jerod38, that uses Pocket PC 2002 (like the iPaq) reather than Smartphone 2002 (like the new Sendo). It's more of a PDA than a phone. I am also intrigued by the sx56, but right now I think I'd rather keep my PDA and phone separate rather than all-in-one, here's why:

- use a cooler-looking smaller form factor for calls
- leave the PDA at home if you don't need it
- no ear smudges on the PDA screen
- no holding a brick to your head

Too right!
A SmartPhone is about as big as I would consider using, a PPC Phone Edition "lump" is way to big for my pockets!

Sorry to say put the Siemens phone looks more like a handhelp PDA than like a phone. And it only supports 4096 colors. SPV seems lot better, it will be a "read phone" with extended functions. Sur Nokia, SonyEricsson and all other manufacturer will have to wake-up if they want to follow...
