Sprint and all of it's stupid decisions...

Wouldn't it have been more wise to take this feature set and put it into an EV-DO Rev. A phone with QChat support? Aren't we trying to get people OFF of the iDEN network?

Bad speaker design

The decision to use the covered speaker that travels to the top of the device is a horrible decision. I have a Pearl on At&t and it's only now decent with a Seidio battery cover that does not muffle the speaker. If the Nextel unit is using the same speaker as my Pearl it's going to suck for any kind of speaker phone experience. 🙄
