Samsung A897 Mythic - user opinions and reviews

I've played with the Mythic for several hours on two different occasions at two different AT&T stores. The first time I was totally unfamiliar with the Samsung Touchwiz interface and I found myself lost at times. After reading the user manual I went for a 2nd spin. I liked the interface after learning how to use it. Call quality is good. Call waiting is easy to use and the 3-way/join feature is a neat option. Messaging is easy although I think the real keyboard on the Samsung Impression is easier for text input than the virtual keyboard, at least as a first time user of both the Mythic and the Impression. The screen resolution and size is very good. The camera is adequate with it's auto focus and flash, but still not a replacement for a real camera. I struggled with the web browser on both Mythic phones. I got frustrated with the factory browser and installed Opera Mini, and found it much better than the AT&T tweaked Opera browser preinstalled on the phone. On numerous accounts the phone seemed to lag or totally lock up and quit taking input to the browsers. At times it even displayed an error that forced me to shut down the browser. All said and done, I love the features of the Mythic but the jury is still out on using it for web browsing. I'm chomping at the bit for a "REAL" full blown review from GSMArena to see if they too find browser and lag issues or if it was just my inexperience with the interface that caused the problems I had.
