I had this brick too for only one week, the shortest period I reviewed a phone. I was tired of it already! (I'm a dutch Windows Mobile reviewer at NieuweMobiel.NL)

No bluetooth, unuseable keypad, no camera, brick-sized, very ugly.. What where they thinking?

I have a Voq and just bought a PDA2K. To be honest I think the Voq keyboard is easier to use. The way it bifolds gives it a better geometric relationship with your hands. Also the Voq has built in number keys. With the PDA2K I have to "Fn" to get numbers and go back and forth. Maybe some other PDA has a better keypad than the PDA2K. Anyway aren't these people reviewing the Voq a little late. it has been out for awhile now.

It seems that the review has been done by someone who is short the SWIR stock. The commentary is totally unfounded and is useless in terms of whether one should purchase the phone. I own one and I give it a FIVE STAR rating! I would not trade the Voq for any other!

I too have had the luxury of using a Voq phone for the past month. I found the keyboard a tad clumsy at first but that was because I was trying to use one thumb to type on the whole keyboard. Then I realized I had TWO thumbs!! Typing has been a breeze and the hinge doesn't get in the way. I can go way faster than anyone with a one-thumb keyboard.

Now after a few weeks, I love the phone. Just gotta make sure you add a SD card to hold all the games you put on it.
