Agreed. The phone wasn't up to Verizon's standards. Verizon has the strictest standards. They have to perform regardless of how nice they look. It's like a guy demanding that his female interests be more intellectual than good looking...but they can't be anything less than a 7 on the looks scale.

The phone is a great entry to the marketplace, but it doesn't really bring anything new to the table.
