I currently have one and its not that great. there seems to be an issue with any smart phone that runs on a non intel processor. I believe that this one runs on the TI processor. it has basically lost its mind 3 times and i have only had it a week. This morning after charging it over night i woke up with it saying it had an error and it needed to reboot. after 15 minutes of completly removing the battery and 6 or 7 reboots it finally found my service provider again. again i have only had it a week! i will try and update everyone again a little later!

Come on are you serious? I have been using my pitiful Panasonic (talk time 32 minutes) in anticipation of this upgrade. I am really hoping your comments are not the norm for this product.
How did you get one and from where. I'm an AT&T subscriber.

Can you give me specifics about availability
When (Not til Oct?)
Where (California?)
How Much

Yes very serious, wish i wasn't i am a huge fan of the smart phones. Talk time on this isn't much better either, battery time is horrible especially with blue tooth on. i test PC products for a living so believe me i was disappointed too. The problem is that this an other smart phones based on the TI processor are not true OEM loads of the Smart-phone OS. they basically have to put a translator between the processor and the OS so it works. what it boils down to is price. the TI processor cost I believe like 8 bucks less than the Intel so they don't want to spend the extra money to put it in. If it is an Intel processor the translator is taken out and stability increases about 200% its a real shame because the form factor is great and the pho...

What's your service provider? Is this one of the engineering test models?

I'm not sure if you really have one, or if you just have an engineering sample with older software, but Bengalboy at howard forums is raving about his and how fast and rock solid it's been.

Bengalboy is the guy that has posted reviews of the V3 RAZR and MPx.

And no one has a final production model yet, so claiming this phone isn't that great and requires numerous reboots has to be qualified cause you don't have the shipping phone.

😎 You are the bomb! I can see now I need to change careers

I am banking on the release date of 9/28 and the cost ~ 378. My current phone has talk time of 15 minutes so this phone I will say will be a slight improvement.
