I just purchased my LG Banter two months ago and so far so good.  It has a qwerty keyboard which is nice because the keys are just like a keyboard for a computer.  Now I don't have to push a button multiple times to hit a letter.  I think that's why I never texted before.  The phone has so muh capability that I wish I could afford the additional fees to use them. I explored the applications for email, web browsing, game downsloads and GPS.  That's only the tip of the iceberg as there is so much more that I just don't have time for with 5 kids. I've been through numerous phones throughout...
