I can't believe how incredibly stupid I was to rush off and get the 6315 without bothering to take a few minutes and check out sites like this one first!

This would be a fantastic product if it worked, but instead, for me, it is like the exact opposite of Lipitor. The more you use this phone and the more you attempt to talk to the unhelpful people at T-Mobile customer service the higher your blood pressure goes.

On my upcoming trip to Asia I'm going to a cell phone mall with 100 cell phone stores, all unlocked GSM. It is going to take a LOT of will power to not buy another PDA!

I've had it for the pass few months. Had problems until I downloaded the upgrade. I only use the pc and email features. Although it's not perfect, I love the mobility.

I have had mine since the first week they were available. Things started off rocky, but I chaulked that up to one of the problems with being an early adopter. I absolutely love the battery life (I'm not a real power user, so I could deal with the slower processor in exchange for the extended battery life). A lot of issues that others were experiencing, I was spared. I seemed to have gotten a good unit the first time around. I don't have to do a soft reset very often (but then, I don't have very many apps loaded). My biggest woe was the bluetooth. I started out using the Jabra BT250, which I had used with both my Nokia 3620 and my SE T610 without problems. The H6315 was a different matter altogether. The connnection would lock up for no apparent reason. Sometimes, I would answer the call, and sometimes I wouldn't. There seemed to be no rhyme or reason to this. Then, on the rare occassion that I could answer a call, the caller complained that I sounded very far away. I also could not talk if there was any background noise (wind or music). I was at the end of my rope because being able to use a bluetooth headset is important to me. I then read a review of the newest offering from Logitech. It was tested with the 6315 with good results, so I took the plunge (I figured after the cost ot the 6315, what was another $40 if it worked). It worked beautifully, so now I'm happier with my 6315 than ever before.

I have one and I am pleased with it about 50% of the time. The other half I keep thinking it sucks.

Things I hate about it:
- It calls people on my contact list by it self from my pocket. (this is semi fixable)
- email works about 70% of the time as there a great deal of network outages, and the email application crashes constantly.
- It doesn't see the SD card sometimes. Reseting 3 or 4 times usually fixes this.

I can assure you that the pocket pc's I have owned have only required a soft reset every week or month, while my palm device (yes, I owned a handspring with addon packs) required a reset constantly. Considering how old the device is I woulden't be so sure the new palms would be any different because of their new capabilitys.
I disagree, at least in spirit. I owned three Palm devices (Handspring Deluxe, HandEra 330, Tungsten T2) and made them do things they just weren't supposed to do. I challenge ANYONE to find something PPC can do that Palm can't. Granted, because of the OS, some things have to go through a process, like using Quickoffice or DocsToGo to read/write native MS Office Docs, but y'know, MobileDB for Palm is easier than any PPC database option.

For me, it was a convoluted decision. I knew I had to have a smartphone because I was tired of having phone numbers on my cell, email addresses in Outlook Express, & regular addresses, email, & phone in my Palm. I used Beyond Contacts to make my Palm sync with & work like Outlook, but my cell was still separate. I could've gone with the Treo 600, but I like reading ebooks & that screen's too darned small. I could've bought the Treo 650, but I didnt feel like spending $700 for an unlocked one so I could continue using the T-Mobile account I've had for years (since before Voicestream). I've used Blackberry and it's useless for anything other than email. If I'd really wanted to switch services, I'd have gotten something like an SX-66, but the main reason I went with the 6315 was the fact that is was, and still is (I think) the ONLY smartphone that has Bluetooth & WiFi.

The camera is crappy, but I don't care. It's handy when you're not carrying a real camera. The MP3 & video playback is great. The email push works on all my varied accounts. There are hundreds of freeware programs that are decent (not as many as palm, but oh well). As for the speed dial, etc, I have Voice Commander that dials for me, so I don't even use speed dial. Hell, I don't even look up contacts anymore. I just say "Show John Smith."

I use it at home, at work, and on the road. If there's a Taco Bell handy, I can surf on WiFi. If not, my email is always there. I have over 3,000 ebooks and I'm never without something to pass the time.

Now, all I need is the Rhinoskin aluminum hardcase...
