My only problem is that the VisorPhone doesn't have anything similar to Nokia's Profiles and Caller Groups.
Yep; it seems particularly daft building a GSM module that's only single band these days, severely limiting its usefulness.
A dual 1900/900 model would have been useful, or better still a tri-band. I'm particularly surprised at the restriction to a single band, since it's made in partnership with a European company. One dual or tri-band model could be sold everywhere, instead of having different inventory for US and rest of the world.
With regard to caller groups, yep, they're invaluable. I have a 'private' profile that my Nokia 8210 is set to overnight which will only make a noise for calls from family and close friends.
There are a few irritations in the Nokia firmware, but not many these days - certainly compared to the downright hostility of some other brands.
