If you added a second line you were eligible to get one of the better
phones at good discount, didn't they tell you about the add a sub program ?
did you do this at a store or on the phone ?

I used a 3588i for several months. The reception (receiving signal)
was outstanding. The transmission, on the other hand, wasn't as good.
Many times people I'm talking to say I'm breaking up, and I can hear
them clear as a bell.

>The 3588i isn't a really good phone,
My son's girlfreind has one and has had absolutly no problems of any kind with
it. It works well and gets reception almost a s good as my Samsung SCH-8500
(which all CDMA phones should be judged by). As a teen ager hers has been
dropped and mishandled a lot. I have used it and sound quaity is great and
volume level in the ear peice is as good or better than the 3595 that I also
have. I have to turn both of these phones down most of the time.
So get it, I don't think the the OP will be disappointed.

Good RF performance, decent earpiece, good mic, good keypad, fidgety
directional control/softkey layout. Overall, good phone.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this handset cripped with the
Sprint firmware, and otherwise browser equipped and 3G capable?
