The worst wireless/mobile/cell phone EVAH!!!!!!
My official vote is now my current phone- the LG Dare. Slick and trendy on the outside- buggy and unreliable on the inside. I'm getting SO tired of people telling me that they called me for an hour and never heard a ring- just my voicemail. Meanwhile on my end (with a good signal) the phone sits there looking all shiny and functional, but doesn't utter a peep. Oh, then I'll get my messages- an hour or more later, and all at once. I know Verizon's service is better than this- I rarely had even a minor complaint with any of my previous phones.

"We dare you to touch one...." is their ad copy for this thing. I truly wish I hadn't!

But I guess if this is my worst problem, I'm doing OK....

1. I have a Samsung Blackjack I. I have no major issue with it.
I like the keyboard for texting.

2. I'd be OK with the Dare....
if it weren't for this intermittent work stoppage.... Others have complained that the touch screen is sluggish, but I don't find that to be true.

3. I think its pretty universal that LG phones are horseshit.
I have one now and it sucks. I've had it replaced 3 times for the exact same fucking problem and I still have that same problem. Hell, I tried to replace it today and they would only give me the same one. I cannot get rid of this piece of crap. And of course Verizon has it so you can only replace a phone every two years. Fuck them up the ass, seriously. :argh:

4. I had the LG Chocolate before the Dare....
and never had a problem with it. The battery life sucked, but otherwise it was pretty reliable.

Oh, but to go back to my trusty Motorola Star-Tac!!!!!

5. I had a Motorola that was a great phone.
Then it crapped out on me and I've never had a good one since. I'm planning on switching over to iPhone.
