The new samsung sgh i607 is a promising thin unit that is sure to out do the Q and will compete head to head with the 8800. RIM better watch the competition and take note. They have had the market on email enabled phones and competition is getting stiff, ie the new Nokia e62 that some say is the best phone on the market today. I actually like the windows mobile software and will buy the unit that works the best for me. I will say that I am glad I didnt get an 8100 and am willing to wait for something that I won't regret purchasing.


Dont disagree with everything you've said Biscuit but...have you tried an E62. Yikes. It's s l o o o ooooooowww.
