I finally decided on one of the new Palm phones, which has all of the features I want. If you have an event that you do the third saturday of every month or once every 90 days, you have to enter every event by hand.2. From what I could see, the phone would only allow for.txt documents.I figured for the amount of money I was spending, I should at least have the option of doing a.doc out of the box and being able to put in a repeat event.I ended up purchasing the Nokia E71, however, I had the same problem with the calendar. I purchased this phone from Amazon recently but ended up returning it. If you need to have the option to put in an event in the calendar at at times other than those listed above, be prepared to enter them all by hand. The main problems I had with the phone were:1. Although it seemed like a cool phone, it did not have some of the features I wanted. Your only options for putting a repeating event in the calendar are daily, weekly, every two weeks, monthly and yearly.
Handset sound quality is a bit low, but overall great quality. Nice phone with good features.
It just does not compare, this phone has so many more features, and a drastically nicer screen size. I am really impressed with this phone, its so much nicer then the Blackberry pearl. My friend just bought a Pearl and then saw my phone and returned it.
Thus far I haven't found out whether it's the phone's or carrier's fault.-- Keyboard - It's spacious and it has 4 extra keys than the typical smartphone keypad. It's very pleasant to browse the Internet on this phone.-- PIM - Contacts, Calendar, notes, tasks are average.-- Bluetooth - Uses Bluetooth 1.2. Here's something fantastic. However, the phone comes with a 2GB MicroSD card.-- Media - The digital camera is average. The rest of the features are pretty much great. I have worked with a few smartphones before and let me tell you the Nokia E61i is one of the best ones. If this phone had a mini USB port and a 3.5 headphone jack (or at least support bluetooth stereo), I think this would be the best smartphone out there. The external speaker is loud.
So, I have to dial my voicemail to clear the voicemail indicator. There is no support for stereo headsets.-- Memory - It only has ~60MB available to install apps. Unlike the Blackberry you have to press Alt + M to get the period. You can play music and videos but you need an adapter if you are going to use headsets.All in all a great phone. I have email set up to check every 15 minutes accessing Wifi and GPRS connections and use bluetooth in the car from/to work and I only charge the phone every 3 days.-- Screen - It's big. You can record your phone conversations if you like. So, in other words you can type up a message really fast.-- Wireless - You can group Wifi access appoints with GPRS connections so when checking email the phone automatically switches between the available connections.-- Battery - Lasts a long time. That said, those are the two major flaws of the phone.
Some of the most used characters when typing a message like the period, comma, ".", "@", and "/", you do not have to press an option key like the Alt to get these characters; you just type away. I use T-mobile and every time I turn on the phone, the phone tells me that I have a voicemail even though I don't. Here are my points:-- Phone/Voice - The sound quality on a voicecall is good. No complaints here.-- Voicemail - There is an issue with my voicemail.
battery life is excellent. large screen bright and easy to read. great phone. easy to use as a thetered modem. good bang for the buck does everything. internet, chatting on any IM system, office editing etc.
