Great prepaid phone.....
Really an excellent phone with many features, although it can be a little tough on the setup. I complained about the wifi hookup along with a lot of folks. It WILL work, and really flies once you figure it out. Get the set ID saved first. Then pull it up and look under options (details) and find out what kind of encryption you are hooking up to. Then save the password. If you garble the SSID you will have trouble erasing it. To erase, delete ALL the letters and then re-type the correct name in.
I tour on my motorcycle and will probably be using a few of the web features for trips and looking up motels, etc. If you're a heavy user you may need to look at the regular smart phones and pay through the nose. Setting up email is a no brainer. The keyboard is nice and a little small but it works. The space key drives some folks nuts until they figure it out, as it will post a space and a PERIOD at the same time. The trick is to hit the LEFT side of the spacebar if you don't want the period in there as well. Lovely screen and nice battery life, this is a huge step up from the other Tracs. I had the LG800G and I hated the scrolling and the touch screen, this phone is far superior and as a real bonus the voice dialing works absolutely great. This phone is a real bargain for the casual user.
