Experience: 2 Months
Pros: Small, lightweight, BIG screen!
Runs Windows Mobile 2003SE, which is a lot of fun, and extremely versatile!
Mini-SD Card expandable memory.
Bluetooth.
LED flasher to notify of status.Cons: Somewhat short battery life (I have to charge every 2-3 days, which is actually not untypical)
D-Pad is a rocker -- so pushing left & right doesn't feel natural, and pushing enter (rocker in) takes some practice.
No MegaPixel camera
Can't turn the LED off (though there is software to significantly increase its delay available)
Because it's a program in W2003SE, the camera takes about 5-10 sec to start up.Summary: I absolutely love this phone! Definitely a 'smart' phone, and way better than my old LG C2000 (a 'standard' phone).
The call signal is great, the phone is pretty easy to use (I'm a computer person, myself. Computer-illiterate people probably won't like it), and there are LOTs of options due to W2003SE.
I currently have a 1GB Mini-SD card installed, and people are absolutely amazed when they see it playing The Matrix movie, running Zelda on a freeware NES emulator I found, and even playing First-Person Shooters like Wolfenstein 3D or Doom!
I also purchased the JAVOedge skin, which is a silicon skin to keep it from slipping (since there's no place to attach a lanyard). I keep getting compliments on it -- nobody's seen anything like it before ^_^
The only things I would change, if I could, would be to increase the camera resolution from 640x480 (image) and 176x144 (video) to at least 1.3MP, and make it able to 'feel' more than one keypress at a time (makes playing FPS or action games a bit hard).
Overall, I am really happy with this phone, and plan to keep it for a good long time.
