Having a windows based is a smart choice
You can got for other nokia phones in this range also,
But having a windows based has its pros and cons
Pros:
Most of the software you download, including the free ones you get from getjar.com work on your mobile
get a gprs connection and you can use msn messenger fully at a cheaper rate, it takes the least downloads and enjoy it as free messaging, just paying for gprs which is cheap
come to think of it, if everyone gets gprs and have msn messenger on mobile, there would be no need of messaging and would be cheaper
though there are wap sites like wap.e-messenger.net which let you access msn messenger from mobile, they are slow and take more download as they have to download the page, but msn messenger on the imate just takes the text the people are sending to you which is small
the 2 mega pixel camera, makes a camera feel worth it, great pics as good as digital cameras, add a 512 memory card, and record your video in mp4 version, yes u can record it as 3gp too but why when u have a clearer superior quality mp4 to go with
Syncing it with your PC could never be easier using microsoft active sync , u can sync your contacts, your calender you emails, tasks, favcorites, music , everythin u like by just a click,
browse through my computer like an external drive
big screen, great pixels, makes you happy everytime you see your mobile phone, easy to use
9.bluetooh, infra red, wifi (great wifi reception)
windows media player, great music quality
you can even get skype on this smartphone ;)
cons
- expensive, but compared to a nokia phone in the same range this is better
2.hard to think of
- 2G device, not 3G
4.no fm radio
