Overpriced junk

This phone was to replace a Motorola I530. Big mistake on our companies part. The sound is like talking in a 50 gal drum. PTT is worse. The clip holds the phone with the display out. Won't be long and it will be unreadable. Casio makes watches, not phones.
Battery issues

Well we are about to return the 3rd GzOne phone to Verizon due to battery problems, the first one lasted about 4 days and it would not stay charged, we exchanged it and it lasted about a week,now we have had this one about 2 weeks and today a fully charged phone went dead after 5 hours. And my husband hardly uses our minutes, so there is hardly any talk time on his phone. I really hope they can fix this problem because he really needs a tough phone, and the only issue we have is with the battery.
Welllllllllll

Well this fell short of what I thought I payed a lot for... the text features are just a zero. You can't change the sizes.. kind of Club. An over priced cub at that...
Hard to get around in the phone what poor quality sound and the visual part is very poor.
Not bad, sound and battery life seem to have been fixed.

I've had mine for a week and this review sums it up fairly well. I would add that the compass, while useless, is cool ok, so I'm easily amused but at least it doesn't cost another $10/ month to use. I've read a lot of reviews hacking on the sound quality and was pretty worried. So far mine has been great (Software version V9560M09). Sound quality on both ends is excellent. Vibrate mode is nearly useless. I could tell my LG VX8300 was vibrating from the next room; you can miss the Casio in your front pocket. Apparently the Boulder is vibration proof from the inside as well as from the outside. The clam shell seam is fairly smooth near the bottom of the phone making it a bit of a pain to open one handed. The flashlight is useful but It would be nice if it could be turned on without opening the phone. SD card access is heinously slow. Where the LG was fast to load pictures, the Casio is painful bordering on useless. Overall I'm satisfied but hoping for some useful hacks to appear.
