Advantages: Tumbling dice?

Disadvantages: Fragile phone lock

I bought this phone after being informd that it was the best on the market at the time, however I disagree. Its fiddly to use because unless you have very thin fingers you usually end up pressing more than one of the icons at once. The screen is so delicate, and as yet I have not found a case made for it, that the screen gets easily scratched and dirty. The button on the side which you lock and unlock the keypad with only needs to be pressed with the merest of pressure and you end up dialling people in your phone book. Although one of the plus points to it is that you can put in a pin code to lock the feaures such as messages, phone book and calender etc, thus keeping it all secure. However, with this feature on, if you have the phone in your pocket and it unlocks itself, its not difficult to block it by it entering the pin code incorrectly on your behalf.

Summary: not quite as impressive as it looks
