It's a pretty cool phone so far! Many options and has an extremely loud alert for such a tiny phone. If you are looking for a new phone, I recommend you check this out and see if you like it. Its a bit on the pricey side, but so far so good.
One quick question for anyone who has or has knowledge with this phone. You can switch between two alert modes, but I can only set one of the tones. When you hit the switch button it automatically goes to vibrate. I was wondering if there is there anyway to set it so that one of the settings could be a very loud alert and when you hit switch (the volume up botton) you go to a low volume setting?

 

i was gonna get this phone, but i decided against a flip/slide phone because i had a bad experience with my last flip one.

 

what happened?

 

I had a samsung. When i'd close the phone, the screens would blank out. the main screen and the outside screen. i'd have to pull the battery or turn off the phone to reset it.

same thing happened to my ex's samsung.

 

wow... never heard of anything like that happening with samsungs, or any other phone for that matter.

 

it sucked. now i have a motorola E398.

 

what's the difference between this phone and the samsung sliding phone? looks exactly the same to me except for the color. also, is this a quad band phone? tri-band? dual band? MP3 abilities? how about the camera?

 

this one is tri-band. Supposedly a world phone that can be used anywhere? i have a dual band phone too... which one is better?

 

triband, it works on the moon.

 

oh sweet! so it really is a great phone. I just wish it showed more bars on the reception meter. Although its clearer than my other phones with all 5 bars on, I still want to see all five bars on the phone all the time rather than 4 most of the time and 5 sometimes. any settings i can change it to that might get it to super good reception?
