had the phone just over two weeks, and some minor niggles but nothing too major - it's a definite contender for the smart phone crown.

I waited for more than a month to get my hands on this bad-boy ... definitely worth it -cool keyboard, takes some getting used to but it's good, really good!

Sony Ericsson have finally come up with their own cheaper (and might I add, more sophisticated looking) version of the iPhone. The only minor downside is that the camera isn't as good as it could be..

This phone looks great and I love Sony Ericcson's but after a few weeks of using this phone every day, I only have one thing to say, it's disappointingly slow.

I was torn between this & HTC Touch Pro. I wasn't interested in the iPhone & I didn't want a Blackberry and to begin with I couldn't work it at all.

This is my first Windows based phone which I expect made it seem more complicated.

I've now finally got the hang of it & I love it.
