GOOD:Good build and appearance, well-designed QWERTY keyboard, easy to use UI with good readability, good battery life, indian language characters on keyboard, no text input issue in Java apps (unlike many competitors), decent web browsing

BAD:Earpiece max volume could have been higher, mediocre camera, cannot minimize all apps (let alone multi-task), advertised push mail feature didn't work for us most of the time, 3rd party apps can't use Wi-fi (only GPRS)

VERDICT:This affordable QWERTY phone is a better buy than Indo-Chinese brands

In the BAD attribute the comment "3rd party apps can't use Wi-fi (only GPRS)" isnt true. Ive checked it and b4 opening the program it will ask for which option to use WLAN or GPRS or Do Not Ask. All you have to do is go to web settings and change it to "personal config". Thereby I request u to delete the attribute as it may lead people wrongly.

Hi Cat, As per ur query I have answer for that and you should not save same contact twice in your mobile. If you save signle contact twice you will not see the caller with name but you will see only number.
