Hello,
I will buy this device, but I am interested if somebody wants to tell me quality of hardware... does it have some cranky places or something (quality of joystick, keyboard)? thank you very much

Leb, let me know if you find one. Same situation here. Here is what I found. I am in the US and using ATT.

X800 glofiish no good, too many driver problems
HTC, just too many driver problems and I have an HTC tilt right now and it is sloow, real slow, not worth it
I am thinking about the MITAC MIO A720, read some bad some good, but everything compared nothing too bad overall, I just with it had hsdpa support, but for me it reall has everything else I need and is not too expensive, if cound it cheap at plemix and a few other places, I will look in here to see if you ahve any suggestions

Please someone I need your help!
I have been going through this website almost everyday for hours trying to find the perfect phone- I can't seem to!!
But so far, i find the features and desging of this specific phone (because of it having a keypad and touchscreen) excellent, but whats important is the performance.
If anyone is out there that can tell me how the performace of it is (eg. if it freezes, etc) let me know. If it does I guess its a Blackberry im getting..

Nice looking phone. features are great. If only this phone can deliver the features. Freezes regularly. calls from the phone buttons sometimes dont work. Lousy lousy battery life. Please Please if you want to avoid the frustrations this phone will cause stay away. All my friends including myself have returned it after a day r two. Shame Imate you guys dont seem to learn that you should sell your phones before removing the bugs in them. You should learn from HTC they are making great and high quality phones. I rank it as a 2 out of 10. The same goes for the 6150. I returned that last week.

Ever since i-mate broke ties with HTC and started re-branding chinese phones, its been going downhill. I have tried a few jama's, and they all suck. I wont buy this phone until i get to see others comment on it first.

this phone is outdated already, how much more if it will be released in a month max as pcman says! dude whats the deal with all your exclamation points!! are you mad or something!! The other poster was just giving people here an option aside from the 8150! I think the asus p750 will be released before the 8150. No thanks IMATE, you guys lagged on this one.. You will have the same outcome as the BenQ P50, good idea, but took too long to release..

Stop writing bulshits, u E-ten and so on fans!! 8150 and 6150 ARE avaiable already one month! 8502 and 9502 are on the go!(max 1month until their market release!)
I'm not sure about the microSDHC! No official info for now! Coolsmartphone.com's 8150/6150 review is not mantioned the SDHC support! They should have it!

i-Mate has confirmed a delay in the release of this phone until December at the earliest. It's habit of showing these phones and claiming they'll be available soon for shipping is getting very old. Time to deliver on the product or get out! Look at the E-TEN X800 for specs similar to this device. Who knows what problems this phone will have when it first gets released...

A nicely balanced WM6 phone. Great features: 128 MB RAM, 256 MB ROM, 520 MHZ XScale processor, NVidia graphics accelerator, HSDPA, VGA RES, 3.5 mm audio jack, FM radio, IrDA, BT 2.0. It only lacks GPS, granted. In my opnion it's almost perfect. Good work i-mate!!

None of the 4 Ultimates are available yet. The final software is not built. But it would be available in short time. 6150 and 8150 is good devices! As mentioned 65K Color VGA is TOP!!

Guys why can't u understand that the human eye can not distinguish more than 65k...a screen with that resolution 640x480 it`s more than perfect.Take 2 phones with the same screen resolution but one with 262k and one with 16 mil or one with 65k and one with 16 mil and u will see there`s no visible difference.Sry for my english. Good luck all!!
