View photos, HTML, and even native Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint attachments. Synchronize your corporate Microsoft Exchange email and calendar with built-in Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync. Or, opt to exchange quick thoughts, ideas, and images on the fly – all from a single inbox – with the built-in text and picture messaging application.

    Overall a nice piece of gear -- but...

    Pros: Size, useable keyboard, nice screen

    Cons: A bit heavy and a sub-marginal camera...

    Well... I told myself before I bought this phone that it would be great: I could finally have a phone and a full-fledged PDA in one unit. And I got what I asked for. It performs well. The keyboard, though small, is certainly well designed and useabl...e after you've mastered the alternate key button for numbers and/or symbols. At first I thought I'd miss not being able to write "grafitti style" but quickly found I didn't need it at all. The screen is sharp and clear, although just a touch on the small side. The expansion card slot is great. I put a 1-gig SD card in mine and loaded it with all my favorite Palm programs. Runs 'em all without a hitch! The camera sucks (lousy image, even at 640 X 480), but then I don't use it all that much so it's no big loss. I like the unit a lot, all things considered. If I could change anything about it, I'd cut its weight by about half and the price by about a third. I'd also find better web browsing software. Actually, browsing the web is not a big deal; If I'm going to check the web for something, I'm going to use a real computer with a real screen. The Instant Messaging and Email works well, though, and are both practical and useful applications with this phone. Read more Less
