    Thanks for the data point. I may have been in a week signal area. Most of the time, I have no problem over BT.

    Thread Anyone else experience cooldown mode on 3G?

    For the second time now, while talking on the phone and connected to BT wireless in my car, my S2 3G has automatically gone into cooldown mode after getting noticeably warmer on my wrist. Just wondering if anyone else has observed this?

    Post Diztronic TPU Case Review

    I have the Kawasaki version of a dremel tool. It comes with drill bits and I used the 1/8" bit. You have to take your time and line it up. It will end up very close to the headphone jack hole. I got it pretty darn close to lining up with the mic (good enough for me). I probably could have...

    Wow, you are right. Didn't even know it was there. I guess it must be for noise reduction or something. Anywho, decided to use my dremel on low speed and make my own hole. Thanks for pointing this out.

    Post The one and only "Got NoDo??" thread....

    I've been wondering that myself lately. It's not the same as when I joined in 2007. It's definitely not to whine and complain about things I have no control over... which is what WP7 forums seem to spend most of their time doing.
