Don christie just showed me his LG Rumor2 from Sprint, and I have to say
it's very impressive.  it has a slide out chiclet style keyboard for
entering your contacts or text messages, and it says it has, besides
contacts, a calendar, alarm clock,  and notepad apps.

The speech seemed to be a clear female voice, and not provided by one of
the big name cell phone talking programs like talx or mobile speak.

I can't tell you how much money I've saved by having a virgin mobile
phone, I think we spend $60 a year to own one.

thanks Betsie.
