After so many post here about all the problems and if you still want an ATOMIC BOMB waiting to explode infront of your face... then please do go ahead with purchasing it.
There is no better way of finding it out yourself what a piece of crap this device is. I am just fed up with it. It's just not good enought for something worth over $1000 Australian Dollars.
Just not good enough!!!
The next person should read all the post before asking about buying it. We have posted so many problems time after time and yet people still asking it.
If only O2 bothered with fixing it.

I have a O2 Atom, and is it just me or do all the fellow users out there find that their Atom shuts itself off for no reason? On average mine turns off once every week, and I have upgraded the ROM!

If you want to use GPS on the O2 Atom, you will need 2 things... A GPS Receiver and a GPS software. There are a few software but I prefer TOMTOM over DESTINATOR as it's faster. DESTINATOR have got better map but it's slow to response.
The O2 Atom is too slow and unstable and that's why many people here experiencing HANGING etc...
I think the CPU is not that all great and O2 better fix it. I hope they do 'cause their product is crap right now.

After 3 days using Atom, I found (can you help me, I'm using the last ROM):
1. After softreset the phone become hang, only display the blue O2 screen. So if I need soft reset I just opened the battery.
2. Sometime when I play the music file in WM10 and hear the Radio, the noise like 'tok tok tok', but after I opened the battery become normal again
3. There roaming sign (reverse triangle) in the display, altough I using home network.
4. I can't using GPRS data services even already using 'Auto Congfigurator' but can connected using CSD.
5. Sometimes you can't turn off the loudspeaker.
Atom is far far far away from perfect, but still can you using for just call and sms :P

Ofcourse I know how to use my PDA mate. But if you really all the post, you will see that it's not only me talking about this but the rest of the world also saying there are problems with this O2 ATOM.
I use Wireless internet on my ATOM at work and at home. I use it as GPS with Tomtom installed, weather software, world time and many other stuff too.
Dont you think I dont know how to use it man especially when I work in IT.
Don't tell me if you are saying this ATOM does not lag or slow then any other PDA, unless you havent use other PDA yet.
This ATOM is a failure for those people who know how to use all of it feature... but for the simple users it's still good.
But to me and many other, it's a failure!!!

Big Big Problem with Atom
1) Speaker problem (many times) get it exchanged for new sets and still the same problem. Sound break and lag all the time for Ringtone and playing MP3.
2) Bluetooth problem- have to count until 5 after pressing the answer button before the other party can hear me..Bring to service center but still cannot solve my problems.
3) Device hang- showing a blue "02 Screen" hard reset and soft reset cannot even solve the problem!! Terrible
4) Ever since I purchase Atom since last december. It has been in service center for almost coming 3 months in total and problem still not solved yet.
4) Want to get a refund after exchanged and repaired for 5 times in all but the manager just refused to refund.
If anyone got to advice me about the Rom upgrade...I have did it all but it still can't work!!
Overall, this phone is for people who want great features but who does not use any of the extra features except to answer phone calls. (But let me warn you, I heard it got problem too!!)
Conclusion its a terrible phone with a horrible customer service department!!

It's still no good with all the new ROM. I have upgrade all to the latest ROM many time and hoping that it will make it faster but as alway... dissapointment.
Once again. DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!!!! Full stop.

This have got to be the SLOWEST and the most LAGGING PDA i have ever seen. I have use it for the last 3 months now...
My recommendation to everyone is NOT to buy it. It's just not worth the money.
O2 have ripped me off for sure with this one. It's just too slow and unstable as I have to reset it all the time. Something is not right with the HARDWARE of it.
All I love all the specifications come with it but it's not worth it as what is the point to having all these specs and yet it's not working probably?
I have REGRET buying this O2 Atom and from my honest recommendation to everyone is... DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE Until they have fix all the problems.
