So disappointed

After my Razor died, I was so excited about the Hint.  I had really enjoyed Motorola's product and I couldn't wait to get the new Hint to use the qwerty and the new upgrades. I have been sorely disappointed.  I have had to return the phone 3 times with the same randomly shutting itself down and unlocking the keys issues.  I received a "new" one in hopes that I had just gotten a "bad" one. Well the "new" one randomly stops recording videos and shuts down, and its having some sort of issue with the text messaging.  It seems almost as if it doesn't have enough memory or just plain  "umph" to get things done.  I would not recommend this product at all.. Please save yourself the frustration and disappointment, and pick something else.. 

Pros

has a qwerty

Cons

Randomly shuts off, unlocks locked keys, stops video and shuts off, text messaging issues,and A and P are hard to use on the qwerty.

Update to a Previous Review

This is an update to the review titled "Awesome phone with a few quirks"

I have found the solution to the shutting off issue!

Open the phone up, place two pieces of paper around the LONG sides of the battery, put the battery back in place, and voila: the phone won't shut off when you set it down. I have actually dropped it standing up from a chair, and it didn't shut off. the issue was the battery compartment being too large for the battery, and the slightest nudge made it lose connection with the contacts for a nano second, either making the phone shut off, or restart itself.

I now love this phone. I'm still getting comments about how cool it is, even meeting new people over it. Who knew?

Pros

The paper has helped, and the phone no longer shuts off
The music player is awesome, I've had some time to play around with it

Cons

Still the issue with the dust
The phone is sometimes very slow
