Anyone have one of these? Thinking of getting one, wondering about how good it actually is - pros/cons etc if anyone can be bothered to name a few!

I've had one for a couple of weeks and find it's fine.

I haven't owned a full-keyboard phone before so I can't offer comparisons on that point, but I'm finding it usable enough. Otherwise:


good screen
good battery life
average camera
good range of software supplied
wireless connection not brilliant (sometimes struggles to pick up my home hub in the house)
good phone reception
no tracker ball like a Blackberry so browsing web pages is a bit fiddly
clear speaker, albeit maybe a bit metallic-sounding


The last thing might be down to one of the things I like most about the phone. It has an all-metal casing which gives it a reassuringly solid feel, and it looks good too.

As I said, previous to this I just had standard phones. This was the supplied phone with a special deal I got from my new network, so I was happy to take it.
