My E100 has to be charged each and every night. Worth it tho, what a gadget.

I spoke to Orange two weeks ago about this. They said around the 10th Nov, and my contract on my E100 runs out on the 17th, so for me.

Thumbs up

Looking forward to it now

The charging thing is not a problem for me really, I have my camera, mouse etc setup to charge overnight, every night so adding a phone wont cause problems.

Only problem I do have is wall plugs. Running out at a rate of knots now

Mark, the E200 has Bluetooth and now an integrated camera.

For me its a nice tool. I wanted a PDA just for email and calendar and I wanted a new mobile. The new SPV combines all the things I want from both items, and for only £130 and £25 a month contract.

have you checked out the P900? I compare both very carefully if I was in your shoes!

Looks good, and the touch screen is a bonus, but whats Symbian OS???

I only need it for syncing with Outlook really - will the Symbian OS do this without pain?

Any ideas on cost?

Mark, the E200 has Bluetooth
So it does - I do beg your pardon.

Symbian is v.good lots of flexibility. It runs the P800 I've got at the moment and the Outlook integration is spot-on!

Cheers

1.61 ROM for the SPV and E100 is due soon.

Fixes the MSN Messenger problem, SMS counter and a few speed issues.
