do you all remember the samsung giveaway last year in november 2009? where samsung was giving away thousands of behold 2's every single hour of the day? i just thought about why they gave away so many bh2's, because of the fact that they knew they weren't gonna release a 2.x update for the device. so they decided to have a giveaway and just give us a phone that they just happen to create without caring about improving it. and although i was one of the lucky ones to receive a free behold 2, i was glad and just knew that it was a matter of time before the bh2 would get a 2.x update. i feel so digusted towards samsung for doing this. it was a very low down dirty dog thing of them to do. i hope they lose money and realize what they have done and how many people they have disappointed. :mad:
 
I got my behold 2 because i had so many problems with my old handset (samsung T-749 highlight) that it had to be replaced that T-mobile "upgraded" me to this crappy a** phone so I got it for $10 pretty much.

its a huge improvement over the highlight...you really shouldn't be complaining at all!! you didn't buy it it was given to you. i'm sorry to be a prick but get over it. a lot of us actually paid top dollar and have a right to be pissed. you didn't pick the phone you didn't buy the phone...YOU GOT A FREE UPGRADE! you should be happy.

No not really. My highlight never formatted its SD card by itself the screenlock always worked and did not require a $30 dollar data plan.

How is it I have no reason to complain but the ones that won one do?

Furthermore I was offered the Blackberry 9700 too but took the behold 2 instead because it seemed more tech advanced and was promised a 2.X update by the salesmen so i took it.

I paid $170 to upgrade to the Highlight plus $20 for every time it was replaced (4 times) for shipping plus another $50 (with shipping) to upgrade to the Behold 2 less than 2 months later dumping the accesories I had for the highlight ($20 gel case and $15 car charger).

So in a span of 2 months I spent over $300. And I can't complain?

I would Complain, after all you came from a Lemon to another lemon lmao...
either way only Time will tell..

This phone doesn't require a data plan... that is 100% optional.
