I have been here for awhile and have heard a lot of complaints. I do like this phone a lot. There is one thing i do not like about it though and have not seen anyone complain about. When you type a text in landscape and then have to flip it to read the text or wait for a text back is annoying as HELL!!!!! Yeah i know i can change the keyboard but i would much rather have it work fully in landscape. Am i the only one Huh?Huh?

I think this qualifies as a vent.... not general discussion.

Yes, that would be more of a piss off than anything to me.  I never realized that it was such a task to rotate the phone to type...Is that not one of the things that attracted people?  Landscape QWERTY keypad???

Oh well...

I also find it annoying. It's not  a major problem, but it should be changed. Why not give us the option of a QWERTY keyboard in landscape and portrait mode. In portrait mode, the keyboard is in alphabetical order which is utterly useless!! They should change this with an update. It's one of those little things that would make using the phone so much better.

The thing that bothers me about this is how random it is.  Sometimes the keyboard comes up in landscape, sometimes the other way.  Sometimes it has this collection of buttons, sometimes it has that collection of buttons.  It's totally freaking random and that's what bugs me.

okay heres a lil fix. when u finish texting try the down arrow to preview all the text. if you have the s30. but if you have the m800 try touching your text and scrolling down to reveil the text before it.
ps. i'm wrighting this from my s30,opera mini 5. lol
