    I love it! I really like the mobile phone keyboard rather than the PDA 2k slide out one.
    My only issue is that the Internet browser (IE) does not accept sites that use frames. Does anyone know how to fix that?
    Other than this... functionality is excellent for me :)

      I had my i-mate sp3i for 2 days and it is broken... Be very careful when buying this phone. The durability of this phone is pathetic. My screen cracked without me dropping my phone or any irregulars. This is not covered by the guarantee and i now have to fork up R800. ($125) The scroll button also do not respond sometimes. I would strongly urge you to consider a other phone.

            Yes seems to be a good phone, but how do I turn the speakerphone on? This is surely one of the most NB features yet it seems to be hidden.

                  Can an sp3i user explain the key lock to me please. This is really important as I need to know if the phone can be locked with a security code and how easy that is to do.

                  Thanks

                    I hd one for 6 weeks but grew frutrated at a number of things.

                    1. The joystick is a nightmare.
                    2. Keypad locking is a pain but if you don't do it, the phone operates itself in your pocket.
                    3. MP3 player is ok but because of the joystick, hard to navigate.
                    4. GPRS stays on once initiated. It can be stopped but the manual doesn't tell you how.
                    5. The paint flakes off the keypad.

                    Generally I was very unimpressed with the phone and have exchanged it for a Nokia.

                    Anyonce considering buying this phone should research the imate website - their forums are full of complaints.

                        Very Cool phone.. just got it last week.. has every option you can imagine in a phone, i cant think of anything it doesnt do compared to another phone.. fairly easy to use and nice and small.. my only concern is that the OS does weird things like saying its out of storage when i have 500meg free on the miniSD and sometimes the menu's dont work and i have to turn it off and back on.. sometimes when bluetooth is on, the phone shuts itself off.. only did that once but it was strange. But it is microsoft windows after all and we all know how reliable that is :)

                                this phone is really nice considering the price. pros: plays divx, xvid, wmv, mp3, wma view (not write) all kinds of office files, pdf, SMALL yet powerfull, get/make a 3.5mm headphone adapter(!) and use koss porta pro headphones. cons: camera quality is not uptodate (640x480 is not good, we want megapixels), windows ce pocket pc version IS way better. conclusion: if you want small phone, get this, but consider the i-mate jam/qtek s100 before you buy.. costs a little more, but i would buy s100 instead of this today :-)

                                      for those of you interesting on sp3i.
                                      for the money (i paid $335 on ebay), that's unbeatable. it works like a mini MS windows in your hand, and the mp3 quality is outstanding. also i'll give a lot of credit to its camera coz pics came out really nice as VGA. it has pretty much about everything compare with other high-end phones, i haven't seen any down side yet so far. yes, the keypad is not the highest quality compare with what i have used (p910i/v3/v802se...). but if you use it carefully as a "candy-bar" size cellular phone, i'm damn sure you gonna be alright. the support from www.clubimate.com is excellent as well, you will find pretty much all the Q&A you will have for this phone from there. i think it's just the matter of time to get used to the windows pocket pc OS, trust me you won't be disappointed.
