Its easier said than done, I'm having to survive on my wifes old 'PINK' Motorola V3
This can be considered retro-chic if you use the palmtree background
Am honestly suprised it's survived, I thought the connections died on the V3's pretty quick.

I've got two of them somewhere and they both work as far as I know.
Nope, the screen is .6" bigger than the X1, camera is better and the body is just as thick. The problem I have with the phone is that it was marketed as a £450+ handset when released which to me is pretty high end (have to pay for it on a contract) yet it came out 2 years after the X1 and the only difference between the handsets is faster internals and the accelerometer. I didn't want a bigger screen or a bigger handset, the X1 was the same size as a k700i but I needed an upgrade, this feels like a sidestep.
OS wise I'm getting more frustrated, ok there's a lot of stuff missing out the box that should have been there at launch which mango is fixing, but I'm getting regular lockups with marketplace (just freezes) and "apps" (such a horrible term, hate that word) often fail to load and dumps me back on the start menu. Last night 2 apps on marketplace wanted updates and it actually threw up an error code for the first time instead of crashing without notice. I'm having to reset the device 2-3 times a day to get around freezes. I miss having a file explorer, I miss having the ability to plug it into any pc to drag/drop files, I miss having more options in menus and I really miss multitasking right now.
I'm pleased I only paid £220 for it as it really is just a sidestep from what I have, only reason I bought it is because I needed a new qwerty handset for a cheap price as my X1 spends more time with the repair centre for cracked chassis than it does with me. If I had to chose again I'd still get one, I was just expecting more after having my last handset for 30 months.
