400Mhz? Not bad..

Awesome phone. Can't wait to see what we can do with additional add-ons later down the road. What I mean by that is the option to pretty much upgrade anything; much like a PC - Including the processor, ram, harddrive, etc..creating an even more customizable device for numerous people. I wander if ATTWS will get this one. I'm pretty sure there isn't any Audiovox devices for them at the time being...
