I don't know about all of this either. My call volume is fine and I do need it a little louder than some probably (aint getting any younger). I use Better keyboard which works pretty good for me. I rarely drop calls except going through areas where it's a normal occurence. On occasion, though not to often, I will have a problem sending texts but power cycling will always take care of it. You might also want to get Advanced Task Killer. I usually only use that when things start to slow down but overall I think it's a great phone. I do wish it was a little faster but then there aren't that many fast Android phones yet and definitely not for T-Mo (don't get me started on the whole N1 topic). Obviously the camera will have its limitations without a flash but if you have enough light, it does decent work. It does irritate me that these manufacturers have not seen fit to come out with some more high end Android devices but such is life. I really like Android and the myTouch is sufficient until something better comes along.
