Yes, you can have a phone call with the GPS functionality active.

I personally use mapopolis. When a call comes through, it covers the bottom portion of the screen, you can click answer or reject call. When you answer the call, it brings it full screen, until you are done. Once you are finished with the call, you close the phone app, and press your GPS hotkey, if you configured it, and no issues, back to normal.

TomTom works great on this Phone. It just saved my cat's life two days ago by finding the nearest vet and their phone #. I'm looking at this phone, and think to myself. It only has to work once, and worth every pennies I spent on this device.

Yes, but it depends on the resolution and the aspect ratio of your video, too.

Got the phone for a week, pretty happy with it. Here is what I find. The screen protector came with the phone makes the screen hard to see under the sun, because the surface side is not crystal clear. So I bought a better screen protector, put it on. The screen is much brigther now and visable under the sun.

Answers to two previous questions:

- depending on where and when you buy this phone, it will have push email. A version with Windows Mobile 5 AKU 2.3 supporting push email is planned to be relased at the end of July

- yes you can synchronise MP3 files - you need to install Active Sync 4.x and in case this still does not work do the following:

1. Plug-in the windows mobile device
2. Go to the Control Panel, and start the Network Connections applet
3. Get the Properties for the network connection for your Windows Mobile Device (usually Local Area Connection number 7 or 4 or something). You can do this by right-clicking the network connection and choosing properties
4. In the ‘This connection uses the following items’ box, try unchecking everything that is not:
a. Client for Microsoft Networks
b. File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft networks
c. Internet Protocol (TCI/IP)
5. Click OK
