Should I buy the A920?

Can you guys give me a tip???

I live in Denmark. Have seen the A920 in the shops and I am hooked. I reckon that it looks great. What I particularly like is:
* synch with outlook
* email on the go
* built in road maps for Denmark.

My question is this:
I am a heavy mobile phone user, I don't have a landline. I make and receive many phone calls on my nokia 3410 - which is just a standard mobile phone.

How realiable is the A920 as a phone?

Will I regret my purchase?

I would appreciate any comments.

Its generally a great phone, but lacks Bluetooth & IR (waiting for the long awaited patch).

If you want a phone that only allows you to speak for 80mins (If that...) then needs a charge then its for you.

Thanks for your reply.

Those 80 mins, is that on the one battery?

I can charge one battery while using the other one, I expect. So I should be able to keep the A920 alive so that I can make and receive calls?

A couple of other questions:

1) Can I make calls while the phone is in the docking station?

2) My computer has a broadband connection - can the A920 connect to the net via my computer's connection while it is in the docking station?

3) How good is the 3Guru? The road map feature? Can it guide you in a car with voice directions?

1 ) You can call when charging

2 ) No, but if they released the bluetooth patch you would.

3 ) Road map feature is crap, no voice directions.

Dont believe what 3 tell you, its all lies.
