I bought this a few nights ago and I have been enjoying this cell phone. I had another Sony Erisson which was pretty old so I ditched that one and got this one. This phone has a really cool design. All you do is just turn the screen open and you are ready to go! This screen is HUGE and the color is exceptionally well! The phone has megapixel technology with about 8x zoom. The reception is very good and I am always at five bars. Like other websites I do agree that the buttons are a bit slippery and a bit small but that's no a big setback. The battery life is okay and usually about 2-5 hours on a normal day. Cingular Wireless is okay and I would look into this phone. A lot of websites have been rating this a very good phone and so do I.
