Default Another iMate SP5m Review

http://www.howardchui.com/modules.php?name=Sections&op=viewarticle&artid=228

"In the past I've found Windows Mobile Powered Smartphone to be great connected devices for surfing the web, checking email and instant messaging (even though they only support MSN Messenger out of the box). At the same time, they weren't the greatest devices for listening to music/watching video. While they supported removable memory cards and had the necessary software the overall user experience usually left something to be desired."

There is always room for one more SP5m review and here it is. I would like this phone a lot more if it had a hump. :lol:

I was with Howard at the Mobius conference last December. Great guy - in case anyone is wondering.

Anyway, I think he's done a pretty good job on the review. I would agree with most of his negative points/concerns about this phone. However, I still think it's one of the best Windows Mobile Smartphones released today. :mrgreen:

It sounds like he wasn't to pleased with the RF on the i-Mate.

Wonder if the 2125 would fare better in his opinion? (And yes, we all know about the cosmetic blemishes that may have been required for said RF improvements...)
