NEVER AGAIN.

I don’t know what I was thinking the day I handed over my hard earned cash (well, signed a 24-month contract to slowly and painfully hand over my hard earned cash over 2 years) for a phone which was overpriced and very, very, very disappointing.

ActiveSync just didn’t work properly. The phone was slow. It recorded weird contacts. It has no functionality to MOVE contacts from SIM to phone or vice versa. It won’t sync with Apple’s iSync because apparently Windows Mobile is different to normal mobile devices. Sometimes it’d record a phonecall to an arbitrary 1300 number as a call to someone in my address book (even though the two numbers bore no further resemblance than a single digit). The microphone would randomly cut out but the problem has mysteriously disappeared.

In a nutshell, this device doesn’t even come close to justifying its massive price tag. I’m selling it and getting an iPhone. Yes, having an iPhone means I’m tethered to iTunes/iSync, but I’d rather that and be able to use it on ANY computer with iTunes than use a sub-standard piece of phone software that, quite frankly, gives me an ulcer just looking at it.
