Got the phone had it for 3 days and think it is great. Co-Pilot works a treat and i love the display sharper than my mini s being a TFT.

Drawbacks are the micro SD being under the sim so go for as large amount of memory as you can afford.

9/10 from me.

        Please could someone advise on whether it is ok to install the co-pilot software onto an sd card as my system memory is pretty full already, co-pilot advise installing to the device, can this be changed or will the program fail to operate Thanks

          Just to let a lot of you guys know, There is NO sat nav build into this phone already. You have to get it as an extra


          On another note, I have been selling data phones for some time and I personally like this phone over all the rest, I think the design is brill and its ease of use.

          10/10

                    Ordered mine yesterday got the Phone for £50 and the GPS software for free on a 12 month contract.

                    Can't wait to get it although will be frustrated initially as i am so used to the keyboard on my MiniS.

                    Anything i should download once i have set it up all generally all still ok out of the box?

                    :-)

                      I got a 12 month contract with no GPS software as no way was I signing up for 18 months. I dont need co-pilot as you can get your own gps software quite easily.

                        Update on the software for this phone - Carphone Warehouse DO NOT send the phone with any GPS software - you have to purchase it additionally. Seems a bit silly as they could easily add it with afecting their costs too much. I'm now on an 18 month contract which is fine for me but I can't see what they are acheiving by this silly rule. Make sure you don't get caught out on this - if you need the software then make sure you buy it straight away - it is about £70-ish...

                          Just got this from O2 - it doesn't appear to have any preloaded GPS software and no card is supplied to enable TomTom. Have I missed something? Do I need to buy this separately? I got this phone from Carphone Warehouse on the O2 network... perhaps Carphone Warehouse take this out...

                                  I dont use the email service but I think u need to get some software to use the push technology on something other than outlook. With hotmail I know the Hotmail + account allows you to recieve your emails via outlook.

                                  I think the palm data can be transferred but you need to download styletap. This allows WM5 devices to use Palm software.

                                    I am very keen to get hold of this phone. I am aware that it comes with 'direct push technology'. Can I set the phone to notify me when I receive emails in my Yahoo / Gmail / hotmail account or does the direct push technology only work for emails received in Microsoft Outlook?

                                    Appreciate if someone can clarify this. Thanks!

                                      Can I transfer data from my Palm Tungsten T3/Palm Desktop to the XDA Orbit I am just about to buy.

                                      Thanks, Mick

                                        I have Destinator 6 and Tom Tom 6 on my orbit. Tom Tom 6 is very very good.

                                        email me and I can give you links on where to find these.
