i seem to notice this same problem you are having too. so far as i know it is likely the phone itself and i kept exchanging it but still doesnt seem to do any good.

I'm in Omaha, Nebraska. Yeah I think i'll pass on the reception enhancers. They really didn't seem to help very much at all.

How do you get the new software? I was on
the phone with Cingular all morning telling
them I wanted the new software...I just got
my phone last week, and it has the old version in it....they told me basicly that I didn't
know what I was talking about, there was not
any other software....any ideas? I'd sure
appreciate it!
