SP3i, Issues?

[Guest duke_stix]

Hey all

I'm relatively new to the whole 'smartphone' scene and i started out with a bargain of an E200 and it got me hungry for more!

I've got the chance to get an I-Mate SP3i and I'm hearing things about 'known issues' with this phone.

What im wondering is, WHAT known issues are there with this phone, are they repair-able, can it be done without sending it in for repair, are they major issues?

I guess what im trying to ask is quite simply, do current users of the phone have any issues with it? is it a nice phone?

thanx

Like you, I have done a lot of research on this phone. I just bought one and I have no problems with it except some difficulty in getting my MMS set up, and my phone is not supported by my SP, so anything I do with it is trial and error anyway. Everything else works. There were complaints about the joystick and this was apparently corrected (among other things) in a new hardware version called HT5 I think. Honestly, I have NO problems with mine.
