I like my mobile phone, but there are two small problems with it. One 
problem is that even though it's a flip phone, each time you open it you 
get a random menu item. The other problem is that it's a tad slow. Like, 
when you ask it to open an SMS message, it takes a second or so to open. 
And when you close it, it takes a second or so to display the message 
list again.

That being the case, deleting messages takes *forever*. Fortunately, 
unlike other phones I've seen which can't handle storing more than about 
12 messages, this one can handle hundreds. Unfortunately, deleting them 
is excruciatingly slow. Select the message, press options, delete 
delete, confirm that you want to do this, wait 1 second for it to 
delete, wait 1 second for the message list to come back up, repeat.

So today I just told it to delete *everything*.



...it took about 20 minutes to do that! o_O It seems to take 
approximately 1 second to delete 1 message, so with ~500 sent and ~700 
received messages, it took a heck of a long time.
