when the phone comes out, there will be useful discussion concerning its operation, etc., just like the 6035 discussion. but 7135 post-release discussion will be intermingled with the pre-release hype, speculation and lusting that has been going on since june (which is deemed useless the instant the phone comes out, other than from an historic point of view for anyone needing to see the agony of anticipation).

so i propose archiving the entire 7135 pre-release discussion, allowing it to be viewable and searchable, just not postable (if that's a word ). then a new post-release 7135 discussion can begin.
