What I really love about the phone is the design, the screen and the ease of use. The sms function is absolutely wonderful and speedy. The iTap text input is constantly on alert when you type a word. It selects the most probable word for you and displays a whole list of other possible words, including the saved words you have added to the dictionary, and lines them up by order of most frequently used. Beats Nokia's system hands down! The menus are speedy, easy and fast. Only the Java apps seem to lag. The memory ain't that bad, I could get away with about 12 high-res megapixel photos. Just transfer your photos to your PC daily and you should be safe. Finger-writing technology is really easy to use and it's a nice touch when you're bored. Great 3d engine, nice keypad, tactile and well built, nice feedback with every touch. After using Nokia's cheap plastic keypad for years, this feels like heaven. But the phone is still pricey, selling for S$530, but only S$48 with a plan??? Why such a huge price difference? Good build quality as well, nice loud ringtones. Only the volume cannot be set as loud as my previous Nokia when you talk. Other than that, great buy!
