The $300 phone boasts some pretty good features for the price, including EDGE data, Bluetooth, a QVGA screen, and a 1.3 megapixel camera. The real kicker is the WiFi connectivity lacking in its 2125 cousin from Cingular, but how does it hold up under rigorous solitaire play and indiscriminate texting of ex-lovers? You'll have to read on to find out."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/images/Temporale-20060420-EngadgetMobileSDA.jpg" alt="User submitted image" title="User submitted image"/> <br /><br />Paul Miller over at Engadget Mobile, has posted a review of T-Mobile's SDA Smartphone. Everyone here seems to be impressed with their SDA, so I'm sure you're not surprised to hear that Paul likes it too. :D

I don't know if this is because of the hump or not but I used to have a BB 7100t through tmo and I could barely make a call from my house and I could almost never use the data plan. Now that I have my SDA I can send and receive calls as well as use my data plan 90% of the time (though I usually use wifi). I may never go humpless again :D

i just bought one of these for my girlfriend. shes a little tired of the pink razr and wanted a phone that did more, plus she hates her cd changer and wants something portable like my 2125.

i was thinking of kicking her down my 2125 but she was having non of that. the SDA is clearly the cuter of the two devices so she must have it. oy, before you know it ill have my own "honeydo" list ;) :lol:

i have the sda as well.

i am noticing a slight memory problem. when i reboot the phone it has 28Mb of memory. and if i use the task manager to "stop all" of the programs the highest memory count is 22Mb.

it doesn't cause any major slowdown of the phone, but i thought it was interesting.
