...years later: still no battery breakthrough...

Badger, it's Friday the 13th today, hence the Jasons on the articles.

And btw, I like how the pics are sans-Jason at first read but are modified to Jason later on throughout the day. Love FT13 on Engadget...

That's what I was looking at. Bell and Telus finally have HSPA up and running and I need a GSM phone in the near future as I'm taking off to Europe. Wouldn't mind travelling with one of these...

Ya, that's why those 'Where's the Beef' ads never worked out...

Totally agree. It looks like there is a lot of open real estate that could have made the screen perfect. I like this as a first draft, but I'd really like to see what the next incarnation of this is. Would buy it in a second...

Ya, I do the same thing. Because I'm in Canada, I always get trapped in a 3 year contract. But what I do is keep my new phone for as long as it takes to see a better one come out, buy the new one at full price (usually $500), and sell my old one on Ebay for about $400. As long as you upgrade relatively often (once or twice a year), your current phone is still in pretty good shape and still in demand, so you get a good price from the 'Bay.

Insky,

I appreciate your concern for this guys' lost music, but I suspect that you're the last person on earth that still pays for it...

I would've just tied it to the cat's collar and head off on my journies. No way I'd let the old folks track me when I was a lad...

I can't wait for Bell to get the new network going. I'm heading off to Europe next year (for a year) and I'd love to have a 'world phone' that I sync'd with my computer before I head out there. I love my Touch Pro, but as CDMA, it's useless to me out there...

Strictly designed for those who hate getting laid...
