Thank goodness for FCC filings — at least for those of us who have gadget OCD. If you’re as excited as me about the E7 and willing to give up the 12MP camera plus the radio transmitter. You might want to download the 26-page E7 user manual.

Flashlight

To switch the flashlight on or off, slide and hold the lock switch for two seconds.

The flashlight can only be used when you are in the home screen. You can switch the flashlight on also when you are in the home screen and the keys and screen or the device is locked.

I know its simple, but the little things make me happy. Once I read that the ‘torch’ or ‘flashlight’ feature is actually activated by the hardware slide lock button, it sealed the deal for me. The E7 is definitely my next phone!
