO!!!!
As far as fans and revenue, even Major League Baseball beats the crap out of NFL.
Re: PLEASE DO!!!!
Is NUMEROUS awards by J.D. Power and Associates crappy? Look 'em up, it's MUCH MUCH more than just customer service too.
Think before you speak.
Re: PLEASE DO!!!!
I'm no NASCAR fan but NASCAR is the biggest and most profitable sport in the U.S. and there are many many many figures (as far as number of fans AND revenue from both television) to prove that.
Re: Well good it's about time...
They don't use it anymore? :o
That could be the problem. I mean Six Sigma is still rather silly (and arbitrary) but it can't be worse than whatever "Quality Control" they're currently using.
I would estimate that about 65% of Razrs are faulty. That's a huge number too. Especially when 3.4 defects per million used to be the standard.
Re: What types of devices?
Like without an option to block it? That'd be crazy and abused. I do NOT want advertisements all the time. That would be worse than telemarketers.
Re: Well good it's about time...
Still slow compared to my Nokia and I've had 6 of them returned and with it's price tag I've only been able to sell 7. That's not a good track record. That being said, the interface is outstanding and the screen is beautiful. But it still has too many bugs. Six Sigma is a joke.
Re: Good!
Should children starve because the government is taking all the food money from single mothers?
Re: Stupid Democrats
Or outlaw political parties?
Re: Time to pay up!
You're overreacting. If Sprint closed it's doors there's about a 99.9% probability that the infrastructure and employees would be absorbed by another CDMA carrier.
Re: What types of devices?
If I had to guess they'd be used for data transfer from device to device or comp to comp... possbily even for things like iPods and pocket storage devices in the future.
The way it looks it wouldn't work on a headset because of the rapid on/off swtiching.
Re: nikkoletta
People are always wanting something free like they deserve it.
Re: Bad News Bears
Seeing as Motorola is spinning it's handset division off into a separate company, this probably wont affect motorola phones at all.
Re: Was Icahn right?
It could but this is what Icahn does. Of course, this probably wont affect their mobile division...
Re: Question: WiFi for Calls?
T-Mobile's version is the only one with UMA, in fact, T-Mobile is the only carrier that offers UMA. AT&T may be trying to develope it, bt they haven't launched it.
