  It looks damned impressive! The lack of a microSD slot kills it for me, though.

  Whatevs!!!!
  
  Just a superficial makeover and it will no doubt increase in retail price to well over 1300 bucks I imagine........even though the phone can be bought for 800 retail.
  
  Add to that, this thing will be a useless piece of crap 2 years down the road to the vast majority of overzealous young cell phone users who will retrospectively be kicking themselves in a "lesson learned" situation for having popped the cash up front for this. Likely not gonna be offered for 299.00 w/2 yr contract.
  
  This thing is cool but seriously, you people and your cell phones. Ya can't put 'em down ever, or live without them and feel lost when you forget them at home.
  
  DITCH THE CELL. Been without one for over 2 years now and it's the best, most liberating feeling not being tethered or constantly connected. BTW, I'm a 43 year old network engineer, married and love playing video games on the computer only so I'm not some of fuddy duddy.
