I have one: it is a much more stble phone. It is quad band, has Edge capability. The opersting system has been improved as well as the browser. Battery length has also been extended. A good example of what T-Mobile can do when working directly with a phone manufacturer. It is a no-frills phone, good reception and it is not heavy.
