Hi,

I'm contemplating a purchase of this (http://www.sonyericsson.com/P800/main.htm) Phone/PDA.

Anyone have any experience of using it? Any serious gemlins? etc.

Cheers.

What about T-Mobile's MDA?????

There are 4 (or so) of them in use in our company -> working fine (ok, ... it's got Microsoft Pocket PC 2000 on it -> so it crashes sometimes :D, .. but, .. who cares!!!)

-> but i think these 2 are also ok!!!

-> what about the Blackberry??? (http://www.blackberry.com/)

That's enough to stop me from buying it...:hihi:

Only Joking Erik ;)

Thanks for the tips fellas, but I got my heart set on Sony Ericssons after having a T68i, which ended up getting destroyed, but that's another story. :D

Anyone know when the P900 comes out, in the UK? If it's a long time, I won't be bothered waiting for 4 months...I rather settle with the P800 if it's over 3-4 months...Impatient me, but a Mobile (Cell) is a necessity, which I find vital for up-to-date communications.

Oh, and how is it price wise? It looks really good compared to the P800.

Just noticed this thread!

PLEASE don't get the P800!!!

I found it almost completly useless and impossible to use. At one point I had to turn the phone off to end a call because it was so difficult to work out!

Ended up returning it for your average Nokia phone which works 20times better!

Hope I wasn't to late!

Thanks,

You weren't too late, just waiting on the P900 to come out. ;)

Technology and gizmos aren't a problem for myself, even if ending a call is complex...:)

The P900 is being reviewed in many magz.
I heard of a friend who got one, he's amazed!

Only drawback I heard of is that the menues can be a little slow.

So get the P900!

Technology isn't a problem for me either.

It just seemed that this phone went out of it's way to make things difficult. After being in a call one wrong press with that little stick took you to some other menu which would take another 3 or 4 clicks to get back to the call menu where you could end it! I'm also not made of money :cry: so spending an extra couple of minutes on the phone to people when there is no need does kind of get annoying.

Just a very difficult and frustrating phone to use in my opinion.


Don't know about the P900 but i'm sure it'll be alot better than the 800!
