Trying to play around with it, but I think I am going to take it back.

Here's why:

1. Bluetooth. I thought I would be able to use bluetooth with my computer with this phone, so far I can't figure out how to do it.

2. Font on screen is way to small. I can barely read anything.

3. I bought a carrying case for it because I didn't want to break it, but the carrying case doesn't even allow you to use the phone while it's in the case, it seems like messing around with taking it out of the case all the time is going to break it.

I'm really worried about the camera breaking or the outside screen, have you had any close calls on either of these fronts? I am getting used to the keyboard, but the space bar is definately poorly placed, I always hit it thinking I am hitting clear, and can never find the space bar.

Still haven't been able to get the e-mail to work correctly.
