It Can Be upgraded to WM5 !

Nov 4, 2006

Rating: 10 out of 10 (Perfect)
Pros: Everything
Cons: Nothing
Opinion:
If you are using older versions of the it is Buggy. But the latest ROM is Very Stable.
I've upgraded to WM5 and everything (Wi-Fi, Blue Tooth, Media Player, Gprs, GSM, )works wonderful. more info about upgrading goto here : forum.xda-developers.com...

In My opinion, this thing beats even some of the newer pda phones on the market.

btw .... mine is running at 472mhz using XCPUscalar. 520mhz is possible too but the battery drains faster.

don't write this baby off guys ! it's got alot of hidden potential !!!

Pros: Large screen, and that is about it....
Cons: MS Operating System, constant "hanging," VERY POOR Customer Service
Opinion:
My wife bought this for me in Hong Kong when I got a promotion at work, as she was thinking with all my traveling it would be good for me to have a pwerful PDA/phone/work on e-mails. Needless to say, I was very happy.
But that was short-lived. I attempted to register my IIs and the web page would not let me. I sent an e-mail to O2 and they did the usual reply of they will look into this. Nothing happen for 3 weeks, so I re-submitted. Again, got a standard reply and then nothing for 2 weeks. Submitted a 3rd time, and same standard reply. I sent a reply to that person and they said the usual "we have placed your issue at the top with our Help Desk." 2 weeks later, nothing. I called O2 to complain and all I did was get a the "phone-tag" that saw me ending up talking to some guy in the ... Read more

 

Good Choice for PDA-phone

May 8, 2006

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Wi-fi Connectivity, Good Design
Cons: the older ROM is not stable .. upgrade ur ROM ..!
Opinion:
I also heard that the previous XDA IIs's has the lack in wi-fi and the sliding keyboard especially those released in Indonesian market in early 05. I don't know anymore about that issues but i've already told that's issues was fixed with the mid-05 releases.

This is my 2nd PDA after my 6365 but i suggest to upgrade the ROM to 1.40 and it make the immediate impact cuz it's more stable and i could use mp3 files as ringtone

Bugs On Early Edition

Jan 23, 2006

Rating: 3 out of 10 (Poor)
Pros: Big and clear screen, multi function PDA, thumb keyboard
Cons: Slide keyboard weakest point, Pocket PC not stabel
Opinion:
I bought it since it was initially introduced in Indonesia Dec'04. And after 1 year, I can only use it for 8 months. Several times go back and forth to the service center due to touch screen not working, seems related to connection between the screen to the motherboard via sliding connector. Now not working at all, and 1 year warranty is over. Don't know how much I have to pay for the repair cost. The store where I bought it say that 1000 initial sets has been recalled beginning 05, and I never been informed!
