had this phone for over 18months and still can't find one better. GPS, satnav, music, radio, memory map for cycling, camera - oh and I can make calls. Slim body makes it easy to carry and the battery life is brilliant. Looked at N95 8GB and really can't switch to the brick. The one thing I would like is a better camera.

> In reply to Anonymous @ 2008-05-22 12:57 from v35VI've never had a problem with this phone in almost 18 months continual use, using WM5. Both the phone and the GPS work perfectly. My Business partner upgraded his to WM6 many months ago, and he is also 100% satisfied with his phone. I would happily have another one to replace this one with, when the time comes to change.

I have a problem with the alarm which keeps going of at 03:45 in the morning. If the alarms are set for 06:00 it still goes off at 03:45 and 06:00.

I have reset the phone, removed the battery changed all three alarm times but to no avail.

Also sometimes when dialing the person on the other side answers but I does hear a dialling tone or the persons voice until I have phoned a 2nd time.
Otherwise a great phone

Any ideas?

I've had this xda for abour 4 months now, and i am very impressed with the functions it has for what i need. I needed a phone with an organiser and satnav. This syncs up with my laptop, along with being on O2 network, never drops calls and the battery life is just great. Only funny is the thumbwheel on the front, Thats a but hard to get around. But scores a 7/10 in my books.
