Lovin the A900

I am really loving/enjoying my 900 , does anyone else feel the same about thiers? (Other than the battery life)

i'm liking mine also as far as the battery life goes i really don't see any issues with it. i'm home right now and my a900 is not on the charger i still have all bars and phone has been off the charger since about 130. i have been using the web, media player, texting, talking. over the past few days i've noticed that the battery reading isn't accurate though sometimes i see two bars, minutes later it'll show all bars. i havn't had the chance to completely drain the battery yet maybe i'll do that tomorrow and see how long it'll last after a day of talking, texting, web etc... without being charged

I'm liking the reviews of this A900. This Treo has really cured my addiction to cell phones, I haven't wanted anything.....but this Blade seems hot! How's the T9 on it?

I just ordered mine from Telesales. After all the drama I had trying to acquire my Treo 650 I decided this was the route to go for us 'old time' customers. Even with the complaints on here about the Blade, I just have to have it for myself. Anyone know when they'll have additional batteries available?

I went from a Treo 650 to the 900 and so far I really love the phone. I have had no problems with the battery life what so ever, it's been great. I highly recommend this phone if you are considering it.

GO COLTS !!!!!!!!!

Was that trouble at the store? Online? On phone?

My luck with telesales this time around was horrible, but I've already posted that in another thread. I hope your situation turns out ok.

Perfect black phone for a Steelers fan!!!!! My battery died yesterday when I was with my sister and didnt have a car charger...I dont like the new style charger because everyone who "I roll with" has the car charger and I cant use it...WOULD LOVE TO SEE AN ADAPTER like the Treo has.

Enjoy the phone buddy....I love mine too

Rarely do I keep a phone more than a month, but I don't think I'll have a problem keeping my a900 for a long time. This phone has everything you need and then some. It's not perfect, but I think I've realized that there is no such thing as the perfect cell phone...and believe me I've tried to find the perfect cell phone for about 12 years.

even if the phone has been a complete pain in the @ss for the two weeks i've had it (picturemail hell http://www.sprintusers.com/forum/sho...d.php?t=83616), i still think it's the best sprint phone i've had in terms of style and substance. a keeper for me. it's pure style. and i love style

When I went for my 650, I was told they didn't have any in stock. I whined and said, "What a shame, I was going to open a second line of service today." He went and "doublechecked" and came from the store room with a brand new 650 in his hand. I despise when I'm lied to because I'm not a 'new customer'. This time I thought I'd try Telesales and see if the results were better.

I think lying is company policy. It seems people from all over the country had the same experience of being told they didn't have it when they did.

I had to go to the store to exchange out my phone (as CS on the phone told me because they sold me a bogus ESN) and they wouldn't do it. I went back the next morning to "buy" one. I was told they didn't have one. I asked to have the manager check. Again told they didn't have them. I finally said "look, I was here last night when you closed at 9. You had one then because your assistant manager S***e was trying to it get my other one to work. So I know you have at least one opened and I can see from here that you have another one in the box over there." Uh, are you interested in opening another line. "Oh yes, I most definately am. The phone I buy today I'm going to set up on my primary line, but when I return this non-working one and they send me a replacement then I will be." (Sure. That'll happen.)

Then they suddenly found one. "Actually, we have a whole bunch. They were just in the wrong place." Uh-huh.

Seriously, why do they lie? Just say they are only available for new customers until blah blah date as a promotion. Hell, tell me they don't like my haircut, but don't lie to my face.

Edit: I LOVE THIS PHONE! IT IS SO DAMN SEXY. Sorry.
