Where as the form factor is awesome, as is the OS and all the functions that go along with it, the phone misses calls constantly. Moreover, it does not alert you to that effect. No "missed calls" no updates to new voicemails, until you reboot, which needs to happen about 4-5 times a day.

I feel though, that a few other downsides should be mentioned.. Firstly, IR is gone, Bluetooth is only v1.2 (as oppossed to v2.0), and the battery is smaller (750mva) as opposed to phones like the Qtek 8310 (or the I-mate SP5), which boosted a 1050mva Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29295620.post-1150263323407416712006-06-14T00:35:00.000-05:002006-06-14T00:35:00.000-05:00Another thing - found the manual for the QTek vers...Another thing - found the manual for the QTek version of the Dopod online at http://www.myqtek.com/europe/products/8500/manuals.aspx - you may want to post that as a link for anyone interested in the phone.
