    From the article:


    I may be old fashioned, but there are a couple of things I would have thought that a mobile phone would do. Make calls and send SMS's being top of the list. Sadly, the experience I've had with my SPV doesn't make this possible.


    Wow... a phone review of a something that doesn't function like a mobile phone. Truly News for Nerds, Stuff that Matters.

    who gives a fuck about MS Stinker?
    You'll need virus checkers etc to stop your phone from being hacked and stop these viruses from phoning premuim rate numbers.

    MS have little support for Stinker - FACT.

    Symbian is the way to go - Nokia et al are going to wipe Stinker across the floor.

    Symbian is extremely stable - just take Psion 3, 5 etc as examples.

    Symbian - the way to go.
