Hi! :wavey:

I had a Sanyo 8400 and I loved it. It came time to upgrade, so I figured I'd get the LG Rumor at my friend's suggestion. I test and browse a lot, so the keyboard is quite helpful.

There are a lot of things I don't like about it, though. It's great for texting/eMailing/browsing but fails as a phone.

No Music Store (I have a lot of songs from there)
Can't assign "hot keys" to applications (my sanyo had the favorite's list)
Can't view YouTube
Can't use Opera Mini 4.1
It's hard to talk on when I'm not on speaker
Low onboard memory (only 16mb)


Things I want (including the above)

Stereo bluetooth
Assign ringtones from the memory card (I'm not sure if any phones have this yet)
MicroSD compatible


I'm going to call Sprint this afternoon and ESN swap back to my 8400. In the mean time, any suggestions on a good phone to get? How are the new Katanas?

I think that the Centro would be more to your liking.

I am not sure. I think you pay through internet.

I'd also go with the Centro, except it doesn't have Sprint Music Store. Otherwise, it seems to have everything else you need.

Another vote for the Centro.
