    Nice phone, but I don't suppose there's anything like that in the states?

    What I want to (desperately) know is whether or not you can install third party (non Java) software on it? And whether or not it supports apps written in the Compact .NET framework? If it does I might just get one of these when or if they are made available over here in Sweden...
