The Bottom Line: NICE PHONE!!

I've had this phone for 1 month now an have to say that I am VERY impressed with the features of this phone!

First, when programming the phone I was able to enter in multiple numbers for one name. This is a major advantage for me since I may have a persons home number, work number, and cell number. These entries can be placed under the name of the person instead of making multiple entries.

Second, the battery life. The battery on this phone provides you with several days of life. I work in a building that has really crappy reception, and the old phone I had (an Ericsson) used to run from a full charge to totally empty in a little over 3 hours. This phone can go all day in this hostile environment without the battery indicator not even moving. I have noticed that when the battery indicator moves off of 100%, the life seems to diminish quickly. This is the BEST phone I have ever seen with respect to battery life.

Third, the size. The phone is a nice size. I ordered the phone online from AT&T and didn't know that to expect. Since I'm a big guy, I wanted a phone a little bigger than my Ericsson. When it arrived it was smaller, but was laid out better than the Ericsson. Now, I've gotten used to this phone and like the size. The keys are the hard plastic type that appear to be more durable than rubber keys. I have mixed emotions about them, but appear to function well, and are very well placed.

Fourth, the casing. The case of this phone is rubberized, and can take a little beating and keeps on ticking. I purchased the belt clip and it comes with a cradle that holds the unit at the bottom comfortably. I RECOMMEND getting the belt clip for everyone getting this phone.

Overall I think this phone will provide me with excellent value, and durability.
