Well I bought Vk2000 off of Ebay and I am getting the problem of "no service" after about two minutes. Turn off and on and it is still the same; after two or three minutes it lists as "no service"... help anyone? The vkmobile site is no help since vkmobile is bankrupt and an e-mail listed was bounced back as non-existent account... :(

I still cannot belive this phone is for real. Without the usual miriod of useless functions, REALLY small, stylish yet simple. Simply great!
People writing crap about it are either on the payroll of N, M or SE, either are specifications fanatics, loosing all touch with what a phone needs to be.

Phone look sleek, elegent & stylish because of its' small size. Easy in pocket.
However main problems:
1. After a while, send message cannot be read in the Outbox.
2. After a while, sms send only part 1..2 part cause hang.
3. Need to charge everyday. Battery life low.
4. The speaker get hot after 5 minutes of talks.

Best phone ever!
Just got the phone few days ago, and it's the best cell phone I have so far (for the money). Buy with confidence and trust me the phone work as it's design too.After play with the menu, just adjust the GSM connection and go..Phone is on for 2 days now, make regular calls and still have like half battery left. There are comments that the phone is not good battery life not good bla bla bla negative comments, but my phone works perfect soo far, but this is just my phone meaby... so anyway it could depend were you buy the phone from I think.If you have any questions email me.
Good luck out there! VK2000 rock's!

I bought one when I was at the FIFa world cup. My t-mobile i-mate sp3i broke down - long story and I ended up buying this for 99Euros.
so far I like this phone. I do not care for the camera functions in the current phones - the resolution makes them crappy for now.The only thing I miss is a bluetooth function. If that was included I would say this is a complete enough phone for the purposes I would want a cell phone for.

obviously, this company may have been out of business. these tiny little gadgets are not to everyone's likings. these phones are something teeny weeny things and mostly youngsters will like these as well as old people who don't receive much calls a day and it's lighter for them to carry. for business purpose it's out of question. the strong contender is NOKIA which dominates market share by 70%. but anyone considering these little gadgets it should be only for their second phone.

Do not buy this phone-the battery only last half day-you will have to charge it twise a day, the other thing about this phone -you will not find any support or service with it.

I bought VK2000 yesterday which is only model in Thailand. I do not feel the negative comments in this column. Certainly, the battery life is too short, but most people charge other mobiles everyday. So that this weakness would not be so serious. The point I do not like is that selecting T9 mode is very far way, it takes several presses. Though I have a Sony Ericsson Z520i, but it is a little bit heavy for me, so I am going to change this to VK2000 as a main my mobile.

here i go...........juss picked up VK2000 which is know as i-mobile in Thailand after a long wait. it costed me Bhat.3900/- approx US$ 100/-. i wasn't confident 'bout it's performance till i came back to my country and checked it at my home in a area what i call a bermuda triangle. most phones don't get signall in that area, but this little bit of phone worked flawlessly. it's performance is satisfactory. signal strength is quite strong. one shouldn't expect a great battery life from this little gadget. it's battery is small and amphere rating is low so if you use the phone to make about 10-20 calls each 3-5 minutes everyday then you need to charge this phone everyday. the build quality is solid. regarding getting hot is accetable if you speak for a lesser period and not lengthy conversations.
however i rate this phone as one of the mini maravel gadgets of the year. i can only recommend to have this phone as your second phone if you have another personal number and also if you are going on a private tour it's presence in your pocket makes it light and un-noticable. I dont feel this phone is right for business purpose. i use Nokia for my business and VK for my evening out. if someone can wait for a while more better phones with better features are on the way from VK.
