I got this the day after it came out and was quite excited about this.
After setting it all up with the o2 Calendar. After some debating ive decided that this is one gadget that I have to return. The touch screen is a nightmare!. It works when it seems to feel like it and sometimes has a mind of its own. When trying to click on some of the news items it decides to open up the one below, and try as i might I cant seem to open up some of them. I was told in the shop that you did not need an o2 phone for it to send you reminder messages. Well guess what?. It turns out you do. It would of been nice for it to have the option for it to be wall mounted but it doesn't have this. Also when browsing your calendar its very slow making the whole experience very annoying.
All in all I would give this product 4/10. But its still going back!!

took it back the other day and the o2 people said they have had quite a few come back due to being very slow. think this need a few software updates to iron everything out.

would be much better bit of kit if it had a different OS! been trying to find someone thats managed to do it but from what I can make it its only a mater of time as someone is offering £1000 for the first person that does it!!! www.hackthejoggler.com
Lets hope the result is good because I would love to get mine to be on a different OS... :)
