 Miss my Flip
I was in a bad accident a few months ago, and after 6 weeks in ICU I was sent to step down and my sister had a surprise for me, a brand new 9300 curve. I was grateful to her as this was an expensive purchase and I needed a new phone as my old 8220 was totally destroyed.
I've been home several months now and decided to go out into the garage to put away some of my tools that were in my truck at the time of my accident. While out there I came across my 8220, and it was a mess, totally broken in two, and scratched completely through the plastic, (it was found far down the road with a bunch of broken glass) I thought I would try to disassemble it, and if the Main Board, and Upper screen were still intact I would take an old 8220 that I paid $20 for parts and see if I could make a whole phone of it. Long story short, I have reassembled it and it works perfectly.
The last twist to this strange story is my old flip was just like many of the 8220s in that it had lost all blue tooth function a year prior to this happening and after I put it back together with a pile of junk parts the blue tooth is now working perfectly.
I miss my old phone, and especially my sure type keyboard, and I think after I order a new spare battery, and OEM leather case (as they were totally destroyed too) I might just switch back to my old pearl flip.
