What is thin phone? Is is a software package? I thought about Fonesynch, but according to their web site it doesn't support the Neopoint. I also looked at a PDQ phone, by the way. It is much, much bigger and heavier, and felt clunky, somewhat like a brick. The Neopoint is smaller and lighter than previous phones I have used, and is handy and easy to use, as well as cool to look at. Even data entry isn't bad, thanks to T9 mode. With T9 you hit the number key with the letter on it only once, and it guesses what word you want from its apparently quite sizeable dictionary. Also if you use a word once, it is added the dictionary and is recognized the next time you use it. I suspect that the PDQ is more powerful, but the Neopoint does all I could ask for - except synch to a computer, which is why I bought it. I have a lot of info in my computer I'd like in my phone, and I don't want to enter it all by hand into the phone. Carl
