Yeah there great phones, the modem is hardware not soft so more reliable
some nice features it will easily take 150 SMS messages and the phone book
can take at least 1000 numbers (more like 1500). Originally i thought the
software was very unstable, but after a few initial crashes it works grand
I put mine in a glass of fruit drink and it still works grand was a bit sticky
for a while
Oh and the data lead for it is cheap and the software (M$ stuff) comes
with it....

Yeah they have run the internal trials, dont know about external ones (the
only
one i know of was canceled....)
I actually thought it would be sooner then september.
6310 will be nice pitty its ugly as sin....... ;-)
BTW GPRS will be slow to start (less the 33.6) with and there is also a new
standard being
launched (check out http://www.gsmworld.com/) which could see the focus away
from GPRS
Personally i think the mobile business is going to crash and burn one day soon,
unless they relax the pace, and watch the cash.....
