Have you noticed how the older phones work better than the new ones?

I've noticed how everyone is going back to their older phones---I.e the 4400,4500, 6 series etc because the new stuff isn't working properly. Do you think its a Verizon software issue (blocking features, not enough testing etc), Quality Control issues on LG's side, a combination of the two or just the fact that new phones are trying to do so much that they are incapable of doing any one thing well.

I owned both the 4400 and 4500 and never had an issue with either one but they were strictly phones w/internet access on the 4500.

I've worked in the Computer industry for over 25 yeears. "Back in the day", when a phone was just a phone (I've still got a 4-year old, flawless, CDM9000), life was simpler. These new fangled phones suffer from all the same problems as a new software release (Microsoft, anyone?).
