Re:They should make phones that actually work (Score 1)

Yeah, back then my phone was about as much as yours. I'm not a big fan of flip phones in general, and especially not a fan of the looks of the startac but I do have friends who have good experiences with them. Sanyo and Samsung are supposed to be good quality too though. My friend still has his old sanyo (same as my first) and has never had trouble with it and many of my friends have had the samsung flip-phones for a long time. I am noticing a disturbing trend, friends with old phones seem to have better reception than friends with new phones, what a stupid trend!
