Sound great, maybe a competition to the Apple Iphone. I have owned this phone for two weeks and had to cut my losses and return for a different phone. When I first purchased the phone I was amazed at the the little things the phone can do. I thought it was the best phone ever carried by Sprint. Everything was fine the first week as I played my games and text messaging by writing on the screen. Until one day the phone stopped ringing. Every time somebody called my phone didn't ring at all. Text messages took hours to arrive. I went to talk to a Sprint Technical support group and they tried everything still there was no answer to the problem. The representative told me that the HTC Touch functioned at the computer first and phone secondary. However I needed a phone more than a portable computer. I do not recommend this phone to anyone. After many disputes with Sprint I was able to a full refund and was able to enjoy my services with the new Blackberry.
