In my experience nothing is ever absolute with techology, theres always a tradeoff and people on both sides of the fence to anything.with this phone i never read anything negative. and I see why. its a great phone. can get upwards of 4gb cards now that rival ipods, except that you can swap these feathersized cards around if the mood strikes you. combine the camera and the phone into it and wow.dislikes, the FM radio feature is awesome, the fact that the hands free attachment doubles as the antenna for it, not so awesome. I understand an attachment is out to solve this though.it DOES ship with 128mb of memory, not the 512 that the website lists for the cingular version. Im still emailing with amazon to see what they are doing about this. not that I'll be sending the phone back, I planned to get a 2gb card anyway, but with 512 I could wait a few weeks, at 128... its really not a capable MP3 player holding maybe 20 songs.to add to this for the commenterssince people obviously want to know a time frameordered october 19th 2006shipped october 27th 2006recieved October 30th 2006it was scheduled to ship around november 2nd and deliver 14 days after that. so it was ahead of schedule. shipped via free shipping; it shipped from the same city that I live in, so it was essentially next day delivery except that it shipped friday and arrived monday.at this point, I have not recieved any compensation about the mistake with the advertised flash card. the response I recieved was"The non-cingular version comes with a 512 MB Memory Stick PRO(tm) Duowith enough memory, for up to 175 songs. "which is probably true, but that is obviously not what the website here states.to add to my review of the phone itself; I have since flashed the phone using [...]. the process itself was confusing to me, not too technical with phones, certainly a first for flashing them. all seems well with it. the best part of the flash so far is that the far right "cingular" button now acts as a shortcut button to activate the flash light, bluetooth, calender, and whatever else I want it to be. instead of some sales page for cingular... like I need a 1 push button to go there.with that said, the phone continues to impress. sound quality through the speakers is quite good. if I could change a single thing about the phone, Id put a headphone jack on it directly so I dont have to use the hands free cord.
