My New Slider Phone

So I decided it was time to upgrade my cell phone to one with a full keyboard–a QWERTY keyboard, to you nerds out there–and after much searching, finally found one I liked. I was eligible for a free upgrade a year or so ago, but none of the so-called free phones were anything more than the RAZR phone I already owned. And the way I figured it, if I was going to teach myself how to use a new phone, it better be a step up.

While the SAMSUNG A767 wasn't on the free phone list–tho thanks to my sister, I got mine for my birthday–it was worth every penny! It's what's called a slider phone, one where the keyboard is hidden behind a front that otherwise looks like your basic cell phone.

This phone is way cool! Tho it came in other fun colors such as blue and lime green, I was immediately drawn to the crisp, clean look of the white one and loved the red trim on it as well. The size is right and the keyboard is all there. Gone are the days of hitting the number 2 three times for the letter "C". I can now text nearly the same speed as my 18 year old neice. Okay, maybe one day.

It has 3G capability but fortunately it's not required to operate the phone, something iPhone users can't claim. It has a ton of other features but for me, having a full keyboard with which to text makes this the best birthday gift a girl could get! Oh, and did I mention it has a "reject call" feature? Love it!
