Motorola W490

Great phone. Disappointed that half the features described in my instruction book (yes mine came with a printed instruction book) are not available on the phone. Some really cool things - just not on menus. Not sure if anyone is working on a flash for this yet.but please! and hurry!

Otherwise solid phone - awesome battery - incredible signal improvements from my v3. Sleek and much faster menus than razr. Although still playing around and customizing it, I highly recommend it.
