att fuze? honestly it's a big upgrade from my tilt.. go play with it you might like it, only thing you gotta do is flash it to a custom rom once you get to take full feature of the phone. main issue with it right now are battery and the gps. i don't mind the battery length since i charge my phone every night. but there's some minor issue with android as well.. like every other phone.

know what since you're already a tmob customer i don't see why they won't give you unlock code, then you can just swap to att after. if they won't sell it to you w/o contract best buy has'em http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....=1218004381289. duno if you can walk out with it w/o activating it but i know with every other phone you can cept iphone -_-.

I have never waited more than 2 business days to get a code for unlocked from t-mobile, just FYI...
just an experience of some people on the forum. just gonna depend on who you get.. just keep calling til they give you code to unlock.
