Thinking of upgrading my phone to one of these? Anyone got any thoughts or comments. Just read on ebay that the GPS may not work if its not unlocked (is this true)?
cheers

I got one of these.

It is ok, the GPS has always worked fine when I needed a bit of direction while abroad.

The software is terrible, I have had to do several resets as it has stalled on me and keeps crashing.

Would never go back to SE after this. It makes nokias look almost reasonable.

No it seems it is a usual SE problem, a few friends have it on other models too.

When you've needed it abroad? How long have you had it, I thought it had only been out a couple of weeks!

I was going to hold out for one of these but got the C902 instead of waiting, after a software update it's been perfect ever since.

Been abroad twice since having it.

Yeah had it a few weeks possibly 3 or 4.
