Blade 2 Blade 2 Blade 2
hey everyone well today i was super excited because i was going to buy my Blade 900 and i stared calling sprint stores so I can find one it seems that every store is sold out. One of the girls told that they werent getting any new ones anymore because the a900 was being discontinued and she said that the new blade would be coming out in one month or two. I asked her how much and she said that somewhere around the same price. so lets see what happens.

you can cut the battery disipation down some by turning down backlight and put it in powersave mode.

Well...to make a long story short...my gf bought the phone. She has a problem where my picture will come up on the Sub LCD no matter who is calling.
The second problem was when she would send a text message, it would only work if she manually typed the number. If she selected it from the contacts list or recent list, it would not send. This was fixed with a phone software update.
A lot fo people in my area have reported the same problems, but I have not heard much else from the online community, therefore leading me to belie...

Totally agree Capt Farlow. the Blade SUXXXXX in areas of reception, battery life, and overall practicality IMO. The 920 does everything the Blade will AND has external memory, can hold it on your shoulder if your hands are full, and is 50.00 less with activation.

That's got to be BS 🙄

I agree...even my Sprint rep have heard nothing of this...
