not that anyone can find this phone but if you dont care about the web or updating your twitter page every 5 minutes this is this phone has the easiest interface you can ever find. the best feature is the pop-up which answers calls when popped up and locks the phone when pushed down. i cant stand the clamshell phones you have to open with two hands. 'unlocking' the phone is done by squeezing two buttons on each side of the phone, so its easy to unlock but wont unlock accidentally- like other phones that unlock at the press of a button or touching the screen. no matter what button you press or hold, when the phone is "down" nothing will happen except the backlight will turn on. its got everything within one button push- speakerphone, silent mode, voice dialing, hotkey (i use as a calculator), voicemail/text. its also got a 'get it now' hot key and internet key- $5 a month for news/sports. calendar/notepad/alarm can be opened with three keys. ive never even used the internet and ive only sampled the free trials of games. the ringtones the phones come with stink except for the 'drum solo' ring which is rockin. the reception and call clarity is very good. so is the battery life. I have the extended battery which beefs up the phone weight but i can still cram it into its case. all in all ive had this phone since it first came out and ive passed over every phone since because none matched the ease of use the 330 has, and i dont want/need the internet. even if no one ever reads this i will be happy in reporting that even though the phone is obsolite the design is magnificent in its simplicity.
i think that you should put this phone back on the display i really like it and just because other people rated it bad service it totally should not be taken off! i like the metro model
Seriously, people always say 'how cool' when I pop it up, but honestly that is about as cool as it gets. It good basic phone. I got it because I simply wanted to make calls-no frills, and I can say it meets those requirements.
The one thing I would like to see is the ability to drag and drop from the PC for new ringtones out of the box. It requires a software ($) and drivers to do that. I downloaded a freeware that said it work, but I could never get the drivers installed properly. There is only one ringtone I can tolerate on it and I was hoping to get more ringtone options.
