I have been on the lookout for a SmartPhone with all the bells and whistles. I wanted to get a phone with a qwerty keypad and good connectivity (3G/GPRS/Quad Band etc) and The Samsung i600 came on my radar.
What I wanted to find out was, what people think of it?? I have also got the Palm Treo 500 on my radar as well and need some views on which one I should plump for Thanks in advance |

I struggled to make a day on one battery usually get an alert by mid afternoon unless the number of voice calls had been light. The Palm is ok, but is quite a bit bulkier than the i600 which could go in your shirt pocket very comfortably. -------------------- - spacerace -

Battery life is a pet hate of mine
