• Top application: Mail for Exchange
  • Great functionality, on & off user-generated peak times
• All the additional applications are handily pre-loaded on the mem card (which is a Micro slot) and you just install the ones you want
• For you CrackBerry addicts, it comes with the software to seamlessly connect to the BB Enterprise server (now you can have a BB with all the cool toys..)
• It connects to fucking everything.. 3g, wifi, blue tooth, infra etc. BUT lacks a GPS receiving antenna, but with the piss-cheap price of the blue tooth-able external receivers, just stick it in your car and you’ll never even notice.
• Menu design could be better – maybe a 2 column list? But you can move any of the icons around and between folders to suit what ever you want.
• Web cursor when browsing very refreshing, great for normal site viewing
• Great slim design – even though it’s wider than my previous phone, it fits in the pocker much easier and feels much nicer
• Also can connect to a podcast server seamlessly
• Regarding the sales package, only thing I was disappointed by was the lack of case – it comes with NOTHING.
• Very rich colour and a great wide display for movies and pictures. Camera has a very quick capture rate.

Over all a nice freedom we once took for granted is that the phone isn’t tied to a particular network etc. I bought mine for $619 from a great bloke up in QLD at NextMobile.com.au – he has the very best price for genuine articles, and also at $12 for air express post it landed in Sydney the next day. Considering other stores wanted well in excess of $650, and some over $700 (ex P&H) it’s definitely the best buy. Call me obsessed – but I like to call it passionate. This guy is obsessed – he talks about his pre-bedtime e61i use. I just like toys. If you don’t then you’ll never understand. Go hug a fucking tree or something and let me enjoy my materialism, at least it makes me happy and their arent multi-billion dollar industries hating me. Their loving me. And I’m loving their money.
