    nah, 4 once i cant blame them, i am 100% sure it is the unit...

    check out the Palm Treo 750, does eveything I need.
    I use mine for GPS, MP3, data connection for email/internet/outlook. camera & video.
    Comes with word, excel, powerpoint and PDF viewer.
    It does that handwriting recognition thing, with some practice
    Oh yer don't for get it can make phone calls too

    Pros: see above & excellent phone support

    cons: Phone support only for 3-6 months cant really remember
    about as heavy as every other PDA
    standard battery needs charging every 2-3 days depending on use
    keypad too small but it has a touch onscreen keyboard which is better
    overall: I'd buy one !
    (I got mine as a work freebe), the options was:
    1. blackberry, OMG wash your mouth out
    2. jasjam
    3. Treo 750
    I think I made the right choice

    Well I got an HTC P3600i (Dopod, O2 clone). Does what I want and can load maps if I get a bluetooth GPS.

    A lot smaller than my Xda II which I' veeery happy about...

    Harry,

    I know where you are comming from.
    Recently gave up my simple Kyocera CDMA and took on a LG TU550, car kit and all. Tok a photo with the damn thing, then spent two days reading the book, trying to down load it????

    Unless you want a slide-out keyboard then the HTC TyTN.

    Quad-band GSM, 3.5G, GPS, Bluetooth, Wi-fi, 2.0MP camera, 1.5MP cam on front, Windows mobile 6... the list goes on.
