    Pros: The bright display screen, good battery life, features

    Cons: I'll be honest, the fast tap system isn't all that much faster, It will take time to get used to. Plus on the small sub screen on front it doesn't show picture of person calling, only on the main scn

    Summary: I have had about three phones within my past two years of my Alltel contract. I started out with the Audiovox 8910. Once I found out how much of a dud that phone was, it finally broke down on me. My friend lent me one of their Motorola's from a previous contract. It was ok to get me through. However I started having problems. With that one.

    I then switched to a cheap LG model phone, and that got be through the rest.

    I was so happy to get a nice phone again when I resigned. This phone has been great soo far, the battery life seems pretty good. However, I am not a heavy user of it.

    The fast tap system is a bit slow, but don't get discourged... enter 100 of your contacts... you'll get faster.

    Overall I think the camera is pretty good, takes much better pictures. For a mid level inexpensive phone, this is great. I don't have a mind of paying several hundreds of dollars on a phone, so this suited me just perfectly.

    I would recommend this phone to anyone.

    I'm sure you have a new phone by now, but you can change the outter screen to show pictures when someone is calling. I don't remember exactly how, because mine got broken over a year ago...but I loved this phone.
