So why this now someone would say :)
Well we have moved to a new mobile sync. client inside the company called Lotus Traveler
Now the first version only works on Windows mobile devices (PPC and Smartphone) so if i wanted to test out the functionality i had to get a device with this operating system. I am not a fan of PPC line and opted for a slimmer , lighter Smartphone edition coming from Samsung . This is a sweet device and let m tell u why its super thin and super light , the build quality is great no squeaking from it at all and i picked up a used one !
It came with WM 5 installed but with a bit of tweaking i managed to upgrade to WM6 from Samsungs official page . I had some problems but after using a workaround to change the operator settings inside the service menu the update went through like a charm.
aside for some known WM6 bugs and step backs its still a fair product . it has all the conectivity options that you can imagine and my hat of to designers to be able to squeeze this in a small package like the i600 is.
I do not like the specific cable that they used instead of mini usb that also is used with the wired headset so without adapter u can forget about decent stereo reproduction and use of your own ear buds ...
I might also mention that due to running an TI 220 Mhz processor the device tends to be slow sometimes , specially when u run more application in the background . Also the battery life coud be better i get round 1.5 to 2 days max on one charge (moderate use) all do an extended battery is an option and i600 ships with 2 batteries in the box .
