    Have had a imate K-JAM (Qtec 9110) for the last three years, very happy with it as a calender/contacts/gps unit (with bluetooth adaptor) etc.

    Yesterday after a few days of dodgy connections to activesync the USB connector broke off and now rattles around loosely within the casing. So, once the current charge in the battery goes down then thats it - the device will be dead. It's probably not worth sending it away for repair.

    The wife has an iphone which I kinda like but might wait for a 3G version. Also, I don't use the phone part of a PDA/smartphone as I have a nokia 6300 which is a much neater phone and it fits my car kit.

    So, any suggestion for what to replace the K-JAM with?

    Preferences are easy to use calender/contacts/gps ability (already have seperate receiver unit)/email and surfing.

    Will there be a 3g itouch? (isn't the itouch just an iphone without the phone?)

    Thanks

    To be pedantic, its an iPod Touch or an iPhone. 3G iPhone is rumoured to be on its way by June this year-ish. Its the phone functions (or lack of) that seems to cause the problems. I got an E51 Nokia yesterday, GPS ready, opens word excel, wifi, you name it. I was going to wait and get an iPhone in the US in August, but inless its radically changed, I may stick with the Nokia its that good.
