I like a big phone and this is a very nice size. Good price.
Easy to use menus, really like the pop up feature
Very good reception and clarity, Bluetooth V2 is excellent
3 G connectivity is very fast
This is a powerful phone and I have not used all its features yet
I do not know if it is as rugged as the marketing states, time will tell. The body is made of a very nice composite that has a slightly rubberized feel . The phone feels very solid.
Cons: The main screen could be a lot larger, there is plenty of room
The ringtone volume is a bit low.
No voice dialing and only 9 speed dials available. Not too much of a problem for me as I use the ATT Voice Dial feature.
I would like the ability to change the fonts in more displays other than the dialing display
None of these are deal breakers.

Is there any way to have completely "hands free dialing" from AT&T Rugby.
I had a Sony Ericson that I could make calls without taking my phone out of my pocket.
