Have this phone for 7 months
1) On screen via handwritting recognition or onscreen keypad - there is no seperate keypad like on sony p910
2) No
3) yes, comes with sync software, also by bluetooth or can use memory card (transflash, 256mb costs about 30 quid) in card reader
4) Has built in opera web browser which I think renders web pages quite well - however on three internet access is not supported, but some people surf through the pc cable/bluetooth connection if pc is connected to web but I don't know why people want to do this. Can also be used as a modem for laptop
5) Yes
6) More real tones - ie mp3s, wavs etc - has some of the best (stereo) speakers on any phone, I sometimes use it as a portable mp3/video player without headphones.

Phone locked to 3, can only be cable unlocke d(eg at local market stall) for about 20 quid. There is non-three frimware available which makes phone more useable but does not unlock it.

My main gripe is battery life - 2 days if you don't use it too much, otherwise 1.
