Nexus One..I'm at my wit's end.

So I was a former iPhone user. Loved the phone. I decided that I wanted to try something else, so I picked up the Nexus One back in June. Got it for my ATT service so I wouldn't have to switch service providers.

These last 7 months have been a love/hate relationship. People tell me that I have a bum phone. I've attempted to contact HTC regarding help about it, but their only source of contact is by phone. No email. Really? That's dumb. I don't have alot of time for phone calls during the day, but I may have to make the time soon.

Over the summer, on vacation, I couldn't upload pictures to Facebook or send pics via email or text after I left my home calling area. I'm on a nationwide plan. Even if I did have 3G service. Whatever.

This morning I got two separate messages pop up that just pissed me right off. One, low memory message. I know the phone only has 512mb onboard, so I moved many of my apps over to the 4gb sd card. Maybe that one was my bad.

However, I got a text message shortly after, and rather than que it until memory was cleared, it just flat rejected the message. Really? Why? I'm sorry, but I refuse to accept this sort of behavior from a damn $600 phone.

I was annoyed enough over the summer to get rid of it, but I decided to give it time. I've given it time, and while I love the OS, I am very aggravated at this phone.

It loses the *mapping* on the screen and buttons from time to time, and I have to put the screen to sleep and wake it back up in order for everything to work right.

The little things are about to wear me out. It has Froyo on it, has been rooted, has Cyanogen 6.0 on it.

I may very well be putting this thing on eBay soon. Maybe I just don't have the patience for the whole *Android* thing and it's quirks. Say what you want about Apple, but the iPhone just worked, and worked well.
