I have to say that if it had eaten all my contacts I'd be very fed up with it too. So far it's not done anything like that to me (and, indeed, the way I got my contacts _on_ to it was via syncing it with Google Contacts).
Works for me just fine for SMS though - I'm curious what problem you/she had?
Specific, yesterday she tried to use it for the last time to text all her contacts with her new number (might as well use up the free texts).
One of the numbers was wrong. It kept retrying to send, was unable to send, and then reattempted it. We couldn't find the outbox, couldn't tell it to stop sending, and eventually just turned it off then put it on silent.
Nokia and Sony phones I've had always ask to retry if there's a problem number. Whether it was a one off or similar, it was still daft. And sure, finding the outbox is something you know how to do or not, but Nokia's have a logo shortcut whent here's something in there in the status area.
How odd. I don't get failed texts often, but when I do they pop up in the notification bar to tell me they've failed, and then I can choose to resend them or not. Having said that, that's through a different SMS program, and I can't remember what the original is like. In any case, that must have been horribly frustrating.
