I am not saying I want it to work in the subway, I am saying 850 is better anyway because it has better penetration for like buildings and underground parkinglots.
That's just it, for buildings, 1900 on Fido worked better than 1900 on Rogers. I have been told that the reason for this is because Fido's towers are closer together, but I'm not sure if that's true or not.
And neither 850 nor 1900 work well in subway stations without repeaters, and I would love to have subway support. It's very useful, cuz when you're in the subway station you're just standing there doing nothing anyway.

Does SE make any CDMA phones? If not what are the better CDMA phones out there? I see Samsung has a 2.0 megapixel phone out. Looks like I'll have to go with Verizon for it's vastly superior coverage area.
Who has the best coverage area in the US anyways? The Cingular guy tried to tell me they do, but out west it looks like crap compared to Verizon and the Sprint map is so hard to figure out because it looks like they have everything covered.

Another vote for the k750i here, mine arrived yesterday. Love the phone, everything that annoyed me about my t610 has been fixed on the k750i

i didnt see it where i got my k750i.
not sure about isync, i havent tried it yet, just tinkered with bluetooth transfers. good sound quality, great screen (if a bit small compared to those ginormous screens on v710's and motorola razrs, but it's bright, and SHARP. same ammt of colors as the new screens too so pictures look great.
i do have some gripes
1) the speaker in the phone (the speaker for conversations, not the ringtone/music speaker) isnt as loud as i would like, but bluetooth headset, or the free wired headsets are very loud.
2) when talking on the phone (conversation) the backlight stays on. it will dim a bit after a bit of inactivity, but never does the backlight turn off totally. that always bothers me, as i see the lcd as one of the biggest power wasters, and keeping it on during a long conversation (a night time conversation with unlimited minutes - backlight on for an unneccesarily long ammount of time)...
the battery life is very good still ... (even with the backlight staying on during calls) so it's not that big of a deal... just seems like a waste. hopefully a firmware fix will allow it to be turned off as an option.
hmm ... pretty much it..
