What is it: Windows Mobile-based smart phone
What we think: The mini-touchpad is great, but the i780 is still not as usable as a Blackberry

We like:
Good connectivity; great mini-touchpad; good keyboard
We don't like:
Non-standard power connector; below-par camera; big and bulky
CNET UK judgement:
We like the i780's mini-trackpad and keyboard, but we're not so keen on its bulky dimensions and we still find Windows Mobile 6 quite awkward to use. If you're a Windows Mobile fan, it's worth a look, but we doubt it'll win over many Blackberry users
