Sony Ericsson Z600 Review
Michael has posted his review of the Z600:

Quote:
Sony Ericsson has done a great job in making sure that the new Z600 didn't contain the same flaws as the disappointing T610. This handset is so good, I think I'll make it my own.
Read the review here.

Fantasic
I've had this handset for a few days now and I think it's fantastic, despite the bulk. The screen is much improved, the exterior display is wonderfully simple, and the exchangable covers are great. Also, despite what Michael's review said, I have found the Bluetooth system to be more reliable. My T610 was always dropping the connection with my car handsfree system. The Z600 has been rock solid. I just wish it was thinner!

question?
Great review Michael!


1. I noticed from your pic in the review that you were using a t-mobile account (SIM). Some people that have used the phone, who also have t-mobile in the US, are saying that the T-Zones service is not functional on the phone. A possible software problem?

2. Has anyone tried "pairing" the phone with a bluetooth enabled Pocket PC? Any issues, problems, etc?

I don't use T-Zones, so I can't comment on any problems.

I did pair it with my iPAQ 3870 without a problem, though.

Yes, T-Zones does not work!
JMBURT...I use T-Moblie with my Z600 and T-Zones comes up as a blank page! I'm glad you mentioned this becuase I thought I had done something wrong. Everything else works, but T-Zones has some very useful content so I'm not happy!

Michael, can you recommend any way to fix this problem? Any known incompatibilities? My T610 worked without a problem.

T-Zones does not work, no way around that... at least at this point. I also am a little ticked since i use it a lot when travelling, for flight, times and gate info.

I am however able to connect it to my mac and use it as a wireless device to get email.

T-Zones
Do you think this is a Sony Ericsson problem or a formatting problem with T-Mobile's page?

Not true
Not true...I've navigated ESPN's WAP page no problem, it just looks different than it did on the T610...odd spacing on some pages.
