I have been using the HTC Mteor for six months...
>> Poor battery life relative to Nokia N73 (same price range in South Africa)
>> Back cover of phone housing battery keeps coming off
>> Phone Ringer and Sound intermittently mutes and stays silent..user unable to adjust or activate sound ...I use my phone as a working tool and this loss of ringer and sound results in lost income for me because of missed calls
>> This is a good phone as a working tool when it works, but given the choice, I would rather go for a Samsung (first choice) or Nokia E-Series (Business Phones)
>> I am 48 years old, a Professional amongst the previous phones I owned
>> ..Samsung D500 (BEST - Reliable and user friendly)
>> ..Panasonic GD87 (the BEST EVER PHONE) good design (clampshell) ..good battery life ...adequately equipped ..overall package makes it such a good choice ...unfortunately no new or improved units released from Panasonic
>> ..Nokia 2100i // 3310 // 5100 // these are good phones sames as Toyota Cars (Reliable, but no fireworks, no spark or uumphh)
>> ..Motorola V-Series ...reliable, but not well spec'd
>> ..Bosch ...same as Motorola, relaible but under spec;d
THIS IS AN EXCELLENT POCKET COMPUTER U DONT NEED TO CARRY LARGE SIZE HEAVY NOTE BOOKS WHILE U TRAVEL,U WILL FORGET EVERY PHONE WHEN U BUY I-MATE SPJAS
