Samsung i8510 Innov8- Where have you gone?

As for me, yes I finally decided to go with Ebay and get the Innov8 (i8510). My opinion of it is mixed- but mostly positive.

Pros- Amazingly good camera. My pics a pretty friggin' nice. Camera even has a cool version of 'panorama'- this one allows you to take the first picture of whatever- then you just move slowly and the phone guides you how to move and IT takes the pictures then stitches them together. (only downside at 640x420 res.) But you can do about a 270 deg picture! Great for big areas! Large amount of space built into the phone (8gigs standard can find 16 gig models too). Call quality is fine. Wifi is fine. Runs symbian. Uses a REAL headphone jack (3.5 mm)! Nice!

Cons: SLOW! S-L-O-W! Can take up 8 secs before it reacts sometimes after pressing a button. Not nearly as customizable as other samsungs. Poor vibration on silent. Only vibrates once- really stupid as this is the only way to notice you have a text or call! Not support from Samsung. they thrown this phone by the way side it seems. So future updates are slim to nill.

Overall satisfied with the phone. but yeah, I would like toe try out the touch screens now- only because I think they'd be more responsive (speed wise).

I will say though- rugged phone- it has taken a beating from me already. Only froze up on me 1 time in the past month & considering all the torture I've done...that's pretty good.

Personal downside- who ever I bought the phone from- wiped it clean of everything but their music and 1 ugly arse picture of someone. Meaning I get their music (meh for most) and NO GAMES! DOH! Now I need to find some...

So decide form there if it's what you want. I can tell you more details if you ever need.
