Ok too all. I download ringtones all the time. I watch videos all the time. I just got the free mission impossible 1, 2, & 3 on the memory card in the mail. When qwerty freezes you can hit the right buttons and it still works just fine. This phone is pretty legit.

This phone sounds great but lacks way too much. Not being able to open attachments in e-mails, can’t download ringtones/games or anything else for that matter, you can’t add new widgets or apps. It had lots of potential, but now I’m just waiting til Alltel becomes Verizon so I can look for a new phone.

this phone sucks sounds real nice in the desription. but alltel made the phone basicly locked up tighter the a masked murder sentenced to life in prison. it has brew which in other words its called gay. you cant get free ring tones cant get free games cant download java or flash player the qwerty keyboard freezes and thw next thing you have 3 letters, you cant get or add new widgets. basically its phone text and html internet. but they hyped it up to be so much more then that. a perfect competitor against the iphone and bb storm. well its no match my phone would lose its lithiom battery faster then me talking to my mother on it. overall dont get this phone wait till alltel is verizon and get the bb storm thats got it ALL!
