Amen about FS and their bugs, they get in too big of a hurry and you pay a big bill for bad upgrades. My question, why won't companies keep qwirty keyboards? I find it easier to navigate a real not virtual keyboard. I don't have a lot of money either for a big display. I saw a display at the ATT Store for the Iphone. Gees, it is kind of big and comberson.
