Poor Reception.
Sitting in bed with my GF's G1 and my Behold 2 her phone had good reception and the behold had nearly none. Half the time I don't get phone calls. They go straight to VM. My roommate's BB pearl gets double the reception mine does. My other roommate's Nokia gets even better reception. All on the T-mo network. Another friend who has a G1 same thing, he has reception I don't.
Anyone else have this same experience?

Not to mention the other problems I have had. This is my 3rd Behold II by the way. Been replaced twice and back to Samsung for 3 weeks once. All of them have had this problem.
 
That's the nature of the beast. My reception is pretty spotty at home and I'm in an area that even my friend's Nexus One gets full bar 3g. I do better on E when I'm around the city, but it's still pretty ridiculous. The other thing I noticed is that if you so much as look at the phone when it's receiving a call, it just goes straight to VM. Welcome to the BH2.
