My new mobile phone is an Orange SPV M600

Somehow I managed to get of an Orange SPV M600, after someone else cancelled an upgrade at the company that supplied me. My number hasn't switched over yet, so I've satisfied myself by getting wifi working and my exchange contacts, tasks and emails sychronised.

First learning point - entering a wpa-psk key into a pda device to get connected up is a pain. It took me all day and four attempts at entering the key to get it right. I almost comtemplated comprimising my home network security, but it worked in the end, and also with 802.11g.

I'm really chuffed, and looking forward to getting more into the pda / GTD thing with it.

I wonder how good it is at making phone calls ? :)

It can make phone calls, too? Ah, the wonders of the steam age!

Lol aye. Now that I'm on my fourth spv, I'm a tad cynical about their performance as a phone. Coming from an excellent Nokia which was really hard to fault, having to patch a phone's firmware for someone to hear you during a call was unacceptable.

So far though, this phone is the best yet in terms of sound quality. Sadly though, the lack of proper buttons for making calls is pretty poor.
