I've bought O2 Atom Life few days ago and would like to seek your advice on:
1) how to activeSync the information, such as Contacts, Tasks, and Schedule, etc. (which were stored data of my previous handset-HP iPAQ 6828)to my Atome Life;
2) what is/are the technical support hotline of O2 in HK.
Thank you for kind assistance.

I'd first like to say to all of you reading these reviews, the majority of people that post a review have had a bad experience. Their anger is motivation to rip on any product. Most people that have a good experience will not spend the time to write a review so the majority of what you will read on here is all negative. All products have recalls and quality issues...it's just how it is with anything...dvd players, phones, cars, etc.
I've had my Atom Life for a while now and it works great. This is an incredible phone. Windows Mobile 6 is really needed though. Some of the problems people on here are complaining about is a Microsoft issue with Mobile 5.0. Upgrade to 6.0 or just buy one with it and you wont have these problems. I've had many pocket pc phones including the XDA I, II, II mini, and more and they were great but it just keeps getting better with O2!

The 02 Atom Life is absolute rubbish!! It reboots every time I shutdown my computer (think it's something to do with ActiveSync) and at other times when I try to turn it on. It rarely reconnects to ActiveSync after being disconnected and I have to reboot it manually. It's also hideously slow, even compared to my old O2 XDA IIs which it replaced. I've got a new iPhone 3G on order!

i got a little upset when my O2 XDA Atom life become erosed, especially on its keypad. i went to the O2 service, but they said there is no guarantee for its keypad. Making me more upset, O2 services don't provide the new keypad if i want to buy it.
i hope O2 services just don't sell the new product, but they should provide the best quality service for their consumer to improve their income.

After 3 days of reading and searching for the best PDA, my search finally brought my attention to Atom Life. I'm using it right now for 4 days already and immediately upgraded to WM6 6.1.1 (thanks to XDA-DEVELOPERS)
Here are my findings and my personal experience so far and some things that needs to be fix and improve: (attention to O2)
1. Camera has a slow response. VERY VERY Slow. The camera is somehow useless.
2. Sound is terrible when playing MP3 using the headset, what more if you use the built-in speaker.
3. On the CPU Profile, there is a big difference between Best Performance and Best Power. When set to Best Power, there is a chance that some of your open applications may drastically stop responding and may lead to the whole system to stop responding as well. For me, choose the Best Performance instead. The whole system runs smooth without hangs and delays on running and opening/closing applications when set to Best Performance.
4. Battery life is not a big issue. I played mp3 for 8 straight hours with backlight off and still it has more power to consume. Re-charging using a computer took me 6 hours to fully charge the battery. 2% of the battery life were consumed when not in used overnight. There are lots of things to do and change to maximize the use of your battery to make it last longer.
5. Surfing using a WIFI is likely more faster compared to XDA2i. The HSDPA function is too good to be true. Unlike an ordinary phone that connects thru 3G, HSDPA is a lot faster, I can even get as much as 1.2mbps bandwidth.
6. Light weight and small. Easy to fit in my pocket.
7. I just dont like the idea of using Mini SD. duh!!! I need to plug an adaptor first before I can transfer files to my mini sd.
8. GPS Settings is there.. I dont know if this work.
