okikiola sheriff Hi.
I just need one of this product to now how good it is. thanks, i got to heere from you soon.

ug The camera is mediocre. 1.3 mp is not that great. To get decent pictures, you need 4 mp or higher. I don't understand why these jackass companies keep coming out with 1.3 mp crap when we all know that samsung has announced 7 and 8 mp camera phones. WTF, put those goddam cameras (or at least a lousy 4mp unit) in your phones, for crying out loud!

Each year I buy an expensive phone and it is not quite up to the hype. The manufacturers need to stop trying to make these marginally improved phones, and develop a long term plan for the technologies they are going to have. Then they need to fill out their products with mature, high quality versions of these technologies.

I am done throwing money away at this crap and I am done ranting.

lxz just got the SP5m from belcompany.nl and it certainly has wifi onboard.

<unknown> imate sp5 has much more elegant design in my opinion. no unneccessary buttons, all good and practical layout. too bad its out of stock in most shops

Soul Guy Umm Guys, I just nipped to Dubai last week and found it there without even looking!! Liked it, Bought it & now enjoying it.
Someone asked about the speaker and it is fantastic (I say this coming from a K750) which had a very poor ear piece!!
Screen is really nice!! So bright and easy to read! and the new Windows software is a breaze, much better than the iMate SP3. The phone it self does feel heavy (Heavier than the K750) but still more solid and quality than anything. Speaker phone is really nice & loud and it def has WiFi. Was connecting to every hot spot in Dubai only to find them requiring a Log in name and pass word!!
Anyways, Price there (Dubai) was 1,899 Dirhams which is about 280 pounds!!
Hope this helps!!

gadgetreeeeeeeeeeeee great sp with w 5.0
camera is not too good not too bad so so
software not avilable freely in pakistan

ADIL I have been using it for more than a month. And am in love with it. No doubts, it is not perfect, but then i have yet to see a perfect phone.

For locking the key pad, you need to press the end button for a few seconds, and the keypad will lock.

To use MP3 as ringtones, place your mp3 or wav files in the SOUNDS folder, which you will find in APPLICATION DATA folder on the root.

Maybe i am lucky, but my phone never required a reboot in the last whole one month, though i use GPRS a lot. The battery is reasonable but not poor, as with bluetooth, wifi and a brilliant display, one should not expect a battery to last very long. The comfort for me is that i can always connect it with my PC usb, and it charges alongwith.

Hope the comments will be a help.

<unknown> Bought the imate SP5M a month ago. Pathetic reception (phone hangs costantly- i have to re boot it each time). Customer service / after sales service is quite slow and simply incompetent.
Overall I would not advise any potential purchaser to buy this phone. Its simply not worth it.
