See... the "drawback" is what I like best about it

I think it looks really good with that.

The prototype originally was suppose to be GSM and I wanted to get one. But for some reason they went with CDMA..

I have had an A930 since August and it's a solid phone. A little bulky, but I always get, "What is that?"
