I had a sprint phone come back in one day when i was still at Best Buy. The woman was ENRAGED. She said that the phone overheated to the point where you couldn't hold it up to your ear. I asked her how long this took and she said "not long, maybe an hour". Who the hell sits on their cell phone continuously for hours at a time? And why does a 16 year old need a cell? At least she's ok though.

Some people do. With 1X CDMA the battery will last a long time, and CDMA enhanced encryption is easier to be sure about than just about anything else you could add a scrambler to.

I use to worry that my old school Motorola Digital Lite would burn me. Yes it got that hot in about 10mins of use.

looked like this

compared to the brick phones, it was light and compact :chuckles:
