What's the text input like on the orbit?

same as a pda, little keyboard on the bottom of the screen & you use the stulus for input.

alternative is to get a hold of extra software, so called soft keyboards..

had my orbit for a while now & can honestly say its the best solution Ive found yet, integrated GPS is brilliant, so much less hassle than my old bluetooth solution, single cable now to charge everything & screen is a good size. Battery life is surprisingly good as well (used various PDA's, N80 etc in the past)

In what way is it less hastle than the bluetooth GPS? Was looking at N73+Module until I heard about this orbit phone?

no BT pairing required
no BT dropouts (pain with the N80)
Only needs one charger cable (phones & gps units dont always have the same socket)
no wondering if the gps unit is charged
no forgetting to pick up the gps unit or charger cable etc
less bits to carry around
If I'm getting a lift I have gps with me (this has been well handy, didn't even think about it before)

etc etc..
 
All very valid sounding benefits, I'd definitely see myself getting caught out with no module when needing it the most.
Thanks :)

How's the camera? I've currrently got my SE K750i with 2MP, those pics are pretty decent for the pixelage. Have you seen pics from it to compare?
