I was able to get in touch with someone in
Sprint PR and they sent me out the new Samsung Instinct to review. I
started using it yesterday and have been learning the ins and outs of it
over the past day. A few quick points that I have noticed so far is
that the battery seems to be on par with other devices out there. I
just replaced the charged battery with the 2nd one that came with it.
Not too bad in my book.

However, I do have a concern about the RF of the device. As you can see
in the photo, the service level on the phone is much poorer than my
Novatel Wireless Merlin S720 wireless card for Sprint service. This
isn’t just happening in my current location, but in many areas I have
traveled to in the past day. Anyone else experience this behavior?

I have another 3 days to use it before it has to go back, so I’ll try to
do what I can while I have it. Look for more as I go.
