I have had this phone for two months. It sucks but I cant compare it to other touch phones because I have never had one before. You cannot be on it without opening up at least two programs or windows while talking on it because your ear hits all the buttons. The camera button is right where a typical right handed person would put their hands to talk on the phone, so you constantly are tunring on the camera and taking pictures of your hands. Hands down the most frustrating piece of electonics Ive ever owned.

I’ve had my handset for one week, previously i tried the Samsung saga which i found disappointing due to a small screen and low pixel count. The 6900 is much better than the saga for web access and viewing/editing office documents. I also find the 6900 more responsive than the saga but not nearly as quick as I-phone.
I like the small size and Verizons 3G network speed, these were some of my criteria for buying a smartphone. This was purchased for my job where i need access to email and internet everywhere i go, it meets these qualifications easily. Since I plan to carry the phone with me i wanted a few feature to make my life better such as: steaming audio and video. It does a great job with streaming audio if attached to a windows stream, forget about non windows streams. streaming video capabilities are limited to windows streams only, no flash support which means no youtube or online NBC shows.
I contacted Verizon regarding flash, they replied they didn’t support 3rd party software, wouldn’t offer anything more. I found an upgrade to windows mobile 6.1 but no improvements. Adobe states no flash support after W.M. 5 but they are working with MS.
I signed a one year agreement, at the end of the year i plan to look at linux based handsets with any 3G provider.

this phone does what I need it to do. Windows mobile 6 can be upgraded to 6.1. No problems with slow speeds. I haven’t hit any buttons with my cheek while i was calling anyone either. It looks very nice also. The camera and video are nice quality and I love the preloaded games of solitaire and etc. No regrets.

I have had this phone for over a year and have had problems with it since I got it. Unfortunately, it is a work phone, so I am stuck with it until I can get an upgrade in 6 months. The first problem is that you can not talk on the phone without opening several other programs because the screen does not lock when on a phone call. In order to talk and not accidently hang up on someone or open another program, you have to push the top button in order to turn the screen off. Second, my caller ID has not been working from the get go. It will cut off the person’s name and half of the phone number when it shows up on the screen. Sometimes it works, but I would say 85% of the time, the caller ID is cut off. And last, the screen is slowing starting to stop working. In the top corners, the screen does not work any longer. This is a problem considering you have to tap the “x” at the top right corner in order to close a program. I have to press extremely hard on the screen for it to work in the corners. It has slowly gotten worse over the last couple of months.
The camera on the phone is pretty good, but there is not flash. It’s fairly fast compared to my Treo I had before….but those are the only positives about the phone.
I would not buy this phone. It is not worth the money….but I actually think its much cheaper now than when it first came out.

I love this phone, Great Service, If you use outlook and like a PDA you will like this phone. All your contacts in outlook load easy to the phone. The Camera is good but no flash which is fine for most times you would use a phone camera anyway. All in all this is a great phone/PDA snd I would bay another.
