fingerprint reader on the back can browse selection bar with the same hands pointing finger. if you wanna lock the phone with that you have to setup a simple pincode too. wifi strong, lacks of good UI. feels solid in general. slider does not answer calls but ends it(?). use with 2gb toshiba miniSD card. camera not that good but if you rely on phone for your next gallery then even toshiba cant help you .)

    I have it. it's a quite awesome little toy for that price. if you install the starttoolkit freeware it feels like a little simcard-free wifi vista device.. lots of freeware out there.. if you have a toshiba laptop like me .. thats the 'phone' for you.. didnt mind for gps since the price diffrence with gps enabled phones allows you to afford an extra gps device and have a nice evening out.

      I have it. The finger print is useful in case you lose the phone and noone wont be able to access it. Also stops from random ppl accessing it. Quite usefull.
      The phone works on any GSM network. So, will work in US/Canada

                              I don't have toshiba G500, but as for locking the keypad, try holding the red button (for hanging up calls), that might be it.

                              And for the underline, while writing the message, press and hold the # key. That should bring up all the special symbols (like slash, dot, semicolon etc), so you should be able to choose the underline.

                                      Bluetooth is 2.0v with (A2dP).. 1.2 for miniusb. Looks good, great phone toshiba came out, like there laptops[Got 2 of toshiba dual core n finger print reader] Yes fingerprint reader is very useful. Incase of private things on your phone, you could lock. [The reader is on back of phone when u slide it out] Also if u get the phone stolen no one can get into it unless they know how relfash the firmware. [Most thieves don't know how to do that ] All in All Better than Iphone and Cheaper. [ F700 is also better iphone] Iphone = Brand
