Installed this on a Sony Ericsson W810i; it looks great, but does not
connect. Maybe my O2 gprs is the problem. Will keep trying, as this
would be a good stopgap until I decide what gadget to get.

Now I have looked at a few things, I have decided I also really really
need something with wifi, that will run a SIP client, etc, etc...
