Picked up the phone yesterday.

The good:

Nice form factor, fits in the front pants pocket well.
Solid build. Battery cover fits tight with no creaks. Buttons are all solid.
On-board SMS. (Now, if Sprint could actually deliver an sms message that would really be the complete package).
Screen is acceptable. It can almost be seen in the daylight.
Speaker-phone works well and appears to be full duplex. If it's half, it sounds pretty good.
Earpiece volume is very good with very clear sound. No complaints about how I sound to others.

The bad:
Signal appears to be on par with Samsung...not to good.
Battery life is miserable...a little better than the T608, but keep a charger handy.
Screen; not much color or contrast.
Button backlight is dull green.
No picture ringers available.
Not able to reconfigure 4 way nav key.
Pathetic ringers; only 1 normal ringer. Included are other favorites such as, Kindergarten, Choo Choo, Toddler, Whistle, and Comic Song. Who-ever gave the blessing to this fine group of ringers should be fired.
