Good
- features (i.e. receiving email)
- secure
- long battery life
Bad
- even old farts think its daggy
- looks like a calculator
- keyboard hard to use (normal keypads are faster in my opinion
- ear piece for phone hard to find
- sometimes people can't hear you properly during phone calls (I often get "Are you there??")
- backlight isn't very bright and doesn't come on automatically

I have had this model since 12/04. I travel all over the world. This unit most of the time automatically downloads the necessary service books for the different countries I enter. Sometimes, I have to manually force it by removing the battery for 30+ seconds. Its not much but it is a pain as the start up for this is at leat 3 minutes. The phone portion is good, but I do not like it due to the size, width. I have trouble finding the spot to hear, kind of awkward. When headsets are installed, it is very good and clear. Even in countries like Czech Republic's mountains. My favorite part of the phone is the real time email. And that too is received all over the world.
What I do not like is the attachment viewer. It is just no good. Well, at least for me. I get pdf's and doc's all the time and I just cant view them. Unless I want to pay an extra subscription price of $20 month. My other problem is the internet browsing. It is WAYYYY too limited. This too is better if you pay extra and download a 3rd party program.
Overall, this is a good unit. It is somewhat outdated due to technology. But for the budget, if you get it with a cell provider contract, it is worth it.
