yes, this is the one that flips both ways.  Does anyone have trouble with this phone.  When i flip it too fast the screen doesn't reset and i get the normal screen (when its flipped regular) when its sideways.  anyone else have this problem. shits gay i paid alot of money for this.

I love mine. As a side note, if you manage to break the screen, Verizon will replace the phone for only 50 bucks. I landed on mine skiing and just trashed the screen, Verizon was really cool about it though.

Verizon does that with every phone as long as you have insurance. But in my case after breaking my phone 3 times 50 bucks adds up.

i thought the small buttons would suck, but after like a few text messages you get used to it. it kinda sucks for the dialing, but i rarely call anyone out of my contacts so....yea....

That's the thing though, I don't have insurance. I was talking to the lady at the Verizon store about it and she said they only do it for the screens. i.e. break anything else and you're fucked.

Oh, I did'nt know that. I would deffintly recommend insurance though, it's only 5 bucks a month and if your pretty reckless with your phone it pays off.

Oh word man, I need to get that insurance.

And if it screws up like that picture, all you have to do is close it and re-open it.

more technology in phones = more ways they can break. That is why i get the simplest phones possible
