New phone, new problems

Well, after two years, and some-odd months after my family’s contract extension, I’ve finally upgraded to a new phone, the Samsung Gravity T(ouch). I will write a review of it once I get a better handle on it, but it DOES seem to be a very nice, easy to use phone. My only complaint so far is the inability to select which applications that can be used as widgets in the “TouchWiz” interface, and it’s IM client. Every samsung phone I’ve owned did the same thing with IM…. It doesn’t support the “groups” on IM, and while this is fine for services like MSN, where it just gets all your contacts, AIM, which is the client I use the most to talk to my girlfriend, only gets the contacts in the “mobile” group, none of the others. It also lacks the ability to change the font size, and in landscape mode, that means I’m reading ridiculously large text that will use two lines and fill up the screen.. I’d like to say it’s better in portrait, but it’s still pretty bad… I guess I’ll live. :p

I’ll be writing a review in the next few days.
