At&t, once again, has created a model specifically (GT950) to remove that feature. So if you want data, you're going to have to pay. Thanks AT&T. <br /> <br />Pros: Extremely beautiful screen, Flo TV works extremely well if you have decent reception, Good video performance (if you format the file correctly, multiple homescreens for different tasks. Built in FM transmitter. <br /> <br />Cons: Again no wifi, Screen is on the small side for an all touch phone (3 inches), If you've never used a virtual keyboard try in store first. <br /> <br />Besides the beautiful screen, there's really nothing to seperate this from any other feature phone on At&t's lineup. Overall the phone is solid, but doesn't really do anything spectacular. Rating: 3 / 5 First things first. The first LG Arena KM900 had Wifi.

Pros: Extremely gorgeous screen, Flo TV works extremely well if you have decent reception, Excellent video performance (if you format the file correctly, manifold homescreens for different tasks. Built in FM transmitter.

Cons: Again no wifi, Screen is on the small side for an all touch phone (3 inches), If you’ve never used a virtual keyboard try in store first.

Besides the gorgeous screen, there’s really nothing to seperate this from any other feature phone on At&t’s team. Overall the phone is solid, but doesn’t really do anything spectacular.

One of the features as mentioned above was disabled .. sorta disappointing as wifi tends to be faster than 3G but in fact isn't too shabby on this particular phone. The touch screen is responsive and the camera is crisp, clear and easy to use. Once you understand the features for the camera, (which also does video) is actually a pretty helpful little tool. The lack of a second source browser such as IE or Opera Mini really does set me back a bit... not something that can't be remedied and I'm sure with a little nudging AT&T may include that in a future firmware update. Some of the features are on a monthly fee such as AT&T GPS and there mobile TV service but at least its availble if your so inclined. I however feel like it should be included. Ringtones, pictures, and contacts are all easily downloaded and installed. Almost everything on the phone is customizable which I appreciate. All in all its a nice (yet restrictive) alternative to something like the iPhone and myTouch because of its many apps, customizations, sleek design, and able touch screen.
