    You can also back it up to yr pc really easily, if you lose/break it you just retore all yr stuff to a new handset.

    Getting it on
    was looking at these just the other week when I was getting an upgrade (didn't get one of these unfortunately)... they look the absolute dog's bollocks, it's more computer than phone, packed with features.

    Not really up to a PDA replacement though. Too hard to type on (or so I've read many times).

    :p

    Not what I've read.


    "Here the 6600 user runs into difficulty. As a one-thumb 'typist' I found the handset difficult to use, particularly for texting. The industrial design doesn't help, pushing the keys right up against each other, making impossible to feel your way around the keypad as you do when there's space around each key. The joystick, by contrast, is very easy to use with your thumb, and is a big improvement over cursor keys. While you're making a call, it doubles up as the volume control."



    "Business users are more likely to use the 6600's email facility, incorporated into Nokia's Messaging app, which also handles multimedia and text messaging. Here both the Sony Ericsson's P900's pen input and the PalmOne Treo 600's microkeyboard win out over the 9900's SMS-oriented keypad, which ensures the 6600 remains a device for reading messages rather than writing them. Writing an email using a numeric pad is hard enough, but it's doubly so here thanks to the way Nokia has designed the 6600's keypad, as I mentioned above."

    I had a P900 and it was a great phone... as a PDA im not so sure.

    Ive also had a pocket pc - A dell Axim and that was superb as an organiser.. you can pick one up for a couple of hundred notes.... I also used it as an MP3 player and played games on it on the way to work. When you sit it in its cradle, it will also synch up all your emails and tasks you have set up in outlook.

    Recommend both though - the P900 is great for the camera/phone/pda/games but a pocket pc does the PDA stuff miles better.
