How can you tell it looks buggy & unstable from a 1:36 video The screen looked responsive & it's made of plastic yes but you have not held one have you? So how can you say it looks plasticky?? Every phone in a photo which is plastic can look just plastic

I have used one, it was more unstable than an J132 and had cheap plastic casing like the BB Curve 8520. Every mobile looks responsive when on video but when I was using the phone it was terrible!! the phone was slow. In my life I will never purchase such a peice of CRAP. theres nothing good to it.

Biggest load of bollox I've ever heard. Remember the first few X10 videos released onto the 'net?
Oh yeah, the phone looked sluggish...
How can you compare an Android phone to a J132?
It's running ANDROID, the SAME OS AS ABOUT 100 DIFFERENT MODELS, just with a light skin overhauled ontop. And if it is as bad as you say, then I'm sure anyone browsing this forum has the brain capacity and knowledge to be able to install a vanilla ROM, even if it does require a new thread and an hour or two of research.

You should know by now retail outlets dont know a thing about the phones they sell or when they're coming into store.

Id love to know why everyone like Bonovox and yourself hate Android. Since ive never owned such a phone my experience is limited by the amount of time friends and family let my play with theirs.

Please, PM me reasons why if you do not wish to air your rants here for fear of Android fanboy backlash !!

A bunch of Androids follow you down the street at night, whispering We'll get you to like us like a mantra

The truth is that Bono is an Apple fan boy... he admitted this to me two weeks ago when we were smoking cigars in Kansas on a trip round the world
