  Summary: This would be a decent voice "dumb" phone except that AT&T and LG have loaded it FULL of junkware that CANNOT be deleted. Ignore what you might see on the AT&T web site - NOT ONE of the numerous idiot apps has a "Delete" option. This phone is designed to trick you into using data. Here are the apps that I cannot delete:
  - Star Tweets
  - Wikimobile
  - snap
  - UNO
  - Pac-Man Champion
  - My-Cast Weather
  - Bejeweled
  - Maps
  - City ID
  - Browser
  - YPmobile
  - Mobile Web
  - AppCenter
  - AT&T Navigator
  - AT&T FamilyMap
  - Social Net
  - AT&T Radio
  But wait - it gets worse !! My speed dial menu is ALREADY POPULATED with the following AT&T numbers that always appear at the top of the list and CANNOT BE DELETED OR MOVED TO THE BOTTOM OF THE LIST:
  - AT&T Check Bill Balance
  - AT&T Customer Care
  - AT&T Directory Assistance
  - AT&T Pay My Bill
  - AT&T View Data Usage
  - AT&T View My Minutes
  - AT&T VoiceDial
  Because these seven appear at the top of the list, the speed dials for my family members DO NOT APPEAR ON THE SCREEN unless I scroll down. THERE IS NO WAY TO CHANGE THIS.
  I have now spoken with AT&T four times about this. AT&T has finally admitted that NONE OF THESE CAN BE DELETED OR MOVED.
  So - it's your call.
