I was wondering if I should buy the 6600 or wait even longer for the i730?

I know a good amount of people have purchased the 6601 and I haven't heard that there were any major problems with it, so I'm assuming the 6600 should be pretty bug-free since it's just adding a camera, am I wrong?

Also all the newer Samsung phones I have had have been plagued with bugs, but I figure with the i730, the phone will be using the MS operating system and hopefully will be bug free. :confused:

Does anyone know when the i730 is going to be released? Is anyone else worried about all the problems that normally come with a Samsung phone?

That antenna on the i730 is a major deal breaker for me, BLEH. The ppc6601 has phenomenal reception and has an internal antenna, when will cell phone makers learn?

True but the phone in general seems smaller, do you know if there are currently alot of bugs on the 6601?

I was going to be out of town for business when I ordered the phone, so they were nice enough to ship it to my hotel. It only took 2 days! WOW!

Initial thoughts:

1. Not as big and clunky as I thought it would be.
2. Great reception (one dropped call outside of JFK airport)
3. The ringer (even on high) is hard to hear
4. The headset that comes with the phone is workable, but I'm gonna shop around for something a bit better
