Spring loaded slider... any problems??
I was checking out this phone at the tmobile store today and the slider feels slightly spring loaded. Has anyone had any problems with this sliding feature as far as reliability? I'm afraid of paying several hundred for a phone thats gonna break after 6 months of mid to heavy usage.
Another question was if you have to lock the keypad or if it automatically locks when you slide the phone closed? If the phone is closed and the call button is bumped a couple of times while in my pocket will it make an unexpected call?
Thanks

Hey! I have had this phone for about 3 months now. And I am still loving it! I haven't had any problems w/the spring loaded slider part. And I use my phone ALOT!! It's a very good, stready phone! And yes the phone's keypad locks by itself when you slide it closed. So it won't make any unexpected calls. You can use the phone while it's closed you just press the side volume keys or green "send" button for 2 seconds and then the "unlock" soft key button for 2 seconds and you can use it wile it's closed to make calls or take pictures etc. After like 60 seconds of it not being used it will go back to "lock mode". You should go back to that T-Mobile store and ask if they have a "live demo" of the phone that actually turns on & off etc. So you can...
