The perfect phone? Almost.

Pros: Super small. Very intuitive. Big features. True multitasking. Walkman function easily replaced my ipod.

Cons: Expensive. Seems like the screen & keys could've been a bit bigger. NO AUTOFOCUS?!

I am in love with this phone (borderline sexual attraction). It's so thoughtfully designed, that I didn't even have to read the instructions. A 2 megapixel camera, 1GB storage (I already upgraded to 2GB), a wonderful music player, email suppo...rt, extremely small (I keep checking my pocket to make sure it's still in there) and it comes with quality accessories (great earbuds, transfer cables, etc). Metal construction gives the phone a very high quality, solid feel, but without being too heavy. The back of the phone has a rubbery feel that makes it easy to hold onto. I scored its value a bit low because it is very expensive by my standards ($500), but still worth it, considering you get an awesome phone, decent camera AND an ipod. The first day I had this phone I was sitting at a coffee shop browsing top news stories and listening to music, when I got a phone call. The music volume slowly tappered off and was replaced by a ring tone, just as a translucent caller ID box superimposed over the news article. When the call was done, the music kicked back in and I kept reading my article. All this happened by hitting only ONE button (answer). I also have gone online to get driving maps, used the TrackID feature to find out "who plays that song we're listening to?" All in all, this phone is near perfect. If I could change anything, it would be putting autofocus on the camera (maybe a flash too) and probably moving to Europe, where the more exotic features, like video conferencing and 3G network, would function. I highly recommend this phone. If you're a tech junkie, you won't be disappointed. Read more Less
