ETEN Glofish M700 Sliding Keyboard Pocket PC Phone ( Unlocked ) Review

ETEN Glofish M700 Sliding Keyboard Pocket PC Phone ( Unlocked )
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
What looks good on paper is horrible in use. I would not recommend this phone to anyone, and I will NEVER buy another ETEN product. I posted my first review on a different Amazon listing for this same phone and that listing has been de-activated and this new listing has appeared, so I'm reposting my review in the hopes that it will save someone the headache that I went through with the phone and the company.
I bought this phone about just after it came out, in late January 2007. I was so excited to get it. On paper, the phone looked like the real deal, with everything, GPS, EDGE, Wi-Fi, slider keyboard, touch screen...the works. 3G wasn't such a big deal when the m700 came out, so I could live with EDGE/GPRS. I got the phone, and for the first two weeks I thought it was the greatest thing ever featurewise. Construction-wise, it had a lot to be desired. The slider keyboard is cheap. Compared to other slider phones, ATT Tilt, TMobile Wing, HTC Touch Dual, the sliding mechanism is rough. Those other phones have lightly spring-loaded rollers that make the sliding mechanism very smooth and pleasant. The m700 is just bare plastic on plastic, almost gritty, and difficult to open. The phone is also bulky. If it's in your pocket, forget about trying to fish it out if you're driving, or sitting down.
Everyone else who called me hated my new phone. All inbound callers to this phone were greeted by an ear-splitting screech that lasted for about 2 tenths of a second - just long enough to say OW! and short enough to think it was a fluke, except that it happened every time. To test it, I switched over to my old Motorola v600, and my callers stopped getting the ear-popping screech. When I switched back to my m700, the screech came back.
After 4 months (the end of May), my phone broke. I was on a road trip, using the m700 as an mp3 player (the line out volume was very low) and as my GPS navigation at the same time, when the phone screen went black and a DOS looking boot screen showed up. Then it rebooted again, and again, and again until it finally shut itself off, never to turn on again.
That's when I found out about ETEN's non-existent support. Check ETEN's website and you'll find that there are no US contact numbers for the company. After a fair amount of research and repeatedly pestering the retailer I bought the phone from ([...] - don't buy from them either!), they finally tell me there is only a single (yes only one!) importer for ETEN phones in the US. I don't know this for sure, but I had emailed every contact email on ETEN's website and did not receive a single response. The retailer tells me that ETEN does NOT deal directly with customers and that they won't respond if I contact them directly. Funny, because when I first contacted Samstores about my broken phone, they told me to contact ETEN. I had to hassle with Samstores for almost 2 weeks before they finally gave me an RMA number for the supposed 1 year USA warranty on the phone.
I paid to ship my phone back. After 3 weeks, no response. I called the retailer and left messages - no response. Whenever I spoke with someone who said their "guy" would call me back tomorrow - never called me back. I had to keep calling until someone answered. Finally I got a hold of someone who told me they contacted ETEN. They tell me, "2 more weeks!" I wait and wait. 2 weeks goes by, still no phone. I call the retailer AGAIN and they contact ETEN who tells them it's almost ready. Another week goes by, I finally get the phone back. ZERO work has been done on the phone. It is in the exact same condition as when I shipped it back. I contact the retailer again and ask for a refund or even an exchange for a new phone. They tell me OK, send the phone back and they'll refund my money. It's early August now. I send the phone back with delivery confirmation, pay for shipping again, and wait. I see through online tracking that the phone has been delivered so I call the retailer. Now they tell me, they're not going to issue a refund, that they're shipping the phone back to ETEN again! I'm livid. I pester them every day until they give me the number for their contact at ETEN.
I call him immediately. BEWARE! ETEN's policy is REPAIR ONLY. They will not exchange phone or issue a refund. He tells me they're using a different place now to do the repairs, someplace more "reputable" in California. I wait three weeks, still no phone. I call again, only to discover, for some crazy reason my phone has been shipped back to the UK! After many more phone calls and ANOTHER 3 weeks, I get my phone back. I don't even want the phone anymore, but I'm hoping everything is fixed so I can at least salvage it on eBay. I open the box and plug the phone in. To my utter shock, the phone is STILL BROKEN!!! It is, once again, in the exact same condition in which I shipped it to them - broken. So out of the 1 year "warranty" and the 4 months I used the phone, it was being "repaired" for almost 5 months. In the meantime I bought a different phone - the TMobile Dash (HTC Excalibur) - a fantastic phone, in place of the ETEN phone. No GPS but much smaller, lighter and with an external keyboard that works well for one-handed use, and all the symbols on the keys light up. On the ETEN m700, only the letters would be backlit, so if you were trying to type in the dark, none of the symbols or numbers were visible.
Samstores finally offered me a refund after I contacted them about the second non-repair and threatened to take them to small claims court, just send the phone back and they'll issue a credit to my credit card, they say. I ship the phone back again, paying for shipping again, and call them when I see the delivery confirmation. I don't see the credit on my card statement after a week, so I call them again, and they give me the runaround AGAIN! After two weeks, they blame the distributor. I call the distributor and leave a message about the phone. He calls me back the next day and says he has issued the refund. I call Samstores after this and they say, "We have good news for you...your refund has been issued!" It is now mid-October. Almost 6 months of nothing and I finally get the refund I had asked for in the first place.
So, for those of you considering this phone, it's a fun gadget. Beware if it breaks because you could be in for a long, drawn-out headache. At any rate, they'll quote you 6 weeks for the repair which means you'll have no phone in the meantime, and who knows when you'll get it back, and if it will even work when you get it. Personally, I will NEVER buy another ETEN product, and I would tell anyone who is considering buying an ETEN phone not to buy anything from that company.

AT&T Tilt Phone, Silver (AT&T) Review

ATandT Tilt Phone, Silver (ATandT)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I was lucky enough to hear that this phone had been released just days after I had bought the 8525 to replace a previous broken phone. There seemed to be some confusion with the AT&T sales people, since currently with rebates it sells for less than the 8525 and some internal memo seems to have them telling customers that a different update to the 8525 is still coming. Make no mistake, this is the upgrade for the 8525 and it's a beauty! Since there's pretty good specs and basic data on what the phone includes on the Amazon product page, I'll just run down some improvements over the 8525:
1. New sleek black casing. It's not as slippery so less likely to be dropped!
2. When keyboard is out, you can tilt the screen up. This makes it particularly nice for watching videos on a plane or using as an alarm clock, etc.
3. GPS built in. You can pay for the AT&T Telenav...or just load on your own navigation software like TomTom. More on this later...
4. Double the memory! One of my biggest issues with windows mobile phones was they had so much less usable memory on the device. I do tend to load a lot of applications and many I really prefer to run on the device, not on an external card. So yeah for this!
5. 3 MP camera (up from 2) with autofocus. No light to use as a flash though (not that it was all that great anyway!)
6. Dual processor and graphics accelerator for improved performance
7. Windows Mobile 6
Okay, so those are the improvements in a nutshell. Lets look at this sucker in more detail.
First, the package from AT&T is pretty bare bones. You get the phone, an extra stylus, screen protector, AC charger, USB sync cable, and the usual software CD with ActiveSync and user's manual. That's basically it! There's no case, no headphones, not even a headphone adapter. This device does support stereo bluetooth headphones, so a lot of people will probably get those instead, but to not even include a basic slip case? Pretty cheap for a device in this price range.
The device itself is really pleasing to look at. The front is actually considerably darker to the eye than the photos on this page, more like a dark grey than silver, which I think is quite nice looking (see the photo I uploaded). The back does show fingerprints a bit, but it has a nice feel to it and is easy to gripe. The back however is rather challenging to get off. There's no release as on the previous model, you just have to use brute force. The speaker is on the back and can give pretty decent volume. Also on the back is the connector for an external GPS antennae (generally not needed unless you are in something like an RV).
The keyboard is a full QWERTY keyboard, and fairly nice and tactile. Also has a nice light-up feature which can automatically detect light (or you can tweak to always activate). The number keys are colored grey which makes them easier to find and the blue switch key is completely blue rather than just having a blue dot. However, the keyboard slides out the opposite direction of the 8525 so if you used that phone, you may find yourself trying to slide this the wrong way all the time! This does also put the buttons and stylus to the left...not good for most of us that are right-handed. I also wish there was a way to lock caps and/or numbers on. You have to hold down their respective shift keys which really slows me down sometimes. Also, when fully tilted up, the soft keys at the top of the keyboard are very hard to press as they are somewhat under the screen.
Now on to the buttons. There don't seem to be as many buttons on this model and they aren't as easy to customize in general. You have a dedicated Push-to-Talk button that won't let you remap it, frustrating if you never use this service. There is no longer a Comm Manager button either, which I really liked, to pull up my setting for bluetooth, wifi, etc. and turn them on and off. The internet and email buttons are now down at the bottom with all the other buttons. I expect some people will like this, I personally liked them being separate as I now often have to look to make sure I'm pushing the right button. It's not the greatest layout if you like to play games on your device. I do love the real scroll wheel (not a jog dial). Once you have a device with just jog, you'll know how nice true scroll is! The power button is really flush with the device and unlikely you will accidentally turn the device on while in a pocket or purse. Unfortunately this does mean it is not exactly easy to find that power button when it's dark out! Luckily sliding out the keyboard will also turn it on. By default the sliding makes a little chiming sound, but you can turn that off.
Built-in GPS is pretty cool to have. It does take awhile to fix the satellites, there is a utility to help with that and others you can download for free. Once you have a signal, you can use it with TeleNav, something like TomTom or with various online free service like Microsoft Live or Google Maps. Lots of cool options to make use of this. However, if you want to use this to replace the navigation in your car, there's one big issue with this device, and that's the screen. It doesn't use a transreflective screen which makes it very difficult to see in bright light. This is generally not a huge problem for typical use, but if you want to use this in your car to do navigation, it may be too difficult to see from any distance if light is hitting it. You can turn up the brightness all the way but on a sunny day, you may still have problems. Make sure your navigation has spoken text directions or you may end up lost!
The new camera does have the neat autofocus which you can lock on your subject before shooting the photo. It's like most phone cameras in that it is rather slow and can't handle a moving subject. For relatively stationery ones, it's actually fairly decent. Won't beat your digicam, but it's usable in a pinch.
Now on to the operating system and software, this phone is using the new Windows Mobile 6. Not a huge different here from 5, biggest changes are in the messaging which handles Exchange servers a lot better, HTML emails, etc. Many people in the past used 3rd party products for email, WM6 actually does a pretty decent job with them now. It also has the new Windows Live service which lets you do instant messaging, maps, location searches, traffic, weather, news, etc. I've only just started playing with some of these features, but it looks really good. Just type in a location, search for something like a nearby restaurant and you can pull up not only the address and phone...but get directions and a map there as well! And yes, GPS is integrated. It's pretty cool. Other various MS functions like hotmail and IM are part of Windows Live as well. Pocket IE is still pretty crappy. I prefer Opera Mobile, but the free Opera Mini works pretty well for a lot of people as well.
Now for the big negative...AT&T bloatware. Apparently with all this free memory, they saw no reason to leave it for the user, instead filling it with all these extra paid-for AT&T services and horrible game demos (time out in something like 1 minute!) Luckily there are a couple ways around this. You can soft reset the device when it starts loading all these extra apps on and skip over it that way. Or if you are a really savvy techie type like me, you can flash the device with the original HTC ROM which is much nicer than the plain AT&T one. You do need to really spend some time learning how to do this and of course it invalidates the warranty. But you'll have a really slick device afterwards and a lot more free memory. It has a nice black theme that matches the color of the device and a really nice Today screen plugin. The dialer is much improved and easier to use as well. Google the xda-developers site for more info (again, not for the technically challenged!)
I'm the type of user that plays around with a new device for weeks trying to find just the right combinations of addon programs and utilities to get it working just the way I like it. I've found all kinds of neat programs such as one that lets you configure all the buttons (adding commands for things like double-press or long-press) and another that lets you create custom profiles like a regular cell phone, but controlling things like bluetooth/Wifi being on and changing volumes, etc. Set your profiles to switch at certain times of the day or for certain types of appointments, there's so much you can control if you want to. I was hoping with the faster processor it would load up my Today screen a bit faster with everything I have on there, but it still takes awhile on the first load to render everything. Be careful though as all software does not support WM6 yet. I found that clock/alarm programs in particular did not play well with it.
There's so much you can do with a Windows Mobile phone, I can't begin to list it all here. You can do streaming video (watch YouTube), use Skype or other VOIP services, even listen to your entire music collection from home using media sharing. Instant messaging, you can even use remote desktop! I even found a website that lets me stream my XM radio channels. Pretty amazing stuff.
You'll definitely want to drop by the xda-developers Kaiser forums (google it) and check out some of the applications available there. Top of the list is the Kaiser Tweak which you install and run in order to adjust a lot of the somewhat annoying default settings on the Tilt. Top of the list is the often-mentioned issue with the screen turning off during a call. Run this app and you will never have that problem again. Various performance-related tweaks are available as well.
Overall, this is a nice step up from the 8525 and with all the rebates currently available, a...Read more›

UTStarcom XV6800 - Smartphone - CDMA2000 1X - touch / slide-out keyboard - Windows Mobile - Verizon Review

UTStarcom XV6800 - Smartphone - CDMA2000 1X - touch / slide-out keyboard - Windows Mobile - Verizon
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
You can find a great phone or a great PDA, but combine them and even the best smartphone will fall short in some respect. Understanding which tradeoffs fit your profile is the key. You will appreciate the XV-6800 if you: 1.) Have ever been called a nerd; 2.) value an endlessly customizable productivity and entertainment gadget; and, 3.) can live with okay-not-great phone functionality. On the other hand, if you are a power phone user (and/or prefer a simple interface to one with exposed complexity), you may find a simpler cell phone a better choice.
A WORD ABOUT THICKNESS
There's a widely-accepted myth that phones with slide-out keyboards are thick because of, well, the keyboard. It's not true. Like cell phone screens, they're wafer-thin: It's the battery (typically located beneath the keys) that's to blame. Because consumers comparison shop for long talk/standby time and power-draining features (e.g., Wi-Fi, Bluetooth), hefty batteries are a necessary evil.
The XV-6800 is a case in point. At about the size of an elongated Altoids tin, and weighing 5.8 ounces, it is objectively neither large nor heavy. Yet at 1.2 ounces per cubic inch of volume, pick it up and "solid" comes to mind. It's like the old trick question, "Which weighs more: a pound of feathers, or a pound of iron?" Anyway, something to keep in mind about weight and form factor.
AS A CELL PHONE
Strictly as a cell phone, the XV-6800 is competent. Reception is good, especially given the internal antenna. Voice quality is okay; speakerphone volume could be better. Power phone users may prefer a device with real (not graphical) keys; getting the keypad screen back on to input numbers or navigate phone trees is often an extra step. After the voice speed dial function kept popping up for no apparent reason, I disabled it.
SCREEN
The QVGA (320x240 pixel) touch screen is bright (adjustable in 10 increments), with good contrast, and rich color. At 2.8 inches, there's less "screen door" effect than with larger QVGA screens. Web pages render well, and even the tiny text found on non-mobile optimized web pages is quite readable.
KEYBOARD
About a second after the back-lit QWERTY keyboard clicks open, the screen switches from portrait to landscape viewing mode. Keystrokes offer positive tactile feedback and a muted click to let you know you typed a letter. After a couple of minutes getting used to the function key, you will find yourself thumb-typing away. If you simply can't deal with tiny keyboards, you can always summon the familiar graphical keyboard and hunt-and-peck using the stow-away collapsible stylus.
OPERATING SYSTEM & SOFTWARE
The phone ships with Windows Mobile 6.0 operating system (OS) and Windows Mobile 6 Professional. The OS is stable and seems more crash-free than previous versions, and is helped by the device's abundant memory. Included are pleasantly usable mobile versions of Adobe Reader, Excel, Word (intuitive, with lots of formatting options), and PowerPoint. The Internet Explorer Mobile browser works well (there is a handy launch button top right on front), with websites downloading quickly where the Verizon EV/DO data network is available.
Before considering this device a laptop replacement, though, see if creating spreadsheets and composing documents on a 2.8-inch screen is an appealing idea for you. I don't mind it, but if you are moving toward reading glasses and large text, you may be happier knowing they're there to read email attachments.
RANDOM SETUP TIP
After extensive troubleshooting and re-installs, the device was still not recognized by my PC. Here's what worked: Start > Settings > Connections tab > USB to PC. I then un-checked "Enable advanced network functionality." If it doesn't do the trick, you can re-enable it and move on.
CAMERA
The two megapixel (1600 x 1200) camera takes pretty good pictures. The many edge-of-screen icons suggest daunting complexity, but they are actually an advantage because you won't have to navigate through pages of menus just to check settings. There is slight shutter delay (this is won't replace a serious camera), but for a smartphone, it's better than you would expect. One other note: What looks like an exposed lens is actually a clear and fairly hard lens cover. It is slightly recessed and seems unlikely to scratch.
CONCLUSION
Overall, the XV-6800 is a powerful, flexible, configurable device that will be more rewarding for a tech-savvy user than for someone who thinks of it as "a cell phone with extras."

Leave the laptop behind and stay connected and productive wherever you roam with the XV6800 Smartphone, the newest Windows Mobile 6 Professional Edition device from Verizon. It features an extra-large, 2.8-inch touchscreen as well as a surprise waiting up its sleeve: just slide the top of the phone sideways to reveal a full QWERTY keyboard. And the new Windows Mobile 6 operating system enables you to view and edit Word and Excel documents as well as provides instant message capabilities via Windows Live Messenger. (See more details about Windows Mobile 6 below.) The included Outlook Mobile software offers up-to-date e-mail, calendar and contact information.
It operates on Verizon's North American CDMA voice network, as well as on Verizon's speedy EV-DO data network, which enables you to quickly access audio, video and data applications as well as connect directly to your office's network. You'll be productive wherever you roam thanks to the integrated Wi-Fi connectivity for use at wireless hotspots and access to Verizon's BroadbandAccess Connect service (which lets you use your phone as a modem to your laptop; subscription required). Other features include built-in Bluetooth connectivity (for headsets and stereo headphones), 2-megapixel camera/camcorder, and MicroSD memory card expansion.
Verizon Service With support for the EV-DO high-speed data standard, you'll enjoy fast access to the Internet and Verizon's multimedia services (additional charges applicable), with average download speeds ranging from 400 to 700 Kbps and peak rates up to 2 Mbps. (Learn more about where EV-DO coverage is offered.)
With BroadbandAccess Connect (subscription required), you can use your smartphone as a modem for your notebook when you connect the two using a USB cable--or open a Bluetooth connection--enabling you to access the Internet or your company intranet. The tethered modem capability is ideal when you're traveling and need to use your notebook to check email, access corporate networks, or download large files like presentations and reports.And with BroadbandAccess Connect, you won't have to buy an extra PC Card or other devices.
Verizon's Wireless Sync always-on email service (subscription required), you can stay connected and get the job done while away from the office--without a delay and in a secure environment. Email is delivered to your device in real time across the National Enhanced Services Rate & Coverage Area, and you get the ability to forward large attachments via email as well as access both your personal and corporate emails on one device. Wireless Sync offers strong security with AES encryption (Advanced Encryption Standard) technology so that unauthorized parties cannot access or alter application data transmitted over wireless networks.
Phone Features The sliding keyboard provides a familiar interface and allows for quick and efficient input of information, and the slide-to-hide form factor eliminates bulkiness for a sleek and stylish design. It measures just 0.73 inches thin and weighs a svelte 5.8 ounces. The 2.8-inch color touchscreen transreflective TFT screen automatically orients itself depending on how you hold the phone (i.e., from portrait to landscape and back again). It displays 65,000 colors and has a 320 x 240-pixel resolution.
In addition to supporting EV-DO wireless broadband networking, the Mogul also features Wi-Fi (802.11b/g), which enables you to use open wireless networks at airports and coffee shops. This phone provides Bluetooth version 2.0 wireless connectivity, and includes profiles for communication headset, handsfree car kits, and audio/video remote control. With the A2DP Bluetooth profile, you can stream your music to a pair of compatible Bluetooth stereo headphones. You can connect your laptop (either via Bluetooth or wired USB) and enjoy dial-up networking--surf the Internet, send email, and access files from a server--using Sprint's Mobile Broadband Network. And when connected to a Bluetooth headset, caller information for incoming calls will be spoken through the Bluetooth device. Decide to answer the call without ever looking at your phone.
The 2-megapixel autofocus camera (with up to 8x digital zoom) on the back of the Mogul captures images up to 1600 x 1200 pixels (good enough for prints up to 8 x 10 inches). You can make such camera adjustments as white balance and exposure metering, choose from resolution modes (such as sports for fast-moving action) as well as use of the integrated flash, and set a self-timer of either 2 or 10 seconds. Additionally, the Wing can capture video with or without audio (in MPEG-4, 3GPP2, or H.263 format, the latter being best for sending via MMS). You can also play back audio and video files downloaded from the Internet or sent to you via email using the integrated Windows Media Player.

HTC Touch Phone (Sprint) Review

HTC Touch Phone (Sprint)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am often seeking new toys, electronics that is. And my recent purchase of the touch is something I definably will not be regretting three to six months later when something newer comes out. After doing some research on specs and capabilities on this phone, the I-Phone, Tilt, and some other smart phones that were cheaper but offered similar capabilities, I must say this is the one I would recommend everyone. I've been a long subscriber of Sprint, and was never impressed on how their phones ranked with other service providers, specially since sprint tends to be slightly more expensive than others.
However, after one week of owning this phone I must say that this phone is hands down better than the iphone. I can do much more with this device, and I am able to purchase anything else I might need for whatever I may want to do or need to do. The software is somewhat complex for those who may lack the technical knowledge (no offense), but if you sit down and read the instructions throughly you will find out that it is not that bad, and once you get the hang of it you can actually function around the phone without any restraints.
The camera is adequate, and I say this because I have a digital camera and I did not purchase a phone simply to take picture. But overall, it performs well, and the fact that I can take panoramic pictures and stitch them together is really something I did not expect from this phone. The sports setting which takes 5 shots in a row is extremely useful if you're dealing with kids. The browser is nothing fancy to brag, but I acquired a software to search and view videos on the web (mostly youtube), and I am able to save, bookmark, etc. Most popular websites are now joining the mobile web requirements, enough said on that.
The phone is bluetooth, and the media player actually plays the music much louder than my previous phone through my bluetooth Motorola HT820 stereo headset. The sync function is extremely easy to set up. The touch screen feature is really nice, specially since you can write on the screen with the stylus and the software will type the words for you; this alone speeds up your typing speed if in IM or perhaps typing a memo on the mobile Microsoft word software.
Email accounts are easily set up (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, work email, school, etc) I have them all, and they are sync periodically as I set them.. again this is soo easy once you get the hang of it. Google maps is quite nice, if you're upgrading from a regular phone to a smart phone. The built in memory on the device is adequate, but you can expand it with a micro SD card (up to 4GB), and I recommend you do this and set up the phone to use only that memory (install all the software that did not come with the phone on the memory card instead of the device).Feb 2009 update:
After using this phone for over a year, I was starting to find it out of style and lacking some functionality in comparison to the newer phones that are going on sale. And just as I was getting to upgrade again, I found a way to flash the operating system and upgrade everything on the phone to the point that I was amazed by the capabilities of the device. GPS locked so much faster, I installed a different browser to compete with the safari of the IPHONE, and added so many other applications that are extremely useful, not to mention that I also changed the interface so that it looks just like the newer model from HTC (Diamond). Believe me when I say this, this phone can have soo much potential for those of us who like to tweak electronics and find out what else can we do with it. The fact that is a windows mobile device allows you to do all this stuff, so keep that in mind. But I still want to point out that this device is by far not meant for somebody that is not savvy with electronics.

Samsung i760 Black Phone (Verizon Wireless, Phone Only, No Service) Review

Samsung i760 Black Phone (Verizon Wireless, Phone Only, No Service)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Well, finally a windows based phone, with real key-dialpad outside, full qwerty keyboard, big touch screen... Feature wise this phone has it all that I've ever wanted... real dialing keys were a must for me (hate the soft keys on phones like XV6700, you can never "feel" them and always have to look on the phone to know where to press), full keyboard that you can operate with two thumbs, touch screen (lately there has been a slew of smart phones without touch screens). Everything else typical windows mobile phones usually have by virtue of being windows phones or by virtue of Verizon service (calendar, tasks, office, games, auto-syncing, etc).
To me, its all about hardware of the phone, its useability and performance. Because on the inside, all windows phones are created mostly equal.
This phone has a few minor and major annoyances.
Annoyances:
1) Inability to charge the phone when connected via USB cable. This is annoying two-fold. First of all, because battery is drained faster when the phone is connected to PC, 2nd of all, because phone constantly goes to sleep when its not being charged and thus installation of software can fail unless you keep the phone active (or change power settings temporarely). Obviously, using the phone as a modem for your laptop aint gonna work for long periods of time either.
Thankfully, this major annoyance can be resolved with about $30-40 bucks extra, where one can buy a special crade to charge battery and sync at the same time.
2) No standard mini-USB connectors. A modern phone w/o mini-USB interface in this day and age? I had to buy all new cables for my car, for my work, etc. Annoying!
3) Button placement and stylus placement. One definately has to get used to this. Some of the button placed tend to get pushed more often than they should be...
4) A flap on the power connection. It's bad enough that the connection is not mini-USB, its yet more annoying that the connection is covered with a flimsy-feeling flap that needs to be unhooked and rehooked everytime.
5) Lack of carrying case or pouch or clip. Once again, this can be fixed with extra $$$.
Now, on to the good stuff about this phone, which by a landslide overwhelms the bad:
1) Windows Mobile 6 fixes alot of annoying things that were available in WM5 with older phones. No more random turn-ons, less lockups, alot more options in various software components, etc.
2) Phone is fast.
3) Opening of the sliding keyboard feels solid, snappy, well made.
4) Keyboard has been thought thru well. Keypad works in both states (with opened and unopened keyboard), reset button is easy to reach when needed, keys are easy to press. Overall, nice!
5) Standard and extended batteries are both included! I guess this makes up for the lack of charging usb connection. Extended battery lasts long time. I typically get to the half of the extended battery after 3 days of moderate useage (wireless syncing every 60 minutes, 20 mins of conversation per day, and few hours of playing Bubbles per day)
6) As a phone it performs much better than my previoux XV6700. Obviously, WM6 software is better, but also it definately has better reception vs XV6700.
Overall, my biggest complain with XV6700 and other phones like it, that they were a PDA first and a phone second. Samsung has finally made a PDA Phone that works equilly well as both.
