Hi Bodum,
If you and Marc SE like it that's fine by me look forward to hearing what you think of it in use, we all appreciate different things i loved my N93 still think it is a great device and you most probably hated it. I will never say never maybe in the flesh it will redeem itself but from what i have seen it is very plastic and i prefer metal to plastic so just doesn't appeal yet.
Marc

as much as I like the design, I won't be getting this one as I got my eyes set on the T650i. I already have a Nokia e65 for work and while the specifications and looks might be good for me, this phone just doesn't have that extra bit of zing that makes me want to get it. as a secondary handset? the T650i still wins I say

Well I'll post some thoughts about it when I get my hands on one.
The one thing I really want to use it for is HSDPA (in that, replacing my K800i as the BT modem for my MacBook). Taking a hit with the 2MP camera *as opposed to the 3.2MP on my K800i* but can't have everything. Might have to try and use the P1i camera a little more.
Roll on 25th May!

Hi Marc-SE,
will be interested to see how it performs hadn't realised Voda were running HSDPA although with there Data charges there is no way i would use them.
I'll stick with T-Mobile till my next review and then may just go with 3 for their Slingbox offers.
Marc

Sorry - I should've made it a little clearer. I'm planning on getting the handset unlocked and then chucking in my T-Mob simcard.
Will post up some thoughts when I get it.

I personally like the looks of this phone, but I too read Stuff magazines report and was put off, for me it doesn't have any redeeming features, that said it is the only Motorola I have looked twice at in the last few years!
@ Marc_se
please do give full reports as soon as you are able!

No Linux on this one as it is actually the first UIQ3 non touchscreen phone so the UI interface should be a step up from the normal Moto offerings and apparently works very well.
The other unique point of this device is the fact it will use Micro Sd cards 4gb now and is able to support up to 32gb when they become available.
