UTStarcom Blitz TXT8010

Man as wicked ugly as it may look I sold 4 of them on Saturday. Its got a real smooth slide unlike a lot of slider phones (samsung) that usually are tossed off for free not to mention its very user friendly which appeals to a lot of the older generations. for the price its not a bad buy if you are a heavy txt message user. otherwise the sound quality is really good and although its missing .1 mega pixel from the standard 1.3 this phone comes fully equipped with a data cable so although its slightly worse at least it wont cost you to download your pictures to your computer which is a common problem in a lot of phones. when closed the it looks really goofy but when opened it resembles a blackberry curve and is nearly the same size as well... since when was compact a bad thing? I don't know I think there is too much bashing on this phone... how many of you have had hands on experience with it? don't hate it till you've tried it
