Good Points

I took back my Revo - The MC218 is a better size, half decent backlight and a bigger display. The new price is way down on what I paid. It synchs with Outlook calender (great for tracking all my daily pc fixes) I havnt bothered with mobile internet as it is still too expensive. Nicads last ages.


Bad Points

Dont drop it - get a clam shell case.


General Comments

I love this beasty. It is instant on and the display is pretty good - not in the Ipaq league, but the power consumption is low so you go for a week on a set of 4 AA nicads. The only annoying thing about the Ericsson MC218 is that the stylus sometimes pops out on its own - its held by a wire.
I just bought a Handspring for my son, but I know I have a better PDA with a decent little keyboard as well.
Speed isnt everything - EPOC is small and fast - I even enjoy my favourite Speecy game Lase Squad under a Z80 emulator. The mobile GPS system looks interesting.
