"At last a device that does everything you need. Staggeringly brilliant."
What I like:
Versatility, range of features, speed and clarity of internet access
What I don't like:
Easy to hit the wrong buttons or open keyboard by accident.
Review:
I bought the MDA after I had read several reviews and even then I was amazed by just how many things this device does in a relatively compact size. I wanted a phone, PDA, MP3, SatNav and camera all in one and it does everything required brilliantly. The only drawback is you need to handle it carefully, and the sliding keyboard can be opened accidentally giving it a flimsy feel.
Battery life is not too bad given the amount of use it gets, but if you use all the features all day then you will probably need a daily charge.
Internet access is extremely fast and is a massive step forward over previous WAP phones.
Highly recommended.
