A couple weeks ago I had posted how I had purchased a 770 and a Samsung Blade and it worked.

Well, I ended up returning it all because it didn't work well enough.

I was pairing the 770 to a Samsung A900 via Bluetooth and I signed up for Sprint's EVDO service. At first, it seemed to work OK browsing around town, but once I began putting it to work at work, it failed the test.

The primary problem was the EVDO connection would disconnect after a couple minutes of no activity. Make a long story short, Sprint EVDO Support said the system was designed to do that to preserve battery life. BS. I'll manage my battery, Thank You.

I don't expect always-on, but I should be able to compose a short email and send without having to go through a reconnect.

A secondary problem was the 770 would lock up if I pushed it. Not enough memory. That may have been fixable but with the unacceptable net connect, I didn't bother.

Bummer. One of these days I'm going have mid-band web access with at least 800 wide in my pocket.
