Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

First of all, I think everyone who complains about this device not doing everything pefectly need to realize that there is no device that does everything top of the line. This device is going to appeal to folks who have a pocket PC and Cell, and wish to integrate the two. I fit this demographic, and I am very happy with it. If you have never owned a pocket pc then I can understand why you would be complaining, pocket PC's are menu based, and the phone works like a PDA, so it's logical that it would take a little bit more work than it does to send a message on the sidekick. The sidekick is primarily made to send message duh! Also, EVERYONE that has ever owned a pocket PC knows that when you hit that X to close a program it doesn't release it from memory. All you do is go to the start > settings > memory > running programs > and hit stop all that frees up the memory that is being used. EVERY pocket pc ever made has been like that, that's where your lag is coming from. There is a program called handy task I think, it sits in the start bar and you hit it to close any resident memory apps you would like. Problem solved, if you can't deal with that then go back to another device and never buy a windows mobile or pocket PC, because it doesn't seem like that is going to change. I purchased a 2 gig mini SD Card, and I loaded my Handmark Monopoly for Pocket PC onto the device and it runs flawlessly. I have also used DVD to Pocket PC to shrink movies down, I watched them on the MDA without any issues. I would recommend that you invest in a decent sized mini SD card (1 gig on ecost for $49.99), and store all of your programs and files on the card, you won't have any lag except when you slide open the keyboard and that's to be expected to an extent. Bye, Bye Naysayers!!!!
