4g sim card
Could someone let me know if this phone uses a micro sd 4g card like the droid razr. Or a standard 4g card like the rest of the lte devices?

The Slide Out Keyboard Version of the Droid Charge
I'd like to trade in my Charge in for this one.
You can always open a 2nd line, and have some dummy EMI # put on the Droid Charge line so you don't have to pay for data twice.
I've been considering this phone myself recently, it's *FREE* at Radio Shack with a 2yr contract, verrry, very intriguin...

Unbelievable...
Apple is suing because the menu slides side to side instead of the traditional Android vertical slide? Unreal. As if this is going to jeopardize Apple's sales in any way. As if people go into the store and say "I only want phones that have a side-to-side swiping menu.
As I've said before, regardless of my preference in phone manufacturers and carriers, this constant bickering between companies is getting absolutely petty and sickening.

Will it get Icecream Sandwitch?
I would like to know if the new Android 4.0 (aka ice-cream sandwich) will be available on this phone when it rolls out.

What this phone is missing
After looking around on the web about this phone, the following shortcomings need to be addressed in a future release:
- No indicator lamp
- Slow processor, phone freezes sometimes
- Nice screen, but still below the new 540x960 standard.
- Camera is not sharp, subpar compared to competitors.
Also no HD (not even 720p) video recording. But that's a minor issue for me. I'd rather take lower resolution but better quality and faster processing.

Ice Cream Sandwich
I wonder if this phone will be able to upgrade to Android 4.0?

Epic LTE?
Not that I'm complaining. The Epic wasn't a bad phone. It just suffered from a few flaws. LTE and a newer build might make this phone a good score for Samsung.
