That's the whole point of options. I personally hate using physical keyboards, but I know there are those that can't do without it. The 4" screen and size of the device will accommodate both soft and hard keyboards very well.

from the Engaget pictures with the phone in Night Mode the pictures are great in low light unlike majority if not all other cellphones.

Not just the Tmo version is lacking it. Actually all 3 of them are lacking other than the Sprint 4G version.

No just the at&t Captivate and the TMO Vibrant don't have LED Flash. The Verizon Fascinate has a LED Flash as does Sprint's Epic. It seems there is confusion out on the other specs like front facing camera depending on what web site you look at. Some sites show pictures of the back of the phones and you can clearly see the LED flash on the Fascinate.

Before I laid hands on the EVO and HD2 I could not live without a keyboard. I've lost all desire for a KB since then and I think 4" is right on the money. Also I think the Vibrant and Fascinate are the best looking and the Epic is giving my bad memories of the Instinct s30 8-X Vibrant FTW!

Yes, I love the way the Vibrant looks. I really want a keyboard on my phone like the Epic, but it's kinda ugly from the pictures...but then again, I've been mistaken for pictures and seen phones in actual life and they look much better then. Gonna have to compare a bit...

6. remixfa posted on 02 Jul 2010, 11:38 0 0
then what is it for? I thought it was for the 4g speeds as well.
8. zerglisk posted on 02 Jul 2010, 12:30 0 0
it was actually for tethering Wi-Fi to other devices, but later when 4G activates (in your area), you later get benefits from 4G.

the 10 dollars is for 4G speeds... the wi-fi is 29.99 a month
17. paynekiller posted on 04 Jul 2010, 12:56 0 0
the $10 extra is for 4G and to remove the 3G data cap

A 5mpx high-end phone with no flash for camera? Those versions suck.

It's a PHONE. If you want a digital camera, buy a digital camera.

i agree... just sucks that such a high end phone, that is labeled as a multimedia monster lacks a led or flash of anykind... i guess no multimedia recorded at night/dark.... too bad att is just sitting on the Sony ericsson x10(been approved since March).... same specs save for the screen type and having a much better camera with flash, and will have HD video recording (same as on the Vivaz-with continual autofocus) in sept/oct when the 2.1 update rolls out...
