Mistake to keep it?

I'm new to cingular. I started off w/ the Treo 650, froze up and rebooted itself constantly, not worth the trouble. switched to the 6682 and are having problems with it including poor reception ( worse than sons Razr V3 and wifes SE 710a) The thing is... I really like this phone. my 30 days are almost up, wife switched from her 6682 to SE 710. Am I making a mistake not switching or will these problems be fixed including reception. thanks for your .02

if it were me I would not keep it, although not many folks would agree with me...

Most folks have said that the reception on the 6682 is excellent. Could you have a hardware problem?

In my case, the 6682 reception is excellent. It picks up a signal much, much better than my previous phone (Nokia 3120) and much better than my colleagues. I no longer have to walk to the window to make/take a call; my colleagues with Cingular have to walk to the window.

I'm in NC, but have better than expected reception going through VA (I-77) and WV (Turnpike) when I wasn't deep in a valley.

the reception isnt bad enough thats its a deal breaker, I was just wondering if a new firmware comes out will it get as good as the other phones and if I keep this will I be stuck with an orphan if they dont fix it? This is my first nokia and my first symbian phone, I really like it I just want it to work right. as far as the reception, its wierd. If I put all three phones togeather, the moto and se might be a solid 3 or 4 bars and the 6682 will be bouncing between 2 or 3 and no signal

let me restate that. the example I mentioned is in my house in the country. most places, I get a signal, its just never as good as the other 2 phones and its never a solid signal. its always bouncing. my biggest problem with the phone is it freezing up sometimes and loosing the call logs
