You should make another review once the IS upgraded to Gingerbread.

QUOTE(exkaizen @ Apr 13 2011, 10:28 PM) yeah thats the thing... means that most of android phone is not a good phone? since most of it doesn't have front camera... A lot of design doesn't have it MIGHT BE due to software/hardware/budget restriction or LESS ppl use it...  A quiz... How many android phone have front camera... here in Malaysia? for me..mayb i will buy another cheap phone that have 3g call...if really need it..then use arc for surfing+take picture...

Just bought one for my wife and its superb, screen in crispier compared to dhd, photo is nice in low light condition, video not jerking like dhd, and continuous focus during video recording is automatic unlike dhd where you need to touch firs. So.. I kinda want one too now, or should i wait for SEXplay?

Anyone understand what SE meant in the warnings? So is the warranty void or not? All they said was "Please note that you may void the warranty of your phone if you unlock the boot loader." The word 'may' is quite ambiguous. Does it mean if the warranty claim is not due to user fault (flashing ROMs, radios etc) then they will still honour the warranty agreement?
Is there an option to relock the bootloader?

Here's to hoping that the community will fix it with a custom ROM after unlocking the bootloader. SE's strength is never in the software department. Im hoping that with the unlocked bootloader, devs can start porting more slick UIs and improved software performance ROMs onto the Arc

Seems like Arc still not utilizing the full potential of Gingerbread and I guess this performance issue will be addressed in future firmware update.
