Excellent!I have it for two days and I'm amazed.I thought it would take me more to get to know it and all the features but no.OK, I have good experience with Pocket Pc's and PC 's but still this is the best smartphone by far! If I was to say anything other than that then I would have to be a jealous guy. Congratulations HTC. You rule definitely.

Hey, well I think this phone is just great. Ofcourse you could have put a 2 mp camera in it, but as long as it's a good lens, it doesn't matter, well not that much, of course the pixels means something to the picture, but in the end it's the lens, which decides if the picture is good or bad.
Well, I'm looking forward, to watch this phone in a closer perspective. It sounds like a very cooL phone, and it has got some awfull features, wi-fi!
Yo,

I bought this phone recently and its all you can ever want in a phone. Its small, but not to small. It has more functionalities than you can imagine. The possibilities are almost endless.
Regarding the questions about it having touch screen. No it does not have that.
If I should say something slighty negative about the phone, it would be that the manual isnt very good. It dosnt describe all functionalities.

why don't they combine both pdas and phones together ? have a pda in a compact form factor of a phone. one of these with video calling would be awesome. also they should implement an fm radio and flash into their phones and they will be perfect phones.

Hmm... I think that Skype will be compatible, some people said there will be a special version for Smartphones. We'll see soon.

My C500 is broken so I'll buy this one (and even if my C500 was not broken, I'll buy it anyway). Wifi will be great and the design is delicious! The screen resolution is great (QVGA: 240*320), the camera is 1.3 megapix, there is EDGE... I just hope that the price will be under $400...

Looks a worthy successor to the SPV C500 (HTC Typhoon) but what about VOIP over WIFI. I understand "SKYPE" needs a 400 MHZ processor to work?

One other upgraded feature I forgot to mention...this phone is quad band. The sp3i is tri-band (although you can buy it with different frequencies enabled for different markets).

This is a nice looking phone. It seems to be an update to the sp3i, with the upgrades being:
-better bluetooth implementation
-better connectivity (EDGE, WiFi)
-better camera (1.3mp, previously it was 0.3)
-more storage (up to 8gb)
-bigger screen
-GPS kit (optional)

As long as this has the same interface as the sp3i, I am definitely going to get one. What I like BEST about the sp3i's interface is that the address book has a T9 search. This makes it really easy and fast to find contacts. You don't have to do multiple keypresses to get to the right letter, and you don't have to wait for the cursor to advance. What I mean is, if you need to find albert:
- you press the 2 key and it finds all matches for A, B, and C.
-then you press the 5 key and it finds all matches for AJ, AK, AL, BJ, BK, BL, CJ, CK, CL
-next you press the 2 key and it finds
AJA, AJB, AJC
ALA, ALB, ALC
etc.

It might seem like a lot, but with 3 letters usually 90% of the combinations are meaningless, so you narrow it down very quickly. I have 2,000 contacts and usually find the person I am looking for in 3 or 4 keys. It is superb!

If this phone has all of these features, and gps, I am getting it. My only concern is, how do you use the gps or the camera if you are on the phone? I guess a headset would be useful.

Well done, HTC. Looks like you have come out with another fantastic phone. I hate sliders and flips and all that nonsense. I really like basic candy bar shapes and I hate phones that are too wide as they are uncomfortable to hold.

I also don't like touch screens as they are always getting dirty, get scratched, and provide no tactile feedback. Unless you look at it, you don't know which button you are pressing, whereas you can dial or type in text without looking at a keyboard.

All that said, if you really need to edit MS Office stuff, then this is not the phone for you. The small screen and keyboard would make that difficult. I think surfing the web would also be a bit challenging. I don't do those things on the go...so it's not a big deal for me.

Heillo members of Qtek, while you make good business mobile phones, you seems to be lackiing behind in terms of needed techical specifications in today's and tomorrow's mobile phones. By that i mean that should learn to include UMTS, WiFi, slot cards, FM radio, fax, and Microsoft office capabilities, in addition to your current specs. Introducing new phones to the market without these specs make no sense. So Qtek, just do it!
