Pros:Small size but packed with useful functions.
Cons:Can't edit a name or number without erasing.

I bought this phone for it size and style. What I didn't expect was a planner, a calculator, a digital recorder, and more. Although, they still haven't gotten to the point where the cursor can move backwards without erasing, it is an awesome little gadget.

It won't replace your Palm PDA. It will save you when you don't have a notepad to remember an appointment or phone number. If you have time you can type in the name, number, date, etc., or just speak into the digital recorder.

The only problems I had with it were trying to edit and using the voice activated dialing. Although, I haven't seen a phone yet that you can use the cursor to move to the front of a line and insert a number or letter, I think this is sloppy.

I will overlook these minor problems, mostly because it blows away my last phone. This is one for the masses.
