TEXTING
Is it hard to get used to texting on a touch screen? I am contemplating this phone or a blackberry but both require me to text on a touch screen.

I was just wondering what format the Dare would support?
Thanks

Turn off Internet?
Does anyone know if there is a setting in the phone that will disable the phones ability to log on to the internet?
A friend has a son that has the Dare and he has a plan to pay by MB. He accidentally pressed the wrong keys, realized his mistake and canceled as quick as possible. He used .1 MB ----- that's correct ----- .1 MB and was charged $1.99 !!!

Dare pocket dials?
Is pocket dialing a problem with the Dare? I'm getting this phone in 4 days and I just read a negative review about it on Amazon. His main complaint was that it pocket dials alot. He says the phone's lock is nearly useless and doesn't prevent the misdials. Is this true? Have other Dare owners had similar problems? I plan to carry the Dare in my pocket (with a full-body Zagg InvisibleShield) and I'm not getting a plan with a ton of voice minutes. Pocket dials would not be good for me. Any experience?

Still not clear about Rhapsody and music.
I'm getting a Dare in a week and I've never bothered putting music on a phone before. We're talking total newbie here. Can someone PLEASE explain to me an easy way to get music and album art on the phone if I do not want to order it over the phone and I do not want to subscribe to Rhapsody? I usually buy DRM-free songs from Amazon.com. Can I transfer those to the phone somehow? Would I have the album art? Sorry if this is really basic stuff, but I'd really appreciate any tips. Thanks!

Internet audio questions please.
Just got my dare this week for the internet and
music features.
Currently using plug in headset and plug
in earbuds.
SD card music playback is good.
Vcast music playback is good
Featured video playback from sites good.
However.....Youtube audio is Not good-sounds
like the audio is underwater or using a flange
special effect and also has poor frequency range. My buddy at work has internet on his
phone which is a different model/company and it
also sounds bad on youtube playback. Home
computer plays back the same videos with acceptable audio which I record and put on sd card.
Am wondering if a bluetooth stereo headset would play back the vids with good audio?
Thanks for any replies.

HORRIBLE pictures taken with my Dare.. very dissapointed
So i know, i know, you guys are probably thinking, "yeah.. thats why i never use my phone as my main source of pictures, especially on vacation." anyways, i went to Vegas and used my Dare to take many pictures... at the CES convention, at the AVN convention (look that up lol), on the strip, in the hotel, and even in the clubs. I printed out my pictures at walgreens and the pictures look like they were taken with an old school Motorola V710. they look cristal clear on my myspace and when i review them in my phone, but look horrible on 4x6 prints.
you wanna know the funny thing?
My best friend has an ENv2 and her pictures lookd waay better than mine printed out.. does that make sense? a 2.0 mp producing better pics than a 3.2?
heres...

BT Stereo Headset
I use my Sony BT stereo to listen to music and also (sometimes) for call taking on my Dare. The headset works great on both.
What I can't figure out how to do though is use my stereo headset when I am listening to videos (youtube for example) on Mobile Web. The sound will not play through the headphones (neither mono or stereo), it plays through the speaker on the back or it will play through the wired headset port on top, but not through the bt headphones.
Anyone know of any ideas on how to fix this?
Camera flash
Is there a way to save the setting for the camera flash to be on any time you want to take a picture? Every time I turn the flash on and get out of the camera function, the setting goes back to off.
Thank you.
