I would think having these issues brought up in a review here would help us speed along the resolution process.
The issue is when typing in certain text fields, you are unable to input letters if that key also has a number or certain symbols associated with it using the FN key. As an example, typing in "123 Jeff Rd" would input "123 J155 34". There is a user over at the HoFo forums that has tried on a C630 and says that it suffers from this same input bug as the Dopod C730.
It would be great to get more exposure on this issue and figure out where the problem lies.

DITTO. I've got the 630 and have this text input problem in the named applications. However when I attempt to input any letters that also have numbers on the keys, I don't get the numbers, the phone just beeps at you like "hey you idiot, you're only supposed to put letters here and you are typing in numbers!". Given how one of the 'features' of SM/WM6 Standard devices is 'smart' field input where it automatically changes from text to numbers and vice versa based on the field you are entering data into, I'd be shocked if this weren't just a generic WM6 Standard issue and not device specific.
No way around it that I can figure out.
VERY FRUSTRATING and it would be GREAT to get some real attention to this shortcoming.
