"Close to being a great PPC phone"
Pros: Great functionality
Cons: Size, no WiFi or Bluetooth, SD card slot location, sensitive OS requires hard reset periodically
Summary: After owning this for a year; I think I'll stick with this over the i730 or go to the HP6315/20/25 models as they have integrated WiFi and Bluetooth. I like just about everything about this except for size, but the screen is a good size compared to the i730, so it's not hard to look past the overall size. I never really thought about it really until I got the i730. Lock Keys option is a great idea, but the power button doesn't have a definitive click or other hard difference so the phone can turn on in your pocket if the power button is accidentally pressed; it should be a switch that clicks from side-to-side or something like that. SD card slot placement is ridiculous as it's at the meat of your thumb (holding it in the left hand); should be on the right side of the phone. I would consider keeping it and just using SD WiFi and Bluetooth cards if the slot was on the right. Stylus placement is kind of dumb with it at the bottom-right as well. Should be at the top-right and move the antenna over to the top-left.
