I swung by the Sprint store yesterday. Seems the data connection issue is a known issue of the phone but not widespread and if you have equipment insurance you can get a replacement (mine is coming Monday). My trackpad is also defective. The dropped calls were, mostly, caused because I had roaming set to automatic and not home network only so it was hitting all the other networks' towers before Sprint and dropping randomly during calls.

I forgot to mention to the tech that USB functionality was FUBAR'd sometimes. But I've seen a few people posting about spotty performance for USB.

I'm hoping, HOPING, the battery life might be a bit better on the new phone I'm getting. Maybe it'll have a 1500 mAh battery instead of the 1440.

If only I hadn't gone into the store after work I might've been in more tech-oriented mindset (I work as a tech for a large casino corporation so after work mindset is not for talking tech).

Wish there were an easier way to root the moment so I could kill all the pre-packaged apps. Screw moxier, bejeweled, and the Sprint stuff. Might play with custom ROMs on this soon-to-be-replaced phone so I have some experience working with the tools so I don't risk my shiny new one when it comes in.

I'm rambling. Lunch break over!
