"Almost perfect"
Pros: It replaces laptops
Cons: Too heavy for a smartphone size
Summary: I am very satisfied. This replaces my DELL laptop quite well... It has the word processor, wi-fi LAN, spreadsheet, fax/data connection.. everything is there in such a small unit

Nokia´s Communicators, even the 9110, which I used until a few days ago I got my 9500, ebable me to do away with my laptop PC in most business trips.
I believe Nokia´s mistake is marketing, they should have marketed it also through computer shops. When people saw it next to small phones they went oh my God, waht a brick! Guess the profile of most people around phone display cases? Right, they are not business users looking for a pocket pc-like tool. When business people go to a phone counter they are looking for a phone.
It would have been and will be a bigger success if they had a little logo of IBM, alone or nexto to Nokia´s.
Another example of how excellent engineers do not understand the users of their products.
I highly recommend the 9500 or 9300 over any PDA I have seen and tested. Obviously there may be special needs justifying otherwise,
