TV channels are free on contract. Great DAB radio. Competent Windows smartphone.
Reception is temperamental. Poor camera. No Wi-Fi or 3G connectivity.

Abstract: It does have a selection of other features too though: a Windows Mobile OS, MicroSD memory card slot, media player, 1.3 megapixel camera and a decent battery life that should give a good couple of hours of viewing time.
Abstract: There are not many things left that a mobile phone cannot do however this is the first I know that you can watch live TV on, I mean live and not a link via who knows where.
