Review: HTC SMT-5800

I just discovered this little piece of awesomeness, and was planning to upgrade to it this month. what happened, Verizon? why was it only given a year's life?

actually about two months ago i saw it at the verizon store, but now everyone at verizon acts like this never existed, whats going on?

Does the SMT5800 Support an 8GB microSD Card? I can't Find it in the User manual.

I recently read that this phone (for Verizon) cant run AOL or Yahoo IM...Is that true? Also, has anyone used Slingbox w/ this phone?

I have a Q and have the oportunity to get a 5800 through Verizon ?? good move or stay with the Q.

does anybody know are u capable to get all of ur aim buddies in example like 150 or 200 buddies not like the other phones to get 30 buddies please resond soon would like to get the phone asap for verizon thxs

can you do replys with this phone when on howard forums, you cant with the Q9M

Does anyone know of any firmware upgrade that allows the user to delete or clear all of the messages without having to do it one at a time?

Thanks

Is there a version of Opera or any other app that you can use besides the default IE to explore the web on this device?

Anyone know where I can get a carrying case? All I've found are pouches. 😕

Does any one know if this phone will support ACT! Customer Management like the Palm or Treo?

I want to see my appointments for the whole day, not just the next one. 👿 My XV6700 did it without adding any 3rd Party applications like Agenda. Is this a Smartphone 'feature' because I can't figure out how to allow all my appointments to be displayed.

How can I get all my custom ringtones applied for text messaging, IM's, and all other alerts? I can use em for ringtones, but nothing else? Please help a dude out! 🤨

Ok this may be a stupid question but need to know. This phone looks really good. I used to carry a PDA and gave it up. With fire department pagers, phone and pda it was way too much to carry around.

Have been looking at the Voyager and my friends have the Env. I like both but if I can go with this phone, have a some sort of PDA with and stay on a regular phone plan we might have a winner for me.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

I know its a PDA and the whole purpose is to have it run the windows software so you can do all the business stuff, but I was wondering if anyone knew if it was possible to have it just run the regular Verizon software? I like the phone style, but am not really ready for the PDA operating system (I don't need all those fancy features yet, lol).

Can anyone tell me the main differences between this phone and the Moto Q9m, besides hte forma factor and Q9m accessing Vcast music.
Can either of these phones use VZ Navigator?
Can either of these phones use SDIO for wifi?

Does this phone have wi-fi for the verizon version?? - Keep getting conflicting opinions..

Help... - Thanks!!

Any thoughts on which one is better? I've got the 5800, but I am not crazy about it. I find it hard to use (but it could be b/c I am a newbie to smartphones). I like the i760 touchscreen, but heard some bad things about the i760. I can only exchange phones one more time and will be stuck with what I pick, so any advice is appreciated!

I want a smartphone mainly to push email, Internet access, use as a calendar, and open Word docs.

Also, is WiFi that big of a plus in the i760?

Thanks everyone!!

P.S. I am also posting in the i760 forum...
