guys...my nokia e72 already dead during my fieldwork...dead becoz of the sea water...i forgot to take it out before i go swim..
so i wanna know, is dis fon is good for me, i'm thinking of buying galaxy sl to replace my e72, but my work as geologist required a tough fon like defy...
can we delete motoblur without rooting it coz i dont know anything bout root n i afraid i will brick it when rooting, n how long the battery life...my e72 can get to 4 days for normal usage...
The defy should be the perfect phone phone you. Water resistant and can survive a submersion provided all the ports and covers are closed properly. And the phone don't actually look rugged at all unless you tell people it is

Battery life depends on your usage really. But with a 1530mah battery, it's considered one of the largest battery in an android device
about motoblur, it's not supported outside the USA so you don't need to register for the service. But the motoblur widgets are still there though but just install a 3rd party launcher like launcherpro or something then you're good to go

I guess different phone have different capability cpu, mine can run on 56/1100 with no unstable problem...
btw, I'm still using liqiudarc now... will be upgrade to CM7 soon... maybe when beta 7 release

Same like pc overclocking I guess. Different units have different performance characteristics. And CM7 beta 6 is considered 99% working already so you can use it as your everyday rom no problem.
