This phone is the BEST phone I have ever owned or seen I just got this today (12/1/04) and I LOVE it! Activating it was a snap and plus you get $10 in bonus talk time! I cannot say enough great things about this great phone. Here are my pros and cons-PROS-Vibrant nice color screen really prettythe camera is awesome! I love the 3 different resoulutions and zoom plus the cool shutter sounds those are nice.The cosmetic look of the phone is cool I love the blue.I've heard some people say the ringtones and speakerphone are not loud enough I disagree I think they are just right and I love the real music!Virgin XL in general is so cool! I'm a teen and they sure know how to please the younger crowd!And the flash is good too it's nice and bright.And I also love how you can send picture messages with a voice message or text message.The downloads are fast and easy.And I also like how you can access the camera with the push of one button.CONS- I only have one the battery life kind of sucks but it's not too bad.If you are considering buying this phone you absolutely should! I hope this was helpful.
