I heard the camera was just okay...what is your impression?

I am a premiere member, but wont be eligible for a new contract until Sept...hopefully the price will drop some and any kinks will be taken care of..if there are any.

As an upgrade, it was only $200, which really isn't bad for a smart phone like this.

I actually haven't used either camera.

There is an 8MP on the back and a 1.3MP on the front for video chatting, self pics, etc.

My first two cameras were 3MP and 6 MP. This phone is 8MP and 1 MP.

I have some choice words for you...

I went through the EVP site to get it and still haven't gotten the email confirmation of shipping. I was expecting to get it on Monday, but now it looks like it might be Wednesday or so. I'm not thrilled with my service on this one, but I'm still excited about the phone.

8MP makes great photos. Right? MP count is what makes great photos. Right?
Grinning.
Downloading movies to a phone is what made AT&T start charging for downloading.

Have you used mobile hotspot function yet to hook up a computer using it?

I could replace my palm pre and my 4g air card with this phone if it works decently.

The mobile hotspot feature is an extra $30/month. I may try it if I ever root the phone, but I won't use it enough to pay for the privilege.
