    i would just like to ask if this phone comes with a "answering machine" -like feature like the D820 has. I get to record my personal greeting, and everytime there is an unattended call, it automatically turns this feature on and I get to hear whoever it is who left me a message on my inbox.

                  I have only had this phone a day and already I love it. I found it very easy to adapt to it having had flip phones as my last two phones and the touchscreen isn't a problem for me now. It has Goggle Maps which is ecellent if you need to find somewhere and as far as I'm aware it is free. I am really happy with this phone and have no regrets in getting it.
