The only reason I bought this phone is because it allows me to take text notes. I don't listen to music, take pictures, or anything else. All I am looking for is a phone that works as a phone and allows me to take text notes.

Any tips on how to deal with the things I don't like, or does anyone know of another non-PDA phone that will take text notes. I like to comfortably fit the phone in my pocket, and anything with a QWERTY key board is too big for that.

Thanks.

Ok to answer your 1st question go to Settings-General-Security-Automatic key lock. That will lock your phone when you are done with a call. I had the same prob when I first got mine but then figured out auto key lock now it works great. The sped dial you will have to deal with it, I hate it a well but I manage. I don't even slide my phone open any more to make calls, just text. Oh and don't listen to ButtMunch the W580i is a great phone once you get used to it.
