If I want to blu tooth stuff to my dangleberry I have to go into the media section also and click on receive by blu tooth

Only just worked out how to text a phone from my address book

Somw stuff is just too complicated on it imo

Anyone find when loading website on the 9700 takes ages, even with full bars on 3G or wifi. If i compare it to my iphone 3G on the same network and signal strength the iphone loads almost straight away.

Nope, don't find that.

Mine can be slow round home when the signal drops weak as can't get 3g, but anywhere where I can, it's instant.

it depends on hot its configured, there are a number of different routes that the browser can take. normally on comany phones it'll go via your BES data connection and through your company's proxy server, this is often not the fastest.

consumer devices that are configured to go straight out would be fine

Had numerous blackberry's and they are fantastic.

Currently using a Palm Pre and although it doesn't have the apps, its a fantastic phone. Keypad could be better.

Iphone 4 now trumps it though as they've introduced multi-tasking.

Yeah, iOS4 is out the same day. So the two phones will have the same OS.
