Lets start off by saying I love this phone and I just rooted it. I'm glad all the bloat ware is off this phone, but why in the world did Samsung leave off a led indixatior seriously? It's a 600 phone? Ugh who's with me on this one?

I too thought I'd miss it until I didn't have it. It's really not a hassle to turn on your display occasionally if you feel you missed the audible or vibrating notification. I now run BLN Control because my kernel supports it. I feel the constant light of the soft keys is better than the intermittent LED flash. One quick glance and you know if there's a message versus waiting for a little blink every few seconds.
Besides, it gives me an excuse to look at this oh so gorgeous screen.
That's been covered multiple times on here already...
You get used to not having it there. If you really want an indicator, flash a ROM/kernal that supports backlight notifications, which use the softkey backlights to alert you for messages/emails/missed calls
I use BLN, I appreciate having it because there are times when it's impossible for me to hear the phone.
Bigger question for me is why the hell did they put the charging port on the TOP of the phone?
That's easy: Put it on the bottom (imho the smartest place since I sometimes talk while plugged) and you look like you copied the iPhone, so no-go. Put it on the left side or the right side, and the right-handers or left-handers (respectively) will be up in arms that you made a wrong-handed phone. So, what side is left? That's right, the top, where it will piss off everyone equally.
