Verizon Fails Again

Here's a bad review of the chocolate phone from Verizon. While pretty, it turns out the buttons don't work and are layed out badly, no speakerphone, crippled bluetooth, no mac support, etc. In short, "the Chocolate is a usability disaster". David Pogue summed it up: "Whenever I review a product this badly designed, I just stare at the ceiling and try to imagine how it could possibly have gotten out the door."

I echo the sentiments of some of the commenters. I just want a phone that works and integrated with my computer's address book. I'd do that with a wire, but bluetooth was made for this and is already on the phone.
