Usage update

Mar 12, 2008

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Everything

call quality is also very good as far as I have tested, It is very clear on both ends of the line.

The VGA screen is really beautiful, Indespensible for me when I view excel spreadsheets.
There is an option to use high resolution mode in the pocket internet explorer and the effect is great ! I've never seen that before.

The keyboard is another feature that is really good if you need to enter alot of text. But don't be too rough with the sliding mechanism, that's my advice.

The autofocus on the 3.0mp camera is also very good. I ... Read more
