Firstly, anyone buying a phone wants to use the item as a phone. Secondly, if the phone signal drops out more often than not, and one cannot make or receive a phone call, those particular phones are somewhat useless no matter what the phone can do in the way of applications. I live on Philip Island in Australia; therefore, I need a phone that has good signal strength. I have a Nokia N97, one N95, a Motorola A1000 and an IPone 3GS the list goes on. All brand new, all never used longer than a few days. This is due as like most people including yourself look at the apps check the phone out on the internet and we tend to over trust the phone seller when they state that one will have no problems using the phone on the Island. The only phone that works where I live without any problems clear as a bell is the IPone. I have never read reviews telling me that they took the phone out to the desert and it worked. Does this particular phone have an outstanding signal strength and a spectacular range? Will it work on my Island. From now on any phone review should include a great deal of the review dedicated to signal strength and range. Cheers everybody just email me if you want a cheap mobile phone.
