Review: Sony Ericsson W760
You get the full collection of messaging options: SMS, MMS, POP3 and IMAP email. Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync also is supported but no Instant Messaging is included.
The default text input is predictive text, even when you're inputting names (but not email addresses or passwords). If you're a multi-tapper, you'll have to disable a couple of predictive text settings, especially when you're inputting names. I tried to tap out my own last name with predictive text on, and it kept informing me after the first three letters of my last name that the "word" wasn't in the dictionary. I had to choose the "spell" option to insert the last three letters and add my name to the phone's dictionary.
Text messaging was straight forward; you are asked if it's okay to re-size an over-sized photo before attaching it to a message.
I experienced no trouble setting up both my AOL (POP3) and dot mac (IMAP) mail. The W760 asks if you want your email pushed from your account automatically, which worked perfectly. You can choose how many messages the phone displays up to 100, which is the default.
