I think you can probably read about most of the Eris issues or "flaws" just by reading the threads throughout this forum. I think the biggest complaint has been battery life. Now with the release of the new bigger batteries that is no longer an issue, but it does become an added expense if it is an issue for you.
We don't mind helping you out but you really need to search. There are MANY threads about this topic.last thing i know there are probably threads on this somewhere but wen will the eris get the software update? or is it still unknown
Reading here, you'll get a good sense of the issues that people are having ... but not necessarily a sense of how prevalent those issues are. Remember that people who have problems are far more likely to come to places like this, if only to vent. Most of the time, when people are happy, they won't bother to say anything.
And I think the vast majority of Eris owners are pretty happy. I know I am.
.......... At the very least let people know that what they said helped. It really makes people want to keep doing it.

Judging a product only on the negatives posted in a forum is like judging it based on all the negative reviews on CNET. There will always be some idiot that is pissed off his phone won't make toast or help his love life. It was never inteded to do that, but they will still be upset and post something negative about it to make it look bad.
The best thing anyone can do is to read and see what others are saying. If you see problems then find out if it is real or user error. There aren't to many people that join forums to say how much they love their phone. Also, if you get anything from the stuff others post try to stick around and help out too. At the very least let people know that what they said helped. It really makes people want to keep doing it.
The ris is a great phone. And once the 2.x update comes it will be even better. I think the biggest complaint you will find is the battery life. I'm still havinga bit of an issue with it but i'm trying to be patient seeing as how i've only had the phone for about a week. Other than that i think the eris and the android platform is top notch.
