Thousands camped out at Apple stores and AT&T stores just so they could be one of the first owners of an over-priced phone that will likely be as similar a disappointment as the Razr Phones that everyone just HAD to have two years ago.
The problem is, the Razr phones were very poor phones that were so slimmed down and sleek, that their "cool look" was pretty much all they had going for them.
I have always compared it to putting the body of a Dodge Viper onto the motor and chasis of a Ford Escort. Sure, you'll look "cool" and "cutting edge," but you really just have a crappy car that will spend more time in the shop than on the road.
I just upgraded to a Samsung Sync (red). That's the phone you see pictured, above, except... mine is red... Did I get Red because I wanted a RED phone to support the fightagainst AIDS in Africa... no... I chose red, because my wife wanted red until I said that I liked the blue one... so then she wanted the blue one. So I said I'll just take the red one... now she wants me to swap SIM cards so that she can have the red phone and I can take the blue phone.... Hell to the NO!!! She WANTED red... I said I WANTED blue... she chose to take the blue instead so I took the red and will refuse to swap out of spite.
See, it's funny when you begin to play someone else's game by their rules and then stick to it... Whenever my phone rings, I know that she regrets being an ass.
Anyway, this phone looks basic, but is powerful enough for all my needs, since I never really anticipate watching the movie "300" on a 3-inch screen.
