The Wi-Fi is very good, and I use the BlueFire VPN client so that I can manage my servers from it over AT&T's network which works great. I've had mine for a little over 6 months and there's not a scratch on it. Holds up very well, but of course that has a lot to do with who is using it. TVK

Will the device hold up to normal use for a couple years?

I am running WM6.1 for the Diamond on it and after upgrading the radio from the "craptastic" one that AT&T loads, I now get 4-5 days per charge and I use it for Email, Texting, camera, and playing games while waiting to be seated at restaurants etc. Really a great device, I highly recommend it. And I would seriously doubt that a Blackberry could possibly be any less work since managing WM devices is EXTREMELY simple to do.

The Samsung Blackjack II is also good if you don't need the latest, and want the thumbboard style keyboard: Here's a length HTC Diamond vs. I900 review. http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_touch_diamond_vs_samsung_i900_omnia-review-262.php Of course, with mobile telephony being so backward in the US (g, d & r), who knows when you'll see these phone available :-) Cheers Ken From: Roger Wright [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, 1 August 2008 11:37 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: OT: Smartphone Recommendations A couple of or sales people are asking for recommendations to replace their cell phones. I'm dated enough that all I look for is a phone I can use as a phone, and although my Cingular 3125 runs Windows Mobile I'm not using it for email or internet access. But I know the sales staff would need both. We're running Exchange 2003 with OWA so WM5/6 should work fine for us. Any recommendations for a solid phone and/or service I could pass on to them? All the other cool features (camera/media player/games/texting, etc.) would only be of considered if the phone and internet/email capabilities were reliable. ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
