This multimedia device is truly one for the books. I believe it really rivals, if not tops off the Apple i Phone 3.0G s. It has amazing features and the size and screen quality are impeccable. The built in memory (16GB) accompanied by the expandable micro SD slot is also a great feature. This phone solves the need for having a digital camera, video camera, MP3 player, cellular device,portable messenger, portable web browser and video viewing device. All those components of the device are top of the line and not lackluster as compared to many other smart phones.

I had many friends that owned iPhones...but i hate AT&T as did most of my friends with iphones agree :) I purchased the A855 as soon as it was availible. I was trying to decide betweent the A855 and the HTC touch pro 2(I had the htc mogul XV6700 before). End of the day, i picked up the A855 for the android operation system. The android operating system is so easy to use. I was tired of having to constantly reset my mogul. The windows mobile phones are not as customizable unless you go through the process of unlocking the phone...which I did on my Mogul. But unlockign the phone is a hastle.
PROS
Screen resolution
Android Market
Great Verizon network(data and voice clarity)
No problems with pairing with bluetooth devices(had issues with the XV6700)
CONS
Keyboard is barely raised up at all! (use the onscreen and download HANDCENT)
Battery life (use a program like Locale to manage bluetooth, display, notifications, and sounds to save on battery)
No Send or End Buttons(not a big deal but they are nice

I didn't buy this phone on amazon I bought it from the local verizon store. This is one of the best phone on earth! It run google android 2.0 which is open source so, this thing has endless possibilities! You can run multipliable apps at the same time, has a excellent GPS, 5 mp cam, a real keyboard and has around 10,000 - 20,000 apps so you will find something for you. I was even able to tether it for free(I didn't even need to root it!) Way better then the Iphone. The only phone I have seen that I though was better is the nexus one ;)
No geek should be caught dead without one!

Needs more work, calls out randomly, it hates yahoo email
I had this thing for two months, and took it back to Verizon. They didn't want to take it back but did. This phone is fast on the internet, but it has too many 'quirks'. Read more

S-T-O-P!!!
I paid the full price for this paperweight. You CANNOT get prepaid service with this. I don't do contracts so the Verison $1.99 unlimited talk and text suited me to a tee. Read more
