seems like u took the same route as me, but from e398 i go from e2 to e6 then a1200.

defy is a great phone, the size is just nice for the palm, not too bulky and quite light. its just that damn earpiece issue that can drag it down. anyway, i probably have to pay rm60 for the earpiece repair sad.gif

you're using the defy now? Isnt the earpiece covered by warranty? blink.gif

i miss my E2 weyh, can play GBA games nicely with the extra side buttons laugh.gif now the battery is dead rclxub.gif

I don't have my phone yet! T.T

have to wait about a month or 2 to get enough money for it.

QUOTE(sanosizo @ Jan 5 2011, 04:12 PM)
both singapore and malaysia set dont have motoblur so it should be snappy enough.

that froyo is not fully complete yet. so far i'm satisfied with 2.1. i already can do wifi tethering (3g mobile hotspot) with it.

so it runs on clean android? O.o

thanks you so much sanosizo!
nice to hear that the keyboard is nice. because the girl that i'll be giving the defy to never use touchscreen device before.. kinda worry that she will have a hard time typing sms..

and i dont think u need lanyard on a phone that doesnt mind to be dropped. no?  tongue.gif
*
Just gave back the phone to my friend. Damn i miss that phone now! cry.gif

Yeap the keyboard is nice. The 3.7" screen size is just nice for landscape qwerty keyboard. In portrait format i'd prefer to use swype though. So much more convenient to type 1 hand with Swype xD

and usually i connect some lanyard accessory to make pulling the phone out of my jeans easier laugh.gif

QUOTE(tyenfei @ Jan 6 2011, 03:12 PM)
ya, i notice it on the first day i got it.

now still thinking what can i do to make a lanyard hole.

i know Defy can tahan drop from our hand ... but not from over 20 meters height. just in case hmm.gif


Added on January 6, 2011, 3:14 pm
irenic,

just make sure the girl not going to use touchscreen with her finger nail  laugh.gif

else she will complaint to u :" this phone tak boleh pakai lah"  doh.gif

Actually, Malaysian Defy doesn't have Blur inside. Thats why theres no 'Blur' word on the back cover like in those you see on review sites lol.
