everyone I have spoken with in real life has said they are blown away by it. I think some of the people on this board have just been very critical and expected way too much.

I get mine today or tomorrow, and Im sure Ill like it a ton.

from what I hear, its the best phone on the market hands down. no phone will be ever be perfect.

my 2 cents

Yeah, i'm looking forward to getting this phone. Most the bad reviews are about Bluetooth, which is Verizon's fault cuz they disabled it, but are making a firmware update. And other bad reviews are for the camera, although it's a 1.2 mp, it'll never match up to an actual digital camera cuz it's a phone! Plus it has a CMOS censor not a CCD. But this phone looks awesome and i'm looking forward to getting it next month on my 14th b-day! 😁

There are a few snags I am trying to work out, but that is the fun part of new equipment.
The reception is the best I have ever had. I can get full signal in spots that I used to get NOTHING!

It is a very interesting phone.

The problem is Bluetooth. That is why everyone was waiting on this phone. Sure it works with a headset, but is that worth spending 300 - 500 for a phone? Not for me. I like the phone, but bluetooth was what would put this phone on the map. Not great signal strength, speaker phone or camera. Don't most cameras do that now?? Just a thought.

Can you hear me now?

Yeah, too bad Verizon screwed up the Bluetooth. But hopefully there'll be a firmware upgrade.

you say not great signal strength, speakerphone or camera.

Ive heard the signal strength has been outstanding (people getting reception in areas they never did before) and the speakerphone was loud and clear. the camera on the other hand I heard was average...but not any worse than any camera phone out there now

Bluetooth is the only reason I hunted this thing down! Since I am having problems getting it up and running, I am a little disappointed. But once that is working, I will be VERY happy with the purchase.

For what I wanted (newer phone than my StarTac-like Timeport, Bluetooth supporting DUN and handsfree, Tri-mode, signal strength, calendar) I love it. Size is just right for me, couldn't care less about the camera or the Picture caller ID. To me it's a tool, strictly business. With the exception of the earpiece volume limitations (which I'll easily adjust to), I could not be happier.

I'm happy with it as well. It would be better if the BT implementation were better, but for $150 this thing is great.
