 Not as advertised August 14, 2007

I got this phone yesterday because of the seamless integration of email with text messaging so that you don't have to pay data charges to get and send email. Every press release I saw claimed this phone integrates with AOL, Yahoo, and Gmail - AOL and Yahoo yes, Gmail no. In fact, I found out today from a TMobile dealer that it is a "known issue" that the Blast does not work with Gmail, Earthlink, or SBCGlobal email at the current time. This is a big problem for me, and they're not sure if/when it will be resolved.
The second problem is that no one who works for TMobile seems to understand that this phone can get and send email WITHOUT subscribing to TMobile Web. That's the whole point of the phone, but none of them will believe me. However, it does work, so don't listen to them and sign up for the web service if you don't want it!
Other than that...I do love the phone. It looks great, sounds great, and works great for most things. But I did get it for the perk of easy, cheap email and it seems like I might not get that.
 Lots of background static noise August 12, 2007

I purchased the samsung blast phone the second day it came out and the first thing I noticed when I called someone is a lot of background static noise. The noise was constant and unpleasant. I exchanged the phone a day later for another one and the same problem existed. I am not sure if this is a product defect or what but I wanted to throw my two cents in on my experience with this phone. I hope everyone else has better luck with this phone. I am probably going to go with the blackberry pearl. cheers!
I just found out that the static noise is only when the speaker volume is above level 4.
