    You can never have enough reviews, right?

    rz1715 review.

    I believe the 6315 is pretty well linked on this thread, so I'll leave it out.

    ever tried voice dial with this phone with a bluetooth headset atached while the phone is closed??
    i had a prerelease version of this phone and it has been quite instable...
    is it still like this???
    btw i don't like T9 .. it is not very usefull over here in switzerland because we write our sms in dialect
    there are about as many dialects here as there are people :p
    and the worst part of it (for T9) is that there are no writing rules for our dialects so you can write every word in a gazillion of ways

    Thats whats great about the iPaq, you don't need to use PPC. Most iPaq owners I know replace PPC with linux as soon as they buy them. handhelds.org tends to be the site of choice for most people I know.
