Yeah.. i found it out today because T-Mo 2 Go blocks all shortkey phone #s for some bizarre reason.

I clicked on this thread to update that. Weird that it worked when I first got the phone but when my phone # was re-assigned from my old phone to my new one, it stopped working. Thought it may be related but it doesn't seem likely.

Thanks for trying, nonetheless.

if it mean anything, www.synfonic.com is the same thing, but their replies are SO slow...
