Travel Alert: Clear Security ceases operation {Gadling}
Jun 23rd 2009 1:56AM I just used the Clear Lane in Atlanta GA on Saturday morning, 6/20/2009. I used Clear as much as I could and it did work to get me through the long lanes. I travel every week of the year all over North America. I'm a Platinum flyer for Delta/NWA. Sad to see it go.
Now what happens to my unused portion of my yearly subscription that I paid for already? Do I get a refund for the unused portion?

Engadget Mobile relaunch giveaways - T-Mobile Wing {Engadget Mobile}
Aug 16th 2008 4:06PM I have had this phone now for over a year and all I can say is "IT SUCKS". I have been a T-Mobile customer for over 5 years and I'm one of their platinum customers due to my account being large and longstanding.
Its a SLOW running version of Windows Mobile v6. The screen response to touch commands is very slow. It takes seconds for it to respond. I have done complete reboots to factory software to see if it was any added software from me causing this, but was not the case. It just has a slow running CPU. I have friends with the same Windows Mobile v6 OS on other model cell phones that run much faster.
The back of the phone has a sliding plastic case that does not stay clicked in. And I have not yet been able to locate a replacement part from T-Mobile on this back plastic case. I have gone into their stores and called them.
The phone always wants to slide out its keyboard slightly if you hold it too tight.
It constantly dials the last phone call that you completed since the Green call button presses down easily in the belt pouch. You always have to put the phone in Lock Mode to stop these accidental button presses. It also Hangs Up on calls since its so easy to press the Red hangup button. The hang ups happens more often when its in the belt pouch when using a bluetooth headset. You constantly have to put the phone in Lock Mode to avoid this issue which is a pain doing so.
All in all, this cell phone just sucks. I can't wait to get a new one that is better at running Windows Mobile v6 (Non exist from T-Mobile). So I'm just waiting for my contract to expire so I can move over to a provider with FAST Internet connectivity and a faster cell phone OS. I'm looking at the iPhone 3G as the next one.
