Hi mobeyone,

this is no B&O bashing thread. This is about strengths and weak points of our favorite brand. My belief in B&O loudspeakers and AV systems is still great. I'd never change my BC2, BV4 setup with any high-end solution of another brand. This is the field where B&O has a lot of reputation. High-Value workmanship especially with aluminum and glass and system integration is B&O's excellence.

So, my expectations from B&O concerning a cell phone would be as follows:

- A case made of single piece polished aluminum (like the Beo1 remote control)

- Scratch resistant mineral glass display (like Nokia 8800)

- High quality heavy duty metal or vulcanite keys (like Vertu)

- Easy Win AND (!) Mac synchronization

- Optional use as a simple B&O remote (Integration)

- And a feature that differs the B&O mobile phone from others (GPS theft tracking or emergency call service, concierge service ?) 

hmmn... got a serene for my girlfriend when they first came out and was amazed at how basic they are (wrt software and spec)- I guess i say that as a htc convert.

Also suprised at finding a dead pixel- quality control??? Didn't bother her enough to replace the unit though.

Can't understand the whole iphone adoration.

I have a love hate relationship with my htc x7500 (most of the hate stems from the flaws in the windows ce plafrom). In most respects it is superior to the iphone. I do wish it had multitouch though....
