Best Phone around

I have had the phone since it was released for sale by Verizon, Oct 2007. Had to have it replaced once due to no data connectivity and once because the screen was damaged. Both cases Verizon took immediate care of the problems under extended warranty.
First and foremost the 12 buttons on the front make it easy to make phone calls by dialing the number without looking, since they are raised and large enough to use with big fingers. Secondly the buttons light up.
 for night time use.
Use portable Garmin GPS unit when GPS is needed, Blue tooth connected.
Wish another phone would come out with the same keyboard design with Win Mobile 6.5 or I will just have to upgrade the OS and wait.
Upgraded from Windows Mobile 6.0 to 6.1, fairly easy process, waiting for the 6.5 upgrade.

Pros

easy to use as a phone
WiFi connectivity
BlueTooth
Verizon
Windows Mobile and all of it's features and flexibility
One handed operation
Great touch screen
Head phone jack

Cons

Reboot needed weekly
Short battery life under heavy usage
Needs more RAM
No built in GPS

It hurts soo good

I've had this phone since the day it's come out. I have replaced it once and am trying to a second time due to problems. The first reason for replacement was the phone kept crashing on me ( freezing up and having to remove battery to restart ). It's a fun phone and I like it more than most the other phones they have to offer. I enjoy the phone overall, but now I'm having problems with the alarms on the phone. The alarms seem to not go off or go off at random times during the day. For example my alarm is set to go off at 10am and 10pm. Last night it didn't go off, this morning it did go off but at 12:02.

Pros

Quite a few but no one cares. People want to know If they shouldn't buy the phone, not if they should.

Cons

Horrible memory leaks causing the phone to get very laggy and having to restart it all the time.

I've had problems with the alarms not going off.

Mine had issues crashing.

This phone is nice, but if you see another phone you like just as much I would say go for the other. I like the phone but would be happier with another one if Verizon would purchase and release ones worth buying.

I have had my i760 for over a year.  I love the phone but I amon my thrid hanset due to warranty replacement for alingment issues and camera failure.  I was told by my Verizon rep thisweek that the phone has been placed on quarantene,at leastin our region.  They won't sell a new one.
