The whole silent/vibe thing has never been an issue either. The switch on top toggles between silent/non-silent very easily. In the sounds & notifications section, you can choose how each event should be handled in each state. If you like you can have an event vibe or not in either or both silent and non-silent.
But I see what you're saying. It doesn't support multiple sound profiles like many cell phones do, though I do enjoy the simplicity of the hard switch on top. |
I have to say that after owning the phone for over a year now I have no problems with the switch on the top and do enjoy the simplicity of going from silent to non silent. As for BT - I haven't bothered with it as I found it not that great. I certainly couldn't be bothered turning it off an on with the phone every time I wanted to use it to save battery life and I didn't like the idea of having another product to charge on a regular basis. I have stuck with the old cord ear piece which is more than adequate.
As I said...other than a few niggles, (see my other long post) it's the best phone I have ever had. Where as most people would tell you that their phone would be used 80 - 90% as a phone and 10 - 20% other features. I would say I am about 70% PDA and 30% phone and I am a very high end phone user. As mentioned in the post above one of the great features with windows 6 and/or the Three service is that you can download your messages as an email and play them in windows media. Very simple to do. As easy as downloading any other email. As a result you don't have to pay to collect your messages. This probably saves me $30 a month. Hopefully that function won't be removed in the future as it no doubt costs the phone companies a fortune.
I have to admit I am a little addicted, I think my wife thinks I'm more dedicated to my Palm 750 than her at times.
