I got this back in April, when our Sprint contracts were renewed. Here’s some specs from the official page:

Camera Resolution: 1.3 megapixel
Music Player: MP3, AAC, AAC+, 3GPP, 3GPP2 and MPEG3
Mobile TV: Y
FM Radio: N
Mobile Printing: PictBridge
Messaging Push to talk: N
Instant Messaging: Y
Connectivity Bluetooth: Y
Internet HTML Browser: N
User Memory: 16MB
External Memory: 64MB
Touch Screen: N

My personal analysis:

Specs:

• 190 Texts in Inbox
• 50 Texts in Outbox
• 500 Contacts
• 20 Missed/Outgoing/Incoming Calls each

Pros:

• Large screen, always displayed
• Nice buttons, easily pressed, hidden when in pocket
• Videos as ringtones
• Custom wallpaper
• Comes with 64MB micro SD card
• Bluetooth enabled
• Thin, fits nicely into pocket

Cons:

• No direct headphone/mic jack, uses adapter in port
• Ports have attached covers–annoying
• Low quality speakers, cracks at high volumes
• Atteanae is internal and where most people hold it
• Texting firmware trys to predict next word
• Texting firmware trys to use most used words more often
• Blind texting almost impossible
• Lots of features that require payment to Sprint
• Hard to text while charging
• Most options in phone disabled when internet is disabled with provider
• Can’t use mp3s as ringtones–video work around

Overall, It’s a pretty nice phone, and I think it could be a lot better with a few firmware adjustments. If I ever figure out how to hack/change it, I’ll update this ;).
