Hello,

I'm a not-too-proud owner of the XDAIIs. After the second replacement I'm considering jacking it in and getting the HTC Robbie (Orange c550/Qtek 8200). The QVGA screen is really the selling point for me.

A few questions for those of you that have gone from a PDA to a Smartphone...

1) What am I going to miss?

2) What am I going to gain?

3) Does anyone have this device? If so Pros and Cons?

4) Is this the best device released/soon to be released?

Any help would be appriciated!

Hi

I own a SPV C550 (and I owned every SPV before)

The device is definitly the best Smartphone available, the new screen is really absolut fantastic! The only problem is that some applications are not working correctly due to the new resolution - but that will be a matter of time until new updates are coming...

What you will miss is the touchscreen, but therefor you gain the possibility to use it with one hand!

Go for it, you will love it!

Thanks for the advice Sven!

Any ideas where I can pick one of these babies up? I'm an O2 UK customer with about 4 months left on my contract so I need one that's SIM FREE if possible!

Anyone else have this device?
