I have heard that the Tocco drops calls alot, puts me off.

That narrows it down to the C902i or the iphone, anybody got a C902i - is it any good?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Do not any of you ever consider buying a HTC phone, they are tripe. The UI is atrocious, the software prone to freezing/being very slow but then it catches up. ie you'll hit a button, nothing happens, so you hit it again, othing happens, so you hit it again and then it flicks through 3 screens. Dire.

I may or may not work for a large Telco testing these damn things.
having had a HTC Typhoon, Tornado, Wizard, Touch and currently a Diamond... and before them a Motorola MPx200 - i havent had any problems with the UI, nor do i find it freezing/lagging or crashing... and with the Diamond, this is the first time i've gone to the trouble of installing a new ROM on the phone.
If they were crap i wouldnt have kept getting em. smile

(the bit with the Diamond having a fixed 4gb internal storeage is a downside... and i liked having the flash card slot, because i tended to listen to music on the phone, then when in the car, take the flash card out, and put it in the car stereo.)

My Touch Dual was (is) stable. But an abortion of a UI thats chronically inconsistent, not well designed, not particularly suitable for a mobile device. Taking the Windows UI over to a mobile? Which idiot at Microsoft thought up that one?

But having said that, I'm keeping it for TomTom, which works massively better than it ever did on my N73.

Ive heard the tocco drops alot of its calls and also the batterylife isn't great. Do you have one? if so, whats the music player and camera like? can you visit any web page that you could on a pc?

agree on the UI which is why i use spb shell which is far far superior and works very well.
