Good Buy

Was looking for something with wireless and satelite navigation. It was quite an all in one package. Have had to reset it a couple of times. In all a good buy.

Siemens

I got four of these phones for the office, and they work great. I would say that I am very much satisfy with the features this gadget has.
However, less than tree month of use, and one of the phones' battery went bad, and it is almost impossible to find where to buy another replacement battery. Cingular and Siemens customer support haven't been great.
In addition, one of the phone bluthooth system stop working within the first four weeks of use. Again, tech support ask you to take the unit to the store, and the stor ask you to contact the manufacturesr.
Frustrating.

More than I thought I was getting

I just received the phone via the telephone sales for Cingular. The phone is not in any stores, nor is it available online. 866-Cingular

This phone has it all. Now, if they could all work perfectly.

Cons: Bluetooth using 1.0 stack. Buggy. Looking for an update (if anyone knows how to get 1.1, please Email)

Wireless - Works phenominally when connecting to a netowrk with a single WAP. I have 3 WAPs in my house, and it seems to get confused when I get near different ones.

Pros: For you network geeks out there, I was happily surprised with 2 features I did not know of:
1. Network browsing: When connected to a network (i.e. WiFi), I can browse my network, just as if from a pc, i.e. using IE, open \\NetworkName\Share. However, one caveat is that you can't open music files from the shared folder. However, I installed PocketLAN which has a mount type feature, then I can play directly.
2. Remote Desktop - Works great. Lots of scrolling from the smaller screen, however is great to contact remote machines to launch scripts.

The display is beautiful. I like the qwerty keyboard, a bit small, but it is very functional.

Well worth the $500.
