Here is my story

[Dave Blake]

I'm in Vermont today through Friday working.... fun! Not really!

So a couple of weeks ago I bought a used BB Torch to play with. Then last week my wife broke, no smashed to smithereens her L800. I set her up with my extra device a Atrix 2 she lasted 4 days then told me I'm done with this phone get me a Windows Phone. Here is where it gets interesting. My son who bought his own GS III has been eying my Torch. He asked if he could try it out. He then decided he wanted the Atrix 2 and the Torch so I traded him the Torch and Atrix 2 for the GS III. I then bought a L900 off Craig's list for $200. I am keeping the L900 and my wife got My Titan II. In the end I now have a L900 and GS III to play with. Its a Win, Win, Win.....

Thats my story I just wanted the share

Good stuff. I have a GS3, but on Sprint. I may want one on AT&T so I can experience the 4G LTE speeds.

An L900 for $200!!!!!!!!!!! Geez.

It's an Android phone. My emails don't get marked read I have too turn off the number key after I hit the @ sign when entering an email. I had tho tell it to download emails after 5 pm and on weekends. You know the things that WP just does. It's a nice device though. I needed one that's a Windows phone. The real win here is the L900. Its black not a scratch on it and it came with a black case and charger no box though.

I am interested to see if the Ativ is basically a GS3 running WP. I don't like touchwhiz, but other than that the S3 is pretty nice.

What about Twiz do you not like? I don't really notice it until I try and save a contact.

I don't care for the looks of it and when I played with the GS3 in the Verizon store it seemed more sluggish navigating through the home screens than my Rezound. If I had a Galaxy for any length of time I would probably get used to it, but the first impression makes me think it's sluggish. The phone isn't sluggish opening and switching apps, in that regard it's very fast, just when moving through the home screens.
