Recommend to a friend? Yes "This is a wonderful phone. It is slick in operation and very well built. Early problems when using wi-fi, which caused occasional lock-ups, were cured with the long anticipated Dell firmware release. Would definitely get this again if I lost or damaged it etc."

Recommend to a friend? No ""This is the most anticipated phone." So much so i wonder how many people are going to give up waiting for this and jump to the HTC 7 pro. This was supposed to be release October, then mid Nov, then mid Dec, end Dec, begining Jan, begining Feb, mid Fed, early March, now Mid March. Get it together Dell, if you want a crack a this market stop delaying your product. I personally keep looking at the 7 Pro, as i hate my iphone and only got it as a stop gap, which i should have only had for a couple of days, whats going on. get up and speak to the Service providers, get a deal worked out and get the phone to market. not sure i'm willing to wait another 5 months! Windows Mobile 7 is a great product and it needs a fantastic device like this to give it a push in the right direction, but delays are not helping at all!! I Love windows 7 and i'm sure the product is great, but not sure i could say to a friend, this phone will be great, i've only been waiting for 5 months, buts its ok, it'll be about mid March! it is for this reason i have given the 3 stars and not recomended it!! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "
