i have this phone. It is NICE... i love the nice clear screen, the camera is pretty nice.

CONS:
-when in camera mode, it is is kinda laggy.
-when you are in mega pixel mode, you can't zoom.
-calendar only allows three notes per day and you can't put a **** alarm for it.
-phone side jack cover is a PITA to pull off so you can use handsfree headset.
-no speaker phone or bluetooth.

PROS:
-nice big clear QVGA screen. i put all my personal pictures on there for my wall paper and they come out with amazing clarity.
-phone is light as hell... much much lighter than my old/smaller moto v600.
-camera shots are very clear.
-video capture function.
-SD card slot (up to 512 MB), also supports MMC(up to 128MB)
-the user interface is really easy to use. i pretty much figured out the UI in about a couple of minutes. if it takes longer, then you are a retard.

-WAP browsing speeds are freaking awsome. My moto v600 wap speed was slower than a dead man walking.

I hope this helps. In my opinion, it is a pretty good phone.

Just to clarify on the zoom thing he complained about. The phone only allows you to zoom in lower resolutions because it uses a large pic for better quality. If you try to zoom in vga mode for example, the phone uses 640x480 pixel of a megapixel image to get better clarity. Otherwise, the pics would look terrible. (I may be off on the details but this is the main reason for not being able to zoom in megapixel mode)

here is a quote from mobileburn.com:

"Sharp is to be commended for implementing a digital zoom that makes sense. You can not zoom at the two highest resolution modes, but you can at the rest. The zoom is real when used this way, no pixel resampling and associated loss of detail. Sharp makes full use of the large sensor size here."

Hope I explained it well enough

I like it. I am thinking of getting one as a backup for my eventual smartphone purchase.
