I have bought this phone yesterday and it works fine, light-weighted, and very good price vs quality.

I am looking at buying this phone (I work for the manufacturer, so nice discount) but one thing I am wondering about: it says 'read email" but I nowhere see "send email". It does send emails too though,r ight? if not, what's the use of the email fucntion?

And how's browsing the internet with the small screen? are websites that are adapted for smartphones or PDA's well viewable?

Thanks!

Just upgraded to this from an SPV. Bought it on the comments in this forum. All good so far but a couple of negative things. It crashed when I plugged it into the power for the second time. The sync with my outlook is taking forever and ever

I agree completely... last time such resolution was seen on Win Mobile was with mpx Motorolas, and that was long time ago.

176x220x16bit resolution is STANDARD for Morons. QVGA (320x240x16bit) or better VGA (640x480x 16bit or 32bit) is standard for the others which use Windows Mobile. 176x220 was never and will be never a standard for any device on Windows Mobile.

This mobile is not for children and morons that look at cameras and radios (LOL).The screen resolution is being STANDARD for windows mobile based devices for a long time and remember this ain`t nokia or SE, you can have more than 20 lines at a time at this display and it`s readable.Most of today`s applications for WM support 176x220x16bit.
The mobile is perfect for those who know what they want.For all others go buy something else, this won`t fit you.

Works like a charm, so many ways to tweak, and despite low res display, text is quite readable. I'm glad I bought this baby!
