no one is gonna try that for 5 mins if they have to buy hardware....

I wanna change my vote....

THAT is THE most retarded thing I have ever seen.....anyone that does THAT much email, definitely has access to a computer during the day...

I send/receive close to 150 a day, and that is completely out of my realm of understanding

That's why I didnt understand the whole "device" situation......

Are they going to make a belt clip for it?

I just want to be able to use BBM on my computer when I'm at home.

Sun,

That is all we all want, personally I think the Redfly is a "Failing" enterprise. Just would not want to carry both around and my notebook.

OK, I figured I would weigh in on this one...
I had a Redfly until I moved from WinMo phones to my Storm back in January. I was able to get it cheap and I will tell you it worked great with my Moto Q9m and any other WinMo phone I hooked it up to. Now, did I buy it because I am an email freak or airport dweller? No, I got it because I am a gadget nut and have to try everything new out there.

Pros:
will charge your phone when connected with a USB cable
can use a wired or wireless USB mouse
gives you a bigger screen for viewing emails, docs, web surfing
battery lasts FOREVER
holds no info so if lost or stolen it is not a security issue

Cons:
another gadget to lug around
you really need to have a wifi enabled smartphone to really make websurfing a good experience
limited to only what your smartphone can do - a netbook is way more usable
expensive - should be $99

Unfortunately I must agree with P3Designs that the Redfly is a "failing enterprise" because of the proliferation of netbooks and the newer and better smartphone hardware out there. Where Celio can/will come thru is with the software they have or are developing/testing that lets you do the Redfly thing with your regular notebook/netbook/desktop.

Thanks so much for an actual hands on review!

i will say i think if they made a complete shift to software development they could have a greater market...possibly, still not entirely sure if i would use it but i do know id want to play with it for atleast a day
