Great phone / device.

the most unusual technical achievement? you can hear yourself talk, like an old wired phone. So, unlike a regular cellphone in which you shout b/c you can't hear yourself, you don't shout.

Lightning fast, trim o/s (unlike bb, with tons of legacy bs), true multi-tasking available.

Have to claim ultimate embarrassment that I didn't know it wasn't international. Good thing I'm not going to Australia for 3 weeks in Jan. Wait a minute...
