well so far its impressing me .... out of the box its a bit boring' but like the n900 once you've gone into the 'apps market' you can download a multitude of apps to improve and customise your device. Im still learning & getting to grips with what you can do but the main plus's are:

• sat nav - absolutely brilliant, load up time is zero, finds gps instantly, rerouting takes seconds, you can view the map as standard drawn map or if it floats yer boat you can use sattelite photo images which is really interesting.
• the voice recognition software is great although incorrect quite often - its nice to be able to say whilst driving "message wife will be home in ten minutes" and the text message is sent for you
• screen is top notch picture quality
• its light as a feather (makes my n900 seem like a chest of drawers
• ease of use - it seemed a bit difficult to navigate to start with but as time goes by its getting easier & easier
• email - to sync with my pop3 accounts all i needed to do was enter my email address and password and all settings were downloaded autoimatically and email worked!!! wow!!!!
• camera - quality is great but really really miss having a 'real' button to press - hate having to press the touchscreen to take the picture
• multitasking - just works! use an app then start doing something else - only prob i see is that theres no task manager like there is in trhe n900 - if you are in the middle of something to go back to it you have to click the app button to go back to it so no real list of active apps but i saw an app in the market the other day that solves that so will give that a try soon
• speed of device - its so fast - never any lag at all, click an app and it opens. very refreshing after on many occassions with my n900 waiting for an app to open for ages
• keyboard - crap, rubbish, terrible, nasty - i hate the touch screen keyboard - it takes me 4 times longer to write anything - it seems the autocomplete works ina wierd way which means i keep reading back a message i wrote and having to mcorrect many words - im hoping that with time and use this will become less of an issue

so all in all its a great experience ... but no N900.

wheres my hardware keyboard!!!!!!
