Anyone using the 9300i?  Be interested to get feedback on reliability
etc.  Back in the day I had a 9210 which was very handy.  I can see wifi
on the 9300i being useful but I don't want to get one if its buggy and
crashes all the time.

Thanks

I have a 9500 which with SW 5.22 is rock solid, but since I got an
E60 I hardly use the 9500, except for satnav (TomTom is best in
widescreen) and on long journeys writing documents.

I recently acquired a 9500 with S/W 4.51. I had lots of trouble with
wifi reliability until I discovered the weird fix of disallowing
simultaneous bluetooth & wifi, after which wifi has become very
solid. Solid enough that I used a wifi web connection to google for a
free Zip Manager, downloaded & installed it. Then I used that to unzip
the zipped PuTTY I'd got from Sourceforge, which I'm now using to
write this over a wifi web connection to the tin newsreader on my
office Linux system.

All done on the 9500, no PCs were used in acquiring that software or
posting this message :-)

I'll get the 9500 upgraded to the latest version, but as it is I'm
very impressed by its very resourceful connectability and reliability.
Isn't the 9300i a later implementation with the later faster "g" wifi?

I'm currently connected to my own home wifi, but earlier this week I
explored the local cafes to find out which had a usable free open wifi
web access. I soon realised free wifi was so ubiquitous I was looking
for a local cafe which didn't. It turned out to be the local
Starbucks, who of course are trying to sell wifi access!

I had a 9300 for a little while and it was a great phone - no vibrating
alert though.

Thanks, is this the case on the "i"?
